Abstract
We consider the entanglement entropy for a subsystem in d+1 dimensional SU(N) lattice gauge theory. The 1+1 gauge theory is treated exactly and shows trivial behavior. Gauge theories in higher dimensions are treated within Migdal-Kadanoff approximation. We consider the gauge theory in the confinement phase. We demonstrate the existence of a nonanalytical change from the short distance to long distance form in the entanglement entropy in such systems (d>2) reminiscent of phase transition. The transition is manifested in nontrivial change in the renormalization group flow of character expansion coefficients defining the partition function.
