Title: Reconstructing Entanglement Hamiltonian via Entanglement Eigenstates

Abstract

Entanglement Hamiltonian holds crucial clues in understanding quantum entanglement and its underlying phenomenon in strongly correlated systems. To date, however, a generic recipe to map out the operator form of entanglement Hamiltonian remains outstanding. In this work, we present a systematic framework which explicitly reconstructs entanglement Hamiltonian based on the information of one entangled mode of the reduced density matrix. Additionally, we demonstrate its successful application to quantum spin lattice models. The obtained entanglement Hamiltonians accurately recover the expectations from analytical theories and faithfully capture all features of the reduced density matrices, which are evidenced by the agreement between the original and reconstructed full entanglement spectra and the high density matrix fidelity.
