Entanglement entropy from SU(2) Chern-Simons theory and symmetric webs

Published 12 Jul 2017 in hep-th, cond-mat.str-el, math.GT, and quant-ph | (1707.03525v1)

Abstract: A path integral on a link complement of a three-sphere fixes a vector (the "link state") in Chern-Simons theory. The link state can be written in a certain basis with the colored link invariants as its coefficients. We use symmetric webs to systematically compute the colored link invariants, by which we can write down the multi-partite entangled state of any given link. It is still unknown if a product state necessarily implies that the corresponding components are unlinked, and we leave it as a conjecture.
