abstract
We construct a novel flux tube entanglement entropy (FTE$^2$), defined as the excess entanglement entropy relative to the vacuum of a region of color flux stretching between a heavy quark-anti-quark pair in pure gauge Yang-Mills theory. We show that FTE$^2$ can be expressed in terms of correlators of Polyakov loops, is manifestly gauge-invariant, and therefore free of the ambiguities in computations of the entanglement entropy in gauge theories related to the choice of the center algebra. Employing the replica trick, we compute FTE$^2$ for $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory in (2+1)D and demonstrate that it is finite in the continuum limit. We explore the properties of FTE$^2$ for a half-slab geometry, which allows us to vary the width and location of the slab, and the extent to which the slab cross-cuts the color flux tube. Following the intuition provided by computations of FTE$^2$ in (1+1)D, and in a thin string model, we examine the extent to which our FTE$^2$ results can be interpreted as the sum of an internal color entropy and a vibrational entropy corresponding to the transverse excitations of the string.

Precise Determination of the Proton's Gluon Cloud Geometry from HERA data
A global fit to all 104 HERA exclusive J/ψ data points resolves the proton's small-x gluon hotspots into a 0.105 fm Gaussian core plus a 0.22 fm exponential halo.

Nonlocal Nonstabilizerness from Holographic Schwinger Pair Production
In holographic Schwinger pair production, the excess capacity of entanglement is √λ(d−2)/(d−1)³ — positive for d>2, zero for d=2 — so the produced pair carries nonlocal magic for d>2.

Momentum-projected hadron entanglement from lattice-QCD replica correlators
The vacuum-subtracted Rényi response of a momentum-projected hadron equals 1/(1-n) times the log of a replicated source-sink correlator on the cut geometry divided by the n-th power of the ordinary correlator.

Lattice studies of entanglement entropy in $O(N)$ models at finite densities
A worm-algorithm boundary-deformation method computes ∂ℓ entanglement entropy in finite-density O(N) models, with initial O(4) results in 3D and an internal consistency check.

Lattice QCD study of color correlations between quarks in static multiquark systems
Color correlations of quark pairs in static 2Q, 3Q, and 4Q systems all decay along the same universal curve when plotted against the assumed flux-tube path length, approaching random color at large separation.

Internal color contributions to flux tube entanglement entropy
Preliminary lattice data support the conjecture that the internal color entanglement entropy of a flux tube equals <F> log N_c, where <F> is the average number of boundary crossings.

Thermal and chemical response from entanglement entropy
The derivative of entanglement entropy with respect to region size equals the thermal entropy density, and a generalized Maxwell relation connects it to charge density — tested nonperturbatively in the 3D O(4) model.

Observation of Robust and Coherent Non-Abelian Hadron Dynamics on Noisy Quantum Processors
A 60-site SU(2) lattice gauge theory was run on 120 qubits, but the implemented dynamics approximate to non-interacting fermion hopping, and the abstract's claimed breathing-mode frequency is not extracted anywhere.
