Entanglement asymmetry in gauge theories: chiral anomaly in the finite temperature massless Schwinger model

Adrien Florio, Sara Murciano

The entanglement asymmetry has emerged in recent years as a practical quantity to study phases of matter. We present the first study of entanglement asymmetry in gauge theories by…

Entanglement asymmetry and symmetry defects in boundary conformal field theory

Yuya Kusuki, Sara Murciano, Hirosi Ooguri +1

A state in a quantum system with a given global symmetry, , can be sensitive to the presence of boundaries, which may either preserve or break this symmetry. In this work, we in…

Symmetry resolution of the computable cross-norm negativity of two disjoint intervals in the massless Dirac field theory

Andrea Bruno, Filiberto Ares, Sara Murciano +1

We investigate how entanglement in the mixed state of a quantum field theory can be described using the cross-computable norm or realignment (CCNR) criterion, employing a recently…

An entanglement asymmetry study of black hole radiation

Filiberto Ares, Sara Murciano, Lorenzo Piroli +1

Hawking's discovery that black holes can evaporate through radiation emission has posed a number of questions that with time became fundamental hallmarks for a quantum theory of gr…

Symmetry-resolved Entanglement Entropy, Spectra & Boundary Conformal Field Theory

Yuya Kusuki, Sara Murciano, Hirosi Ooguri +1

We perform a comprehensive analysis of the symmetry-resolved (SR) entanglement entropy (EE) for one single interval in the ground state of a D conformal field theory (CFT), th…

Finite temperature negativity Hamiltonians of the massless Dirac fermion

Federico Rottoli, Sara Murciano, Pasquale Calabrese

The negativity Hamiltonian, defined as the logarithm of a partially transposed density matrix, provides an operatorial characterisation of mixed-state entanglement. However, so far…

Full counting statistics and symmetry resolved entanglement for free conformal theories with interface defects

Luca Capizzi, Sara Murciano, Pasquale Calabrese

We consider the ground state of two species of one-dimensional critical free theories coupled together via a conformal interface. They have an internal global symmetry and w…

Entanglement resolution of free Dirac fermions on a torus

Alessandro Foligno, Sara Murciano, Pasquale Calabrese

Whenever a system possesses a conserved charge, the density matrix splits into eigenspaces associated to the each symmetry sector and we can access the entanglement entropy in a gi…

Rényi entropy and negativity for massless complex boson at conformal interfaces and junctions

Luca Capizzi, Sara Murciano, Pasquale Calabrese

We consider the ground state of a theory composed by species of massless complex bosons in one dimension coupled together via a conformal interface. We compute both the Rényi e…

Entanglement and symmetry resolution in two dimensional free quantum field theories

Sara Murciano, Giuseppe Di Giulio, Pasquale Calabrese

We present a thorough analysis of the entanglement entropies related to different symmetry sectors of free quantum field theories (QFT) with an internal U(1) symmetry. We provide e…
