Measurement of entanglement entropy in the two-dimensional Potts model using wavelet analysis

arXiv:1801.01678 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.97.052128

Abstract

We introduce a method to measure the entanglement entropy using a wavelet analysis. In the method we perform the two-dimensional Haar wavelet transform of configuration of Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) clusters. The configuration represents a direct snapshot of spin-spin correlations since spin degrees of freedom are traced out in FK representation. A snapshot of FK clusters loses image information at each coarse-graining process by the wavelet transform. We show that the loss of image information measures the entanglement entropy in the Potts model.
