abstract
We study a proper definition of R\'enyi mutual information (RMI) in quantum field theory as defined via the Petz R\'enyi relative entropy. Unlike the standard definition, the RMI we compute is a genuine measure of correlations between subsystems, as evidenced by its non-negativity and monotonicity under local operations. Furthermore, the RMI is UV finite and well-defined in the continuum limit. We develop a replica path integral approach for the RMI in quantum field theories and evaluate it explicitly in 1+1D conformal field theory using twist fields. We prove that it bounds connected correlation functions and check our results against exact numerics in the massless free fermion theory.

Phase transition in a doubly holographic model of closed $\mathbf{dS_{2} }$ spacetime
A doubly holographic dS2 model has a third extremal surface whose dominance creates a phase transition, but the surface's geodesic length can be negative.
