Entanglement entropy and flow in two-dimensional QCD: Parton and string duality

Journal Article Liu, Yizhuang ; Nowak, Maciej A. ; Zahed, Ismail - Physical Review D

We discuss quantum entanglement between fast and slow degrees of freedom, in a two-dimensional (2D) large � � gauge theory with Dirac quarks, quantized on the light front. Using the ’t Hooft wave functions, we construct the reduced density matrix for an interval in the momentum fraction � space, and calculate its von Neumann entropy in terms of structure functions, that are measured by deep inelastic scattering on mesons (hadrons in general). We found that the entropy is bounded by an area law with logarithmic divergences, proportional to the rapidity of the meson. The evolution of the entanglement entropy withmore »« less

Bipartite Entanglement Entropy in Massive Two-Dimensional Quantum Field Theory

Journal Article Doyon, Benjamin - Physical Review Letters

Recently, Cardy, Castro Alvaredo, and the author obtained the first exponential correction to saturation of the bipartite entanglement entropy at large region lengths in massive two-dimensional integrable quantum field theory. It depends only on the particle content of the model, and not on the way particles scatter. Based on general analyticity arguments for form factors, we propose that this result is universal, and holds for any massive two-dimensional model (also out of integrability). We suggest a link of this result with counting pair creations far in the past.

Entanglement branes in a two-dimensional string theory

Journal Article Donnelly, William ; Wong, Gabriel - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

What is the meaning of entanglement in a theory of extended objects such as strings? To address this question we consider the spatial entanglement between two intervals in the Gross-Taylor model, the string theory dual to two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory at large N. The string diagrams that contribute to the entanglement entropy describe open strings with endpoints anchored to the entangling surface, as first argued by Susskind. We develop a canonical theory of these open strings, and describe how closed strings are divided into open strings at the level of the Hilbert space. Here, we derive the modular Hamiltonian for themore »« less

Remarks on entanglement entropy in string theory

Journal Article Balasubramanian, Vijay ; Parrikar, Onkar - Physical Review. D.

Entanglement entropy for spatial subregions is difficult to define in string theory because of the extended nature of strings. Here we propose a definition for bosonic open strings using the framework of string field theory. The key difference (compared to ordinary quantum field theory) is that the subregion is chosen inside a Cauchy surface in the “space of open string configurations.” We first present a simple calculation of this entanglement entropy in free light-cone string field theory, ignoring subtleties related to the factorization of the Hilbert space. We reproduce the answer expected from an effective field theory point of view,more »« less
