Quantum entanglement entropy has a geometric character. This is illustrated by the interpretation of Rindler space or black hole entropy as entanglement entropy. In general, one can define a "geometric entropy", associated with an event horizon as a boundary that concentrates a large number of quantum states. This allows one to connect with the "density matrix renormalization group" and to unveil its connection with the theory of quantum information. This renormalization group has been introduced in condensed matter physics in a heuristic manner, but it can be conceived as a method of compression of quantum information in the presence of a horizon. We propose generalizations to problems of interest in cosmology.
