abstract

In this work, we study the real-time evolution of pseudo-(R\'enyi) entropy, a generalization of entanglement entropy, in two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs). We focus on states obtained by acting primary operators located at different space points or their linear combinations on the vacuum. We show the similarities and differences between the pseudo-(R\'enyi) entropy and entanglement entropy. For excitation by a single primary operator, we analyze the behaviors of the 2nd pseudo-R\'enyi entropy in various limits and find some symmetries associated with the subsystem and the positions of the insertion operators. For excitation by linear combinations, the late time limit of the $n$th pseudo-R\'enyi entropy shows a simple form related to the coefficients of the combinations and R\'enyi entropy of the operators, which can be derived by using the Schmidt decomposition. Further, we find two kinds of particular spatial configurations of insertion operators in one of which the pseudo-(R\'enyi) entropy remains real throughout the time evolution.

    cond-mat.stat-mech 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    A boundary quench in a (1+1)-d CFT makes one-point functions switch from old to new ground state across a light cone and makes adjacent-region entanglement jump by log(g_b/g_a).

    The calibrated pseudo-Rényi phase and replica visibility exactly equal the Helstrom trace distance between forward and backward ancilla states, giving a bounded operational meaning to imaginary pseudo entropy.

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Thermal pseudo-entropy is the analytic continuation S(β+it) of thermal entropy, equals the pseudo-entropy of a Thermofield Double transition matrix, and its averaged real part tracks the spectral form factor.
