Entanglement entropy is a notoriously difficult quantity to compute in strongly interacting gauge theories. Existing lattice replica methods have suffered from a severe signal-to-noise ratio problem, making high-precision studies prohibitively expensive. Our improved lattice method mitigates this situation and allows us to probe holographic predictions for the behavior of entanglement entropies in three- and four-dimensional Yang-Mills theories. We use this data for the numerical reconstruction of holographic bulk metrics.
