I discuss the von Neumann entanglement entropy in two-dimensional quantum Lifshitz criical point, namely in Rokhsar-Kivelson type critical wavefunctions. I follow the approach proposed by B. Hsu et al. [Phys. Rev. B 79, 115421 (2009)], but…

We study the gravitational edge modes (GrEMs) and gauge edge modes (GaEMs) in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity on a wiggling boundary. The wiggling effect manifests as a series of spacetime topological and bulk constraints for both conical…
It has recently been proposed that the entanglement entropy can be an order parameter of confinement/deconfinement transitions. To find a clear evidence, we introduce a new quantity called the geometric entropy, which is related to the…
