I found an extended duality (triality) between Dirac fermions in periodic spacetime metrics, nonrelativistic fermions in gauge fields (e.g., Harper-Hofstadter model), and in periodic scalar fields on a lattice (e.g., Aubry-Andr\'e model).…

We compute Araki's relative entropy associated to a bounded interval $I=(a,b)$ between a thermal state and a coherent excitation of itself in the bosonic U(1)-current model, namely the (derivative of the) chiral boson. For this purpose we…

In three dimensions there is a logarithmically divergent contribution to the entanglement entropy which is due to the vertices located at the boundary of the region considered. In this work we find the corresponding universal coefficient…
