Probing Spacetime Topology and Superposition with Accelerated Detectors

P. Poopathysankar, Lucas Hackl, Anwesha Chakraborty

We study entanglement harvested by Unruh DeWitt detectors following Rindler trajectories in compactified and superposed Minkowski spacetime. We consider different directions of acc…

Typical entanglement in anyon chains: Page curves beyond Lie group symmetries

Yale Yauk, Lucas Hackl, Alexander Hahn

We study bipartite entanglement statistics in one-dimensional anyon chains, whose Hilbert spaces are constrained by fusion rules of unitary pre-modular categories. Our setup genera…

Representation theory of inhomogeneous Gaussian unitaries

Jingqi Sun, Joshua Combes, Lucas Hackl

Gaussian unitaries, generated by quadratic Hamiltonians, are fundamental in quantum optics and continuous-variable computing. Their structures correspond to symplectic (bosons) and…

Random matrix prediction of average entanglement entropy in non-Abelian symmetry sectors

Anwesha Chakraborty, Lucas Hackl, Mario Kieburg

We study the average bipartite entanglement entropy of Haar-random pure states in quantum many-body systems with global symmetry, constrained to fixed total spin $…

Finite complexity of the de Sitter vacuum

Suddhasattwa Brahma, Lucas Hackl, Moatsem Hassan +1

The ER=EPR conjecture states that quantum entanglement between boundary degrees of freedom leads to the emergence of bulk spacetime itself. Although this has been tested extensivel…

Average entanglement entropy of a small subsystem in a constrained pure Gaussian state ensemble

Erik Aurell, Lucas Hackl, Mario Kieburg

We consider ensembles of pure Gaussian states parametrized by single-mode marginals and (optionally) specific mode-mode correlations. Such ensembles provide a model for the final s…
