A holographic correspondence has been recently developed between higher spin theories in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space (AdS(3)) and two-dimensional Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) with extended symmetries. A class of such dualities involves SL(N, R) x SL(N, R) Chern-Simons gauge theories in the (2+1)-dimensional bulk spacetime, and CFTs with W-N symmetry algebras on the (1+1)-dimensional boundary. The topological character of the bulk theory forces one to reconsider standard geometric notions such as black hole horizons and entropy, as well as the usual holographic dictionary. Motivated by this challenge, in this note we present a proposal to compute entanglement entropy in the W-N CFTs via holographic methods. In particular, we introduce a functional constructed fromWilson lines in the bulk Chern-Simons theory that captures the entanglement entropy in the CFTs dual to standard AdS(3) gravity, corresponding to SL(2, R) x SL(2, R) gauge group, and admits an immediate generalization to the higher spin case. We explicitly evaluate this functional for several known solutions of the bulk theory, including charged black holes dual to thermal CFT states carrying higher spin charge, and show that it reproduces expected features of entanglement entropy, study whether it obeys strong subadditivity, and moreover show that it reduces to the thermal entropy in the appropriate limit.
