We use strong sub-additivity of entanglement entropy, Lorentz invariance, and the Markov property of the vacuum state of a conformal field theory to give a new proof of the irreversibility of the renormalization group in d=4 space-time dimensions -- the a-theorem. This extends the proofs of the c and F theorems in dime...
