• Abstract summary: We study the entanglement Hamiltonian for free-fermion chains with a particular form of inhomogeneity. We show that this deformation is interpreted as a local inverse temperature and can be obtained in the continuum limit. Using this prediction, the properly rescaled eigenvalues of the commuting operator are found to provide a very good approximation of the entanglement spectrum and entropy.

• Abstract: We study the entanglement Hamiltonian for free-fermion chains with a particular form of inhomogeneity. The hopping amplitudes and chemical potentials are chosen such that the single-particle eigenstates are related to discrete orthogonal polynomials of the Askey scheme. Due to the bispectral properties of these functions, one can construct an operator which commutes exactly with the entanglement Hamiltonian and corresponds to a linear or parabolic deformation of the physical one. We show that this deformation is interpreted as a local inverse temperature and can be obtained in the continuum limit via methods of conformal field theory. Using this prediction, the properly rescaled eigenvalues of the commuting operator are found to provide a very good approximation of the entanglement spectrum and entropy.

  We study the entanglement Hamiltonian for a spherical domain in the ground state of a nonrelativistic free-fermion gas in arbitrary dimensions. We show that the entanglement spectrum in each sector is identical to that of a hopping chain in a linear potential, with the angular momentum playing the role of the subsystem boundary.

We have the required unperturbed eigenvalues ($E_n(0)$) analytically obtained by using similarities between the expressions obtained from unperturbed Hamiltonian(s) for two fields and obtained from the ones for one-dimensional generalized Morse field.

  Kitaev spin models are well known for being exactly solvable in a certain parameter regime via a mapping to free fermions. We use classical simulations to explore a novel variational ansatz that takes advantage of this fermionic representation. We also comment on the implications of our results for simulating non-Abelian anyons on quantum computers.

This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
