• Abstract: Quantum entanglement is a particularly useful characterization of topological orders which lack conventional order parameters. In this work, we study the entanglement in topologically ordered states between two arbitrary spatial regions, using two distinct mixed-state entanglement measures: the so-called "computable cross-norm or realignment" (CCNR) negativity, and the more well-known partial-transpose (PT) negativity. We first generally compute the entanglement measures: We obtain general expressions both in (2+1)D Chern-Simons field theories under certain simplifying conditions, and in the Pauli stabilizer formalism that applies to lattice models in all dimensions. While the field-theoretic results are expected to be topological and universal, the lattice results contain nontopological/nonuniversal terms as well. This raises the important problem of continuum-lattice comparison which is crucial for practical applications. When the two spatial regions and the remaining subsystem do not have triple intersection, we solve the problem by proposing a general strategy for extracting the topological and universal terms in both entanglement measures. Examples in the (2+1)D $Z_2$ toric code model are also presented. In the presence of trisection points, however, our result suggests that the subleading piece in the PT negativity is not topological and depends on the local geometry of the trisections, which is in harmonics with a technical subtlety in the field-theoretic calculation.

  Relative representations are an established approach to zero-shot model stitching. We introduce a normalization procedure in the relative transformation, resulting in invariance to non-isotropic rescalings and permutations. Second, we propose to deploy topological densification when fine-tuning relative representations, a topological regularization loss encouraging clustering within classes.

We establish mixed-state topological orders that are intrinsically mixed, i.e., that have no ground state counterpart. We conjecture that mixed-state topological orders are classified by premodular anyon theories.

  An entanglement measure based on the Fubini-Study metric has been recently introduced by Cocchiarella and co-workers. We present the Gaussian Entanglement Measure (GEM), a generalization of geometric entanglement measure for multimode Gaussian states. By providing a computable multipartite entanglement measure for systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that our definition can be used to obtain insights into a free bosonic field theory.

We identify different regimes of their evolution depending on the values of the field mass and the quench regularization parameter. We also investigate the local quenches in massive scalar field theory on a cylinder and show that they cause an erratic and chaotic-like evolution of observables.
