• Title: Entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals and spin structures in interacting chains in and out of equilibrium
• Authors: Vanja Mari\'c, Saverio Bocini, Maurizio Fagotti
• Abstract summary: We take the paradigm of interacting spin chains, the Heisenberg spin-$frac12$ XXZ model, as a reference system. An example is the fermionic analogue of the gapless XXZ Hamiltonian, which, in a continuum scaling limit, is described by the massless Thirring model. We show how to use the entropies of spin blocks to unveil the spin structures of the underlying massless Thirring model.

• Abstract: We take the paradigm of interacting spin chains, the Heisenberg spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ model, as a reference system and consider interacting models that are related to it by Jordan-Wigner transformations and restrictions to sub-chains. An example is the fermionic analogue of the gapless XXZ Hamiltonian, which, in a continuum scaling limit, is described by the massless Thirring model. We work out the R\'enyi-$\alpha$ entropies of disjoint blocks in the ground state and extract the universal scaling functions describing the R\'enyi-$\alpha$ tripartite information in the limit of infinite lengths. We consider also the von Neumann entropy, but only in the limit of large distance. We show how to use the entropies of spin blocks to unveil the spin structures of the underlying massless Thirring model. Finally, we speculate about the tripartite information after global quenches and conjecture its asymptotic behaviour in the limit of infinite time and small quench. The resulting conjecture for the ``residual tripartite information'', which corresponds to the limit in which the intervals' lengths are infinitely larger than their (large) distance, supports the claim of universality recently made studying noninteracting spin chains. Our mild assumptions imply that the residual tripartite information after a small quench of the anisotropy in the gapless phase of XXZ is equal to $-\log 2$.

• The scaling law of the arrival time of spin systems that present pretty good transmission [49.1574468325115]
  The pretty good transmission scenario implies that the probability of sending one excitation from one extreme of a spin chain to the other can reach values arbitrarily close to the unity just by waiting a time long enough. Some works suggest that the time $t_varepsilon$ at which the pretty good transmission takes place scales as $1/(|varepsilon|)f(N)$. We show that the exponent is not a simple function of the chain length but a power law of the number of linearly independent irrational eigenvalues of the one-excitation block of the Hamiltonian

  We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.
