In the context of tensor network states and holographic entanglement entropy, a rank tensor for a self-dual object (hence equipped with a non-degenerate inner product ) is called perfect if all of its tensor/hom-adjuncts
for are isometries.
In the HaPPY code tensor network the fact that all vertices carry a perfect tensor leads to the Ryu-Takayanagi formula for the corresponding entanglement entropies (see at holographic entanglement entropy for more).
