Entanglement entropy in all dimensions
It has long been conjectured that the entropy of quantum fields across boundaries scales as the boundary area. This conjecture has not been easy to test in spacetime dimensions greater than four because of divergences in the von Neumann entropy. Here we show that the Rényi entropy provides a convergent alternative, yielding a quantitative measure of entanglement between quantum field theoretic ...
متن کاملEntropy bounds in two dimensions
We discuss entropy bounds for a class of two-dimensional gravity models. While the Bekenstein bound can be proved to hold in general for weakly gravitating matter, the analogous of the holographic bound is not universal, but depends on the specific model considered. † e-mail: [email protected] It was observed by Bekenstein [1], that the entropy S contained in a weakly gravitating system must sa...
متن کاملEntanglement renormalization in two spatial dimensions.
We propose and test a scheme for entanglement renormalization capable of addressing large two-dimensional quantum lattice systems. In a translationally invariant system, the cost of simulations grows only as the logarithm of the lattice size; at a quantum critical point, the simulation cost becomes independent of the lattice size and infinite systems can be analyzed. We demonstrate the performa...
متن کاملEntanglement entropy of highly degenerate States and fractal dimensions.
We consider the bipartite entanglement entropy of ground states of extended quantum systems with a large degeneracy. Often, as when there is a spontaneously broken global Lie group symmetry, basis elements of the lowest-energy space form a natural geometrical structure. For instance, the spins of a spin-1/2 representation, pointing in various directions, form a sphere. We show that for subsyste...
متن کاملUniversal Terms for the Entanglement Entropy in 2+1 Dimensions
We show that the entanglement and alpha entropies corresponding to spatial polygonal sets in (2+1) dimensions contain a term which scales logarithmically with the cutoff. Its coefficient is a universal quantity consisting in a sum of contributions from the individual vertices. For the free scalar field this contribution is given by the trace anomaly in a three dimensional space with conical sin...
