We introduce a new method permitting the analytical determination of entanglement entropy (and related quantities) between configurations of a quantum field, which is either free or in interaction with a classical source, at two distinct…

We calculate the entanglement entropy of blocks of size x embedded in a larger system of size L, by means of a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. The complete entanglement entropy in this case is a sum of three terms. One…

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…

Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we examine entanglement entropy for a boundary theory deformed by a relevant operator and establish two results. The first is that if there is a contribution which is logarithmic in the UV cut-off, then the…

Entanglement entropy in causal sets offers a fundamentally covariant characterisation of quantum field degrees of freedom. A known result in this context is that the degrees of freedom consist of a number of contributions that have…

We study entanglement properties of systems with spontaneously broken continuous symmetry. We find that in addition to the expected area law behavior, the entanglement entropy contains a subleading contribution which diverges…

We study the structure of divergences and universal terms of the entanglement and R\'enyi entropies for singular regions. First, we show that for $(3+1)$-dimensional free conformal field theories (CFTs), entangling regions emanating from…

The entanglement entropy corresponding to a smooth region in general three-dimensional CFTs contains a constant universal term, $-F \subset S_{\text{EE}}$. For a disk region, $F|_{\rm disk}\equiv F_0$ coincides with the free energy on…
