• Abstract: Anyon condensation that describes the transition between topological quantum field theories can be formulated in the language of tensor categories or that of operator algebras. We deploy the formalism of Doplicher-Haag-Roberts bimodules over quasi-local $\mathrm{C}^{*}$-algebras recently developed in [1] to investigate anyon condensation, which is associated with an extension of a certain operator algebra. The connection between notions in the two formulations is thereby made manifest in an intuitive, diagrammatic manner. An entropic order parameter, as the quantum information-theoretic measure characterising a condensation, is naturally defined, and we give a very simple proof of a bound on it.

• Relevant OTOC operators: footprints of the classical dynamics [68.8204255655161]
  The OTOC-RE theorem relates the OTOCs summed over a complete base of operators to the second Renyi entropy. We show that the sum over a small set of relevant operators, is enough in order to obtain a very good approximation for the entropy. In turn, this provides with an alternative natural indicator of complexity, i.e. the scaling of the number of relevant operators with time.

• Generalized Entanglement, Charges and Intertwiners [0.0]
  We define a measure of entanglement entropy as a measure of information erased under restriction to a subspace of observables. We argue that the correct entanglement measure in the presence of charges is the sum of two terms; one measuring the entanglement of charge-neutral operators, and the other measuring the contribution of the bi-local intertwiners.
