Renyi entropy for monodromy defects of higher derivative free fields on even-dimensional spheres (2201.03404v2)

Published 10 Jan 2022 in hep-th

Abstract: Explicit polynomial forms for R\'enyi and entanglement entropies are given on even --dimensional spheres which possess a codimension--2 U(1) monodromy defect. Free scalar and Dirac fields are treated and higher-derivative propagation operators employed. The central charge, $C_T$, is also calculated. Comparison with existing results is made and it is shown how these can be obtained from the values here.
