Abstract

We consider NN non-interacting fermions in a 2d2d harmonic potential of trapping frequency ω\omega and in a rotating frame at angular frequency Ω\Omega, with 0<ωΩω0<\omega - \Omega\ll \omega. At zero temperature, the fermions are in the non-degenerate lowest Landau level and their positions are in one to one correspondence with the eigenvalues of an N×NN\times N complex Ginibre matrix. For large NN, the fermion density is uniform over the disk of radius N\sqrt{N} centered at the origin and vanishes outside this disk. We compute exactly, for any finite NN, the R\'enyi entanglement entropy of order qq, Sq(N,r)S_q(N,r), as well as the cumulants of order pp, Nrpc\langle{N_r^{p}}\rangle_c, of the number of fermions NrN_r in a disk of radius rr centered at the origin. For N1N \gg 1, in the (extended) bulk, i.e., for 0<r/N<10 < r/\sqrt{N} < 1, we show that Sq(N,r)S_q(N,r) is proportional to the number variance Var(Nr){\rm Var}\,(N_r), despite the non-Gaussian fluctuations of NrN_r. This relation breaks down at the edge of the fermion density, for rNr \approx \sqrt{N}, where we show analytically that Sq(N,r)S_q(N,r) and Var(Nr){\rm Var}\,(N_r) have a different rr-dependence.
