We study entanglement in two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory, viewed as a quasi-topological model of emergent space. The most familiar class of states in this theory are states defined by Euclidean path integrals over Riemann surfaces.…

We consider the question of whether the leading contribution to the entanglement entropy in holographic CFTs is truly given by the expectation value of a linear operator as is suggested by the Ryu-Takayanagi formula. We investigate this…

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 given subspace, known as symmetry resolved entanglement (SRE).…

The entanglement entropy correlates two quantum sub-systems which are the part of the larger system. A logarithmic divergence term present in the entanglement entropy is universal in nature and directly proportional to the conformal…

The scaling of entanglement entropy with subsystem size fails to distinguish between gapped and gapless ground state of a scalar field theory in $d>1$ dimensions. We show that the scaling of angular momentum resolved entanglement entropy…
