• Abstract: Topological entanglement entropy (TEE) is an efficient way to detect topological order in the ground state of gapped Hamiltonians. The seminal work of Kitaev and Preskill~\cite{preskill-kitaev-tee} and simultaneously by Levin and Wen~\cite{levin-wen-tee} proposed information quantities that can probe the TEE. In the present work, we explain why the subtraction schemes in the proposed information quantities~\cite{levin-wen-tee,preskill-kitaev-tee} work for the computation of TEE and generalize them for arbitrary number of subregions by explicitly noting the necessary conditions for an information quantity to capture TEE. Our conditions differentiate the probes defined by Kitaev-Preskill and Levin-Wen into separate classes. While there are infinitely many possible probes of TEE, we focus particularly on the cyclic quantities $Q_{2n+1}$ and multi-information $I_n$. We also show that the holographic entropy inequalities are satisfied by the quantum entanglement entropy of the non-degenerate ground state of a topologically ordered two-dimensional medium with a mass gap.

• Quantum entropies of realistic states of a topological insulator [0.0]
  We calculate the topological entropy suggested by Kitaev and Preskill for these states together with a new entropy based on a reduced density matrix. Our results show that the topological entropy is a constant independent of the parameters that characterize a topological state. We show how the reduced density matrix associated with both entropies are constructed from the pure state using positive maps and explicitly obtaining the Krauss operators.

• Universal lower bound on topological entanglement entropy [11.62855746863658]
  Entanglement entropies of two-dimensional gapped ground states are expected to satisfy an area law. In many models, the topological entanglement entropy (TEE) takes a universal value that characterizes the underlying topological phase. However, the TEE is not truly universal: it can differ even for two states related by constant-depth circuits, which are necessarily in the same phase.
