- Abstract: A recently proposed history formalism is used to define temporal entanglement
in quantum systems, and compute its entropy. The procedure is based on the
time-reduction of the history density operator, and allows a symmetrical
treatment of space and time correlations. Temporal entanglement entropy is
explicitly calculated in two simple quantum computation circuits.

We establish a connection between timelike and spacelike entanglement entropy.
For a diverse range of states, the timelike entanglement entropy is uniquely determined by a linear combination of the spacelike entanglement entropy and its first-order temporal derivative.

Entanglement entropy is the von Neumann entropy of quantum entanglement of pure states.
The relation between entanglement entropy and entanglement distillation has been known only for the setting, and the meaning of entanglement entropy in the single-copy regime has so far remained open.
Our results imply that entanglement entropy quantifies the amount of entanglement available in a bipartite pure state to be used for quantum information processing, giving results an operational meaning also in entangled single-copy setup.
