We study the ground-state entanglement Hamiltonian of several disjoint intervals for the massless Dirac fermion on the half-line. Its structure consists of a local part and a bi-local term that couples each point to another one in each other interval. The bi-local operator can be either diagonal or mixed in the fermionic chiralities and it is sensitive to the boundary conditions. The knowledge of such entanglement Hamiltonian is the starting point to evaluate the negativity Hamiltonian, i.e. the logarithm of the partially transposed reduced density matrix, which is an operatorial characterisation of entanglement of subsystems in a mixed states. We find that the negativity Hamiltonian inherits the structure of the corresponding entanglement Hamiltonian. We finally show how the continuum expressions for both these operators can be recovered from exact numerical computations in free-fermion chains.

Modular evolutions and causality in two-dimensional conformal field theory
Modular flows preserve causal spacetime ordering inside causal diamonds, but a bilocal modular Hamiltonian can violate local commutativity at spacelike distances.

Relating the modular Hamiltonian to two-point functions
For free scalar fields in any Gaussian state, the modular Hamiltonian restricted to a region is determined by the equal-time two-point functions X and Π via M=Π^{1/2}B^{-1}arcoth(2B)Π^{1/2}, N=Π^{-1/2}B arcoth(2B)Π^{-...
