Entanglement entropy in the two-dimensional random transverse field Ising model

Rong Yu, Hubert Saleur, Stephan Haas

The scaling behavior of the entanglement entropy in the two-dimensional random transverse field Ising model is numerically studied through the strong disordered renormalization group method. We find that the leading term of the entanglement entropy always linearly scales with the block size. However, besides this area law contribution, we find a subleading logarithmic correction at the quantum critical point. This correction is discussed from the point of view of an underlying percolation transition, both at finite and at zero temperature.

Implementations and applications of Renyi entanglement in Monte Carlo simulations of spin models

Stephen Inglis

Although entanglement is a well studied property in the context of quantum systems, the ability to measure it in Monte Carlo methods is relatively new. \nThrough measures of the Renyi entanglement entropy and mutual information one is able to examine and characterize criticality, pinpoint phase transitions, and probe universality. \nWe describe the most basic algorithms for calculating these quantities in straightforward Monte Carlo methods and state of the art techniques used in high performance computing. \nThis description emphasizes the core principal of these measurements and allows one to both build an intuition for these quantities and how they are useful in numerical studies. \n \nUsing the Renyi entanglement entropy we demonstrate the ability to detect thermal phase transitions in the Ising model and XY model without use of an order parameter. \nThe scaling near the critical point also shows signatures identifying the universality class of the model. \nImproved methods are explored using extended ensemble techniques that can increase calculation efficiency, and show good agreement with the standard approach. \nWe explore the "ratio trick" at finite temperature and use it to explore the quantum critical fan of the one dimensional transverse field Ising model, showing agreement with finite temperature and finite size scaling from field theory. \nThis same technique is used at zero temperature to explore the geometric dependence of the entanglement entropy and examine the universal scaling functions in the two dimensional transverse field Ising model. \nAll of this shows the multitude of ways in which the study of the Renyi entanglement entropy can be efficiently and practically used in conventional and exotic condensed matter systems, and should serve as a reference for those wishing to use it as a tool.

Entanglement entropy of disordered quantum wire junctions

Róbert Juhász, Johannes M. Oberreuter, Zoltán Zimborás

Abstract We consider different disordered lattice models composed of M linear chains glued together in a star-like manner, and study the scaling of the entanglement between one arm and the rest of the system using a numerical strong-disorder renormalization group method. For all studied models, the random transverse-field Ising model (RTIM), the random XX spin model, and the free-fermion model with random nearest-neighbor hopping terms, the average entanglement entropy is found to increase with the length L of the arms according to the form . For the RTIM and the XX model, the effective central charge is universal with respect to the details of junction, and only depends on the number M of arms. Interestingly, for the RTIM, decreases with M , whereas for the XX model it increases. For the free-fermion model, depends also on the details of the junction, which is related to the sublattice symmetry of the model. In this case, both increasing and decreasing tendency with M can be realized with appropriate junction geometries.
