Evolution of Entanglement Entropy in One-Dimensional Systems

abstract
We study the unitary time evolution of the entropy of entanglement of a one-dimensional system between the degrees of freedom in an interval of length l and its complement, starting from a pure state which is not an eigenstate of the hamiltonian. We use path integral methods of quantum field theory as well as explicit computations for the transverse Ising spin chain. In both cases, there is a maximum speed v of propagation of signals. In general the entanglement entropy increases linearly with time $t$ up to t=l/2v, after which it saturates at a value proportional to l, the coefficient depending on the initial state. This behavior may be understood as a consequence of causality.

Proposes a duality between AdS3 gravity with dS2 branes and CFT2 with non-unitary boundary conditions to realize dS holography via complex saddles and state preparation in unitary AdS/CFT.
Defines tripartite complexity and complexity gap for three-subsystem states and reports that the gap has definite sign across holographic CV, Fisher-Rao, and Krylov measures, suggesting it as a building block for complexity inequalities.
Self-interactions in scalar and gauge theories suppress gravitational particle production in a quench modeling cosmic expansion, as computed with tensor networks.
Late-time linear growth of holographic TEE is governed by an interior critical surface Ac whose existence is guaranteed by NEC under Kasner asymptotics, with vacuum maximizing real growth and minimizing imaginary part.
Complexified exactly-marginal couplings produce solvable complex CFTs, with the Ising defect verified numerically in non-Hermitian chains.
Holographic dual of PT-symmetric BCFT via imaginary scalar on EOW brane shows spontaneous PT breaking and enhanced entanglement entropy growth in quenched state.
A form-factor-based framework is introduced for expectation values after an integrable boundary quantum quench in the Lee-Yang model and validated numerically via adapted truncated conformal space approach.
The Euclidean path integral on elliptic de Sitter defines a no-boundary density matrix whose entropies reduce to vertex operator correlators on non-orientable surfaces, with a one-dimensional global Hilbert space but nontrivial observer Fock spaces.
Establishes a threefold duality linking Krylov complexity growth rate to wormhole velocity and proper momentum in DSSYK holography, with higher moments capturing replica wormholes and Krylov entropy equaling parent-geometry von Neumann entropy after tracing baby universes.
Introduces crosscap quenches in CFTs and holographic models to derive universal entanglement entropy evolution, validated by numerics in spin systems.
A variational quantum SVD framework with classical orthogonality correction enables high-precision extraction of Schmidt components from bipartite states using shallow circuits and classical tensor-network post-processing.
The entanglement wedge polygon volume is proposed as a holographic probe of multipartite entanglement; in AdS3 it is topologically quantized, and a mixed-state generalization is constructed.
Introduces tube-sector probabilities from the center of boundary tube algebras to give optimal one-shot distinguishability of quantum states under generalized symmetries.
Genuine multi-entropy in heavy local quenches in 2D holographic CFTs is kinematically fixed to logarithms of rational functions of time, independent of heavy operator dimension, due to global saddle selection in the geodesic network.
Arnoldi coefficients approach unity exponentially in heating phases of driven CFTs but oscillate in non-heating phases; lattice realizations show distinct spectral and graph signatures despite similar CFT Krylov growth.
Dissipative protocols on quantum hardware prepare approximate thermal states for kagome AFIM up to 79 sites and AFHM via simulation, with circuit depth independent of size and linear in inverse temperature.
Lecture notes surveying entanglement entropy in QFT and holography, emphasizing physical aspects and the Ryu-Takayanagi formula.
