• Abstract: We investigate separability and entanglement of Rokhsar-Kivelson (RK) states and resonating valence-bond (RVB) states. These states play a prominent role in condensed matter physics, as they can describe quantum spin liquids and quantum critical states of matter, depending on their underlying lattices. For dimer RK states on arbitrary tileable graphs, we prove the exact separability of the reduced density matrix of $k$ disconnected subsystems, implying the absence of bipartite and multipartite entanglement between the subsystems. For more general RK states with local constraints, we argue separability in the thermodynamic limit, and show that any local RK state has zero logarithmic negativity, even if the density matrix is not exactly separable. In the case of adjacent subsystems, we find an exact expression for the logarithmic negativity in terms of partition functions of the underlying statistical model. For RVB states, we show separability for disconnected subsystems up to exponentially small terms in the distance $d$ between the subsystems, and that the logarithmic negativity is exponentially suppressed with $d$. We argue that separability does hold in the scaling limit, even for arbitrarily small ratio $d/L$, where $L$ is the characteristic size of the subsystems. Our results hold for arbitrary lattices, and encompass a large class of RK and RVB states, which include certain gapped quantum spin liquids and gapless quantum critical systems.

• Entanglement negativity between separated regions in quantum critical systems [0.0]
  We study the entanglement between disjoint subregions in quantum critical systems through the lens of the logarithmic negativity. At small separations, the logarithmic negativity is big and displays universal behavior, but we show non-perturbatively that it decays faster than any power at large separations. The corresponding absence of distillable entanglement at large separations generalizes the 1d result, and indicates that quantum critical groundstates do not possess long-range bipartite entanglement, at least for bosons.

• Entanglement and localization in long-range quadratic Lindbladians [49.1574468325115]
  Signatures of localization have been observed in condensed matter and cold atomic systems. We propose a model of one-dimensional chain of non-interacting, spinless fermions coupled to a local ensemble of baths. We show that the steady state of the system undergoes a localization entanglement phase transition by tuning $p$ which remains stable in the presence of coherent hopping.

  We propose two schemes for generating Wigner-negative entangled states unconditionally in mechanical resonators. We show analytically that both schemes stabilize a Wigner-negative entangled state that combines the entanglement of a two-mode squeezed vacuum with a cubic nonlinearity. We then perform extensive numerical simulations to test the robustness of Wigner-negative entanglement attained by approximate CPE states stabilized in the presence of thermal decoherence.

  A structure composed of two parallel homogeneous layers is studied in the limit as their widths $l_j$ and $l_j$, and the distance between them $r$ shrinks to zero simultaneously. The existence of non-trivial bound states is proven in the squeezing limit, including the particular example of the squeezed potential in the form of the derivative of Dirac's delta function. The scenario how a single bound state survives in the squeezed system from a finite number of bound states in the finite system is described in detail.

For representative states of self-thermalizing systems, either eigenstates or states obtained by a long-time evolution of product states, negativity shows a sharp transition from an area-law scaling to a volume-law scaling.
