Entanglement entropy of electromagnetic edge modes
William Donnelly, Aron C. Wall
The vacuum entanglement entropy of Maxwell theory, when evaluated by standard methods, contains an unexpected term with no known statistical interpretation. We resolve this two-dec…

Quantum Seismology
Eric G. Brown, William Donnelly, Achim Kempf +3
We propose a quantum mechanical method of detecting weak vibrational disturbances inspired by the protocol of entanglement farming. We consider a setup where pairs of atoms in thei…

Entanglement entropy and nonabelian gauge symmetry
William Donnelly
Entanglement entropy has proven to be an extremely useful concept in quantum field theory. Gauge theories are of particular interest, but for these systems the entanglement entropy…
