We compute the entanglement entropy and the entanglement spectrum of the vacuum state in the massive Schwinger model at a finite $\theta$ angle. The $\theta$ term is implemented through a chirally rotated lattice Hamiltonian that preserves…

It was recently shown that, in general, the von Neumann spin entropy of fermionic particles is not invariant under Lorentz boosts. We show that an analogous result can be recovered (at the lowest order of $v^2 /c^2$) using plain…
