We consider reflected entropy in a thermofield double state perturbed by a heavy operator insertion. For sufficiently early operator insertions the dual geometry can be described by a localized shock wave geometry. We calculate the entanglement wedge cross-section in this geometry for symmetric intervals and find that it matches precisely with the CFT result for sufficiently late times. Our result exhibits a plateau before going to zero, a behaviour similar to the one observed recently in the context of global quantum quenches. We find that at high temperatures this behaviour is properly captured by the line-tension picture.

  1. R\'enyi Entanglement of Purification and Half R\'enyi Reflected Entropy in Free Scalar Theory

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a free scalar lattice model, numerical calculations show Rényi entanglement of purification is at least half the Rényi reflected entropy for 0 < n < 2 in the small subsystems tested.
