Interacting CFTs for all couplings: Thermal versus Entanglement Entropy at Large $N$
Abstract
In this paper, I calculate the large limit of marginal models with non-polynomial potentials in arbitrary odd dimensions . This results in a new class of interacting pure conformal field theories (CFTs) in for any . Similarly, in I calculate the thermal entropy for all couplings on for . In 2+1 dimensions I find the strong-to-weak coupling ratio of the thermal entropy to be 4/5, matching recent results, and further extend this analysis to higher odd dimensions. Next, I calculated the vacuum entanglement entropy on for all couplings in arbitrary odd in the large N limit. I find the vacuum entanglement entropy on to be not only solvable but also constant for all couplings . Thus, in the large limit, the vacuum entanglement entropy on for odd is constant for all , in contrast to the thermal entropy which is shown to also be monotonically decreasing with in .
