چکیده
We consider random singlet phases of spin-$\frac{1}{2}$, random, antiferromagnetic spin chains, in which the universal leading-order divergence $\frac{\ln 2}{3}\ln\ell$ average entanglement entropy a block $\ell$ spins, as well closely related leading term $\frac{2}{3}l^{-2}$ distribution lengths are known by strong-disorder renormalization group (SDRG) method. Here, we address question how large subleading terms above quantities are. By an analytical calculation performed along special SDRG trajectory XX chain, identify series integer powers $1/l$ singlet-length with $\frac{4}{3}l^{-3}$. Our numerical analysis shows that, for fixed point, is generally $O(l^{-3})$ non-universal coefficient and also reveals half-integer powers: $l^{-7/2}$ $l^{-5/2}$ XXX points, respectively. present originating approach can be interpreted calculated chain from one-particle states equivalent free-fermion model. These results imply that next to logarithmic one $O(\ell^{-1})$ point $O(\ell^{-1/2})$ coefficients. For model, where comparison exact diagonalization possible, order confirmed but find fails provide correct coefficient.

Entanglement entropy in aperiodic singlet phases
We study the average entanglement entropy of blocks of contiguous spins in aperiodic XXZ chains which possess an aperiodic singlet phase at least in a certain limit of the coupling ratios. In this phase, where the ground state constructed by a real space renormalization group method, consists (asymptotically) of independent singlet pairs, the average entanglement entropy is found to be a piecew...
متن کاملValence bond entanglement and fluctuations in random singlet phases
The ground state of the uniform antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain can be viewed as a strongly fluctuating liquid of valence bonds, while in disordered chains these bonds lock into random singlet states on long-length scales. We show that this phenomenon can be studied numerically, even in the case of weak disorder, by calculating the mean value of the number of valence bonds leaving a...

We calculate the universal flavor-singlet radiative QED corrections to unpolarized lepton scattering applicable to general differential scattering cross sections, involving charged fermions or photons in initial or final states. The radiators are derived to O((α ln(Q/mf )) 5) in analytic form. Numerical illustrations are given.
متن کاملThermal corrections to entanglement entropy from holography
We use holographic techniques to calculate the first thermal correction to the entanglement entropy of a cap-like region of a CFT defined on a sphere, successfully reproducing the field theory result. Since this is an order-one correction to the entropy in the large-N expansion, quantum corrections to the holographic entanglement entropy formula are essential. The bulk calculation is made tract...
