Entanglement entropy is a useful probe of compressible quantum matter because it can detect the existence of Fermi surfaces, both of microscopic fermionic degrees of freedom and of "hidden" gauge charged fermions. Much recent attention has…

Given a unital inclusion of simple $C^*$-algebras equipped with a conditional expectation of index-finite type, we study Fourier transforms and rotation operators and introduce the reflection operators on the relative commutants. We prove…

Beginning with the work of Landau, Pollak and Slepian in the 1960s on time-band limiting, commuting pairs of integral and differential operators have played a key role in signal processing, random matrix theory and integrable systems.…

We compute the single-interval Renyi entropy (replica partition function) for free fermions in 1+1d at finite temperature and finite spatial size by two methods: (i) using the higher-genus partition function on the replica Riemann surface,…

In this paper, we derive a new generalisation of the strong subadditivity of the entropy to the setting of general conditional expectations onto arbitrary finite-dimensional von Neumann algebras. The latter inequality, which we call…

We consider the algebra of observables of perturbative quantum gravity in the exterior of a stationary black hole or the static patch of de Sitter spacetime. It was previously argued that the backreaction of gravitons on the spacetime…

We study bipartite entanglement entropies in the ground and excited states of model fermion systems, where a staggered potential, $\mu_s$, induces a gap in the spectrum. Ground state entanglement entropies satisfy the `area law', and the…
