A series expansion for Heckman-Opdam hypergeometric functions $\varphi_\lambda$ is obtained for all $\lambda \in \mathfrak a^*_{\mathbb C}.$ As a consequence, estimates for $\varphi_\lambda$ away from the walls of a Weyl chamber are…
Entanglement entropy for a spatial partition of a quantum system is studied in theories which admit a dual description in terms of the anti-de Sitter (AdS) gravity one dimension higher. A general proof of the holographic formula which…
We present some exact results about universal quantities derived from the local density matrix, for a free massive Dirac field in two dimensions. We first find the trace of powers of the density matrix in a novel fashion, which involves the…
Few facts are known about the entanglement entropy for disconnected regions in quantum field theory. We study here the property of extensivity of the mutual information, which holds for free massless fermions in two dimensions. We uncover…
We study the relative entropy, in the sense of Araki, for the representation of a self-dual CAR algebra $\mathfrak{A}_{SDC}(\mathcal{H},\Gamma)$. We notice, for a specific choice of $f \in \mathcal{H}$, that the associated element in…

Recently, the occurrence of exponential Fermi acceleration has been reported in a rectangular billiard with an oscillating bar inside [K. Shah, D. Turaev, and V. Rom-Kedar, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 81}, 056205 (2010)]. In the present work, we…

Topological phases are characterized by their entanglement properties, which is manifest in a direct relation between entanglement spectra and edge states discovered by Li and Haldane. We propose to leverage the power of synthetic quantum…
For both cases with and without interactions, bipartite entanglement of two-fermions from a Fermi gas in a trap is investigated. We show how the entanglement depends on the locations of the two fermions and the total number of particles.…
In this article we consider a large system of fermions in a combined mean-field and semiclassical limit, in three dimensions. We investigate the convergence of the Wigner function of the ground state, towards the classical Thomas-Fermi…
Entanglement entropy is now widely accepted as having deep connections with quantum gravity. It is therefore desirable to understand it in the context of causal sets, especially since they provide in a natural manner the UV cutoff needed to…
We introduce a modification of Voiculescu's free entropy which coincides with the liminf variant of Voiculescu's free entropy on extremal states, but is a concave upper semi-continuous function on the trace state space. We also extend the…
Entanglement is typically created via systematic intervention in the time evolution of an initially unentangled state, which can be achieved by coherent control, carefully tailored non-demolition measurements, or dissipation in the presence…
We investigate the behavior of the entanglement entropy of a confining gauge theory near cosmological singularities using gauge/gravity duality. As expected, the coefficients of the UV divergent terms are given by simple geometric…
The theory of embedded random surfaces, equivalent to two--dimensional quantum gravity coupled to matter, is reviewed, further developed and partly generalized to four dimensions. It is shown that the action of the Liouville field theory…
We present a general approach to quantum entanglement and entropy that is based on algebras of observables and states thereon. In contrast to more standard treatments, Hilbert space is an emergent concept, appearing as a representation…
We consider the universal part of entanglement entropy across a plane in flat space for a QFT, giving a non-perturbative expression in terms of a spectral function. We study the change in entanglement entropy under a deformation by a…
