Entanglement on linked boundaries in Chern-Simons theory with generic gauge groups
read the original abstract
We study the entanglement for a state on linked torus boundaries in $3d$ Chern-Simons theory with a generic gauge group and present the asymptotic bounds of R\'enyi entropy at two different limits: (i) large Chern-Simons coupling $k$, and (ii) large rank $r$ of the gauge group. These results show that the R\'enyi entropies cannot diverge faster than $\ln k$ and $\ln r$, respectively. We focus on torus links $T(2,2n)$ with topological linking number $n$. The R\'enyi entropy for these links shows a periodic structure in $n$ and vanishes whenever $n = 0 \text{ (mod } \textsf{p})$, where the integer $\textsf{p}$ is a function of coupling $k$ and rank $r$. We highlight that the refined Chern-Simons link invariants can remove such a periodic structure in $n$.

Analyzing reduced density matrices in SU(2) Chern-Simons theory
For p-party pure states from T_{p,p} torus link complements in SU(2)_k Chern-Simons theory, the characteristic polynomials of (1|p-1)-reduced density matrices are monic polynomials with rational coefficients.
