Two-cylinder entanglement entropy under a twist
Xiao Chen, William Witczak-Krempa, Thomas Faulkner +1
We study the von Neumann and Rényi entanglement entropy (EE) of scale-invariant theories defined on tori in 2+1 and 3+1 spacetime dimensions. We focus on spatial bi-partitions of t…
Gravitational dual of the Rényi twist displacement operator
Srivatsan Balakrishnan, Souvik Dutta, Thomas Faulkner
We give a recipe for computing correlation functions of the displacement operator localized on a spherical or planar higher dimensional twist defect using AdS/CFT. Such twist opera…
Entanglement Entropy and Mutual Information of Circular Entangling Surfaces in 2 + 1-dimensional Quantum Lifshitz Model
Tianci Zhou, Xiao Chen, Thomas Faulkner +1
We investigate the entanglement entropy (EE) of circular entangling cuts in the 2+1-dimensional quantum Lifshitz model, whose ground state wave function is a spatially conformal in…
Modular Hamiltonians for Deformed Half-Spaces and the Averaged Null Energy Condition
Thomas Faulkner, Robert G. Leigh, Onkar Parrikar +1
We study modular Hamiltonians corresponding to the vacuum state for deformed half-spaces in relativistic quantum field theories on . We show that in addition to…
