We consider a conformal field theory in two dimensions in which an external perturbation is placed. We study the energy flux and entanglement entropy for one, two and multiple intervals and give a suggestion relating the two in some cases.…

We evaluate one-interval R\'enyi entropy and entanglement entropy for the excited states of two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) on a cylinder, and examine their differences from the ones for the thermal state. We assume the…

We use the conformal invariance and the holographic correspondence to fully specify the dependence of entanglement entropy on the extrinsic geometry of the 2d surface $\Sigma$ that separates two subsystems of quantum strongly coupled…

R\'enyi entropies, $S_n$, admit a natural generalization in the presence of global symmetries. These "charged R\'enyi entropies" are functions of the chemical potential $\mu$ conjugate to the charge contained in the entangling region and…

We show that for a d-dimensional CFT in flat space, the Renyi entropy S_q across a spherical entangling surface has the following property: in an expansion around q=1, the first correction to the entanglement entropy is proportional to C_T,…

Entanglement criteria for an $n$-partite quantum system with continuous variables are formulated in terms of R\'{e}nyi entropies. R\'{e}nyi entropies are widely used as a good information measure due to many nice properties. Derived…

We study the entanglement and Renyi entropies of two disjoint intervals in minimal models of conformal field theory. We use the conformal block expansion and fusion rules of twist fields to define a systematic expansion in the elliptic…

An entanglement Renyi entropy for a spatial partition of a system is studied in conformal theories which admit a dual description in terms of an anti-de Sitter gravity. The divergent part of the Renyi entropy is computed in 4D conformal N=4…
