We study entanglement entropy of boundary states in a free bosonic conformal field theory. A boundary state can be thought of as composed of a particular combination of left and right-moving modes of the two-dimensional conformal field theory. We investigate the reduced density matrix obtained by tracing over the right-moving modes in various boundary states. We consider Dirichlet and Neumann boundary states of a free noncompact as well as a compact boson. The results for the entanglement entropy indicate that the reduced system can be viewed as a thermal CFT gas. Our findings are in agreement and generalize results in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory where coherent states can also be considered. In the compact case we verify that the entanglement entropy expressions are consistent with T-duality.

Entanglement asymmetry and symmetry defects in boundary conformal field theory
For 2D CFTs with boundary-only symmetry breaking, the entanglement asymmetry is log|G| with power-law corrections for finite groups, (dim G/2) log log(ℓ/ε) for compact Lie groups, and it drops from log|G| to 0 at t=ℓ/...
