We investigate the real time dynamics of the radiation produced by a local quench in a $d$-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) with $d>2$. Using the interpretation of the higher-dimensional twist operator as a conformal defect, we…
The scaling of entanglement with subsystem size encodes key information about phases and criticality, but the von Neumann entropy is costly to access in experiments and simulations, often requiring full state tomography. The second R\'enyi…

The entanglement entropy (EE) can measure the entanglement between a spatial subregion and its complement, which provides key information about quantum states. Here, rather than focusing on specific regions, we study how the entanglement…

Renyi entropy and central charge, $C_T$, are calculated for a coexact p--form on an even sphere with particular reference to the conformally invariant case. It is shown, for example, that the entanglement entropy is minus the standard…

Quantum entanglement is one essential element to characterize many-body quantum systems. However, the entanglement measures are mostly discussed in Hermitian systems. Here, we propose a natural extension of entanglement and R\'enyi…
We compute the R\'enyi mutual information of two disjoint spheres in free massless scalar theory in even dimensions higher than two. The spherical twist operator in a conformal field theory can be expanded into the sum of local primary…
The Ryu-Takayanagi formula relates the entanglement entropy in a conformal field theory to the area of a minimal surface in its holographic dual. We show that this relation can be inverted for any state in the conformal field theory to…
We develop a nonequilibrium increment method in quantum Monte Carlo simulations to obtain the R\'enyi entanglement entropy of various quantum many-body systems with high efficiency and precision. To demonstrate its power, we show the…
The symmetry-resolved R\'enyi entanglement entropy is the R\'enyi entanglement entropy of each symmetry sector of a density matrix $\rho$. This experimentally relevant quantity is known to have rich theoretical connections to conformal…
In this work, a canonical method to compute entanglement entropy is proposed. We show that for two-dimensional conformal theories defined in a torus, a choice of moduli space allows the typical entropy operator of the TFD to provide the…
We consider conformal field theories in 1+1 dimensions with W-algebra symmetries, deformed by a chemical potential \mu for the spin-three current. We show that the order \mu^2 correction to the Re'nyi and entanglement entropies of a single…
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…
In Conformal Field Theories with a gravitational AdS dual it is possible to calculate the entanglement entropy of a region $A$ holographically by using the Ryu-Takayanagi formula. In this work we consider systems that are in a pure state…

We consider the generalization of the Araki-Uhlmann formula for relative entropy to Petz-R\'enyi relative entropy. We compute this entropy for a free scalar field in the Minkowski wedge between the vacuum and a coherent state, as well as…
We use the thermal effective theory to prove that, for the vacuum state in any conformal field theory in $d$ dimensions, the $n$-th R\'enyi entropy $S_A^{(n)}$ behaves as $S_A^{(n)} = \frac{f}{(2\pi n)^{d-1}} \frac{ {\rm Area}(\partial…
