Measuring entanglement using quantum quenches

John Cardy

We show that block entanglement entropies in one-dimensional systems close to a quantum critical point can in principle be measured in terms of the population of low-lying energy l…

Entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals in conformal field theory II

Pasquale Calabrese, John Cardy, Erik Tonni

We continue the study of the entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals in conformal field theories that we started in J. Stat. Mech. (2009) P11001. We compute Trρ_A^n for any…
