Holographic Rényi relative divergence in JT gravity

Abstract

We holographically compute the Rényi relative divergence $D_{\alpha }({\rho }_{+}||{\rho }_{-})$ between two density matrices ${\rho }_{+},{\rho }_{-}$ prepared by path integrals with constant background fields ${\lambda }_{\pm }$ coupled to a marginal operator in JT gravity. Our calculation is non perturbative in the difference between two sources ${\lambda }_{+}-{\lambda }_{-}$. When this difference is large, the bulk geometry becomes a black hole with the maximal temperature allowed by the Rényi index $\alpha$. In this limit, we find an analytic expression of the Rényi relative divergence, which is given by the on shell action of the back reacted black hole plus the contribution coming from the discontinuous change of the background field.
