Quantum entanglement is key to understanding correlations and emergent phenomena in quantum many-body systems. For $N$ qubits (distinguishable spin-$1/2$ particles) in a pure quantum state, many-body entanglement can be characterized by the…

Symmetry and entanglement are two fundamental concepts in quantum many-body physics. Their interplay is captured by symmetry-resolved entanglement, which decomposes the total entanglement into contributions from different symmetry sectors.…

We consider a quantum many-body system made of $N$ interacting $S{=}1/2$ spins on a lattice, and develop a formalism which allows to extract, out of conventional magnetic observables, the quantum probabilities for any selected spin pair to…

We study the R\'enyi entropies in the spin-$1/2$ anisotropic Heisenberg chain after a quantum quench starting from the N\'eel state. The quench action method allows us to obtain the stationary R\'enyi entropies for arbitrary values of the…

The quantum mechanics formalism introduced new revolutionary concepts challenging our everyday perceptions. Arguably, quantum entanglement, which explains correlations that cannot be reproduced classically, is the most notable of them.…

It is known that the variance and entropy of quantum observables decompose into intrinsically quantum and classical contributions. Here a general method of constructing quantum-classical decompositions of resources such as uncertainty is…

It has long been conjectured that the entropy of quantum fields across boundaries scales as the boundary area. This conjecture has not been easy to test in spacetime dimensions greater than four because of divergences in the von Neumann…
