The scaling of entanglement entropy with subsystem size fails to distinguish between gapped and gapless ground state of a scalar field theory in $d>1$ dimensions. We show that the scaling of angular momentum resolved entanglement entropy…

The $\alpha$-R\'enyi entropy in the gapless models have been obtained by the conformal field theory, which is exact in the thermodynamic limit. However, the calculation of its finite size effect (FSE) is challenging. So far only the FSE in…

We present general four-loop template $\beta$-functions and anomalous field dimensions for renormalisable scalar-fermion theories in three dimensions. By imposing $\mathcal{N}=1$ and $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry, we obtain relations…

We calculate numerically the logarithmic contribution to the entanglement entropy of a cylindrical region in three spatial dimensions for both, free scalar and Dirac fields. The coefficient is universal and proportional to the type $c$…

Conformal invariance often accompanies criticality in Hermitian systems. However, its fate in non-Hermitian settings is less clear, especially near exceptional points where the Hamiltonian becomes non-diagonalizable. Here we investigate…

We study nonchiral wave functions for systems with continuous spins obtained from the conformal field theory (CFT) of a free, massless boson. In contrast to the case of discrete spins, these can be treated as bosonic Gaussian states, which…

The entanglement entropy correlates two quantum sub-systems which are the part of the larger system. A logarithmic divergence term present in the entanglement entropy is universal in nature and directly proportional to the conformal…
