abstract

We review the imaginary time path integral approach to the quench dynamics of conformal field theories. We show how this technique can be applied to the determination of the time dependence of correlation functions and entanglement entropy for both global and local quenches. We also briefly review other quench protocols. We carefully discuss the limits of applicability of these results to realistic models of condensed matter and cold atoms.

Symmetry-Resolved Entanglement Entropy from Heat Kernels

hep-th · 2025-11-03 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

An improved heat kernel framework with phase-factor reconstruction computes symmetry-resolved entanglement entropy for charged systems and derives a cMERA flow equation that agrees with CFT and holographic calculations.

Random matrix theory signatures in free field theory

hep-th · 2025-07-24 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

In finite-volume massive free scalar field theory after local quench, spacing ratios of two-point function extrema follow GOE statistics and an extrema-based form factor shows RMT dip-ramp-plateau.

Crosscap Quenches and Entanglement Evolution

hep-th · 2024-12-24 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Introduces crosscap quenches in CFTs and holographic models to derive universal entanglement entropy evolution, validated by numerics in spin systems.
