Entanglement growth after inhomogenous quenches
Entanglement growth after inhomogenous quenches
We study the growth of entanglement in quantum systems with a conserved quantity exhibiting diffusive transport, focusing on how initial inhomogeneities are imprinted on the entropy. We propose a simple effective model, which generalizes the minimal cut picture of Jonay, Huse, and Nahum [arXiv:1803.00089] in such a way that the …
