In this article, we explore properties of pseudo entropy [1] in quantum field theories and spin systems from several approaches. Pseudo entropy is a generalization of entanglement entropy such that it depends on both an initial and final state and has a clear gravity dual via the AdS/CFT. We numerically analyze a class of free scalar field theories and the XY spin model. This reveals the basic properties of pseudo entropy in many-body systems, namely, the area law behavior, the saturation behavior, and the non-positivity of difference between the pseudo entropy and averaged entanglement entropy in the same quantum phase. In addition, our numerical analysis finds an example where the strong subadditivity of pseudo entropy gets violated. Interestingly we find that the non-positivity of the difference can be violated only if the initial and final states belong to different quantum phases. We also present analytical arguments which support these properties by both conformal field theoretic and holographic calculations. When the initial and final states belong to different topological phases, we expect a gapless mode localized along an interface, which enhances the pseudo entropy leading to the violation of the non-positivity of the difference. Moreover, we also compute the time evolution of pseudo entropy after a global quench, were we observe that the imaginary part of pseudo entropy shows interesting characteristc behavior.

Imaginary pseudo entropy encodes temporal orientation
The calibrated pseudo-Rényi phase and replica visibility exactly equal the Helstrom trace distance between forward and backward ancilla states, giving a bounded operational meaning to imaginary pseudo entropy.

Timelike Entanglement First Law and Linearized Field Equations in Higher Curvature Gravity
Timelike entanglement first law holds in Lovelock gravity about AdS, with both entropy and modular Hamiltonian variations carrying the same coupling factor that renormalizes Newton's constant in the linearized equations.

For timelike boundary regions, the entanglement first law ΔS = Δ⟨H⟩ is equivalent, by the paper's proof, to the linearized Einstein equations around AdS.

Timelike Holographic Complexity
Timelike subregion complexity within the holographic Complexity=Volume conjecture is computed for pure AdS and AdS black branes; it is purely real and shares the spacelike UV divergence structure.
