Entanglement at the interplay between single- and many-bodyness

Abstract

The tensor network representation of the ground state of a Bethe chain is analytically obtained and studied in relation to its entanglement distribution. Block entanglement displays a maximum at the interplay between single- and many-bodyness. In systems of two fermions, tensor networks describing ground states of interacting Hamiltonians cannot be written as a sequence of next-neighbor unitaries applied on an uncorrelated state, but need four-next-neighbor unitaries in addition. This differs from the idea that the ground state can be obtained as a sequence of next-neighbor operations applied on a tensor network. The work uncovers the transcendence of the notion of many-bodyness in the implementation of protocols based on matrix product states.
