Generalized entanglement entropies in two-dimensional conformal field theory
Generalized entanglement entropies in two-dimensional conformal field theory
We introduce and study generalized R\'enyi entropies defined through the traces of products of ${\rm Tr}_B (|\Psi_i\rangle\langle \Psi_j|)$ where $|\Psi_i\rangle$ are eigenstates of a two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT). When $|\Psi_i\rangle=|\Psi_j\rangle$ these objects reduce to the standard R\'enyi entropies of the eigenstates of the CFT. Exploiting the path integral formalism, …
