In this letter we define a natural generalization of the von Neumann entropy to multiple parties that is symmetric with respect to all the parties. We call this measure multi-entropy. We show that for conformal field theories with holographic duals, the multi-entropy is computed by the area of an appropriate "soap-film" anchored on the boundary. We conjecture the quantum version of this prescription that takes into account the sub-leading corrections in G_N.

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Multi-entropy exhibits a structural obstruction to replica symmetry breaking in random tensor networks due to incompatible boundary permutations in the replica hypercube, unlike entanglement negativity.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Genuine multi-entropy in the toric code reduces to topological entanglement entropy for stabilizer states at low replica index but captures independent topological data at n=4 and for non-stabilizer states.

    In time-reflection-symmetric holographic states, I3 is necessary for non-vanishing four-party entanglement signals, bounds multi-entropy measures, and implies vanishing of Q4.

    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 g...
