We derive the timescale for two initially pure subsystems to become entangled with each other through an arbitrary Hamiltonian that couples them. The entanglement timescale is inversely proportional to the "correlated uncertainty" between…
We consider fermionic chains where the two halves are either metals with different bandwidths or a metal and an insulator. Both are coupled together by a special bond. We study the ground-state entanglement entropy between the two pieces,…
We argue that the entanglement entropy for a very small subsystem obeys a property which is analogous to the first law of thermodynamics when we excite the system. In relativistic setups, its effective temperature is proportional to the…
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…

An interacting lattice model describing the subspace spanned by a set of strongly-correlated bands is rigorously coupled to density functional theory to enable ab initio calculations of geometric and topological material properties. The…
We describe a minimal model, based on a spin only Hamiltonian with a single energy scale for itinerant electron metamagnetism. Within this model the metamagnetic critical field is directly proportional to the temperature where a peak in the…
We have found that for a wide range of two-qubit Hamiltonians the canonical-ensemble thermal state is entangled in two distinct temperature regions. In most cases the ground state is entangled; however we have also found an example where…
