Universal Decay of Mutual Information and Conditional Mutual Information in Gapped Pure- and Mixed-State Quantum Matter

Abstract

For spin and fermionic systems in any spatial dimension, we establish that the superpolynomial decay behavior of mutual information and conditional mutual information is a universal property of gapped pure- and mixed-state phases; i.e., all systems in such a phase possess this property if one system in this phase possesses this property. We further demonstrate that the (conditional) mutual information indeed decays superpolynomially in a large class of phases, including chiral phases. As a by-product, we sharpen the notion of mixed-state phases.
