Entanglement topological invariants for one-dimensional topological superconductors

Abstract: Entanglement is known to serve as an order parameter for true topological order in two-dimensional systems. We show how entanglement of disconnected partitions defines topological invariants for one-dimensional topological superconductors. These order parameters quantitatively capture the entanglement that is possible to distill from the ground state manifold, and are thus quantized to 0 or log 2. Their quantization property is inferred from the underlying lattice gauge theory description of topological superc… Show more

“…In other words, the spectrum preserves topological information. Moreover, for any system with a quadratic Hamiltonian, the whole situation can be simplified to compute the eigenvalues of the correlation function matrix, also known as the one-particle entanglement spectrum [17][18][19]. Majorana zero modes are then shown in terms of doubly degenerate eigenvalues, 1/2, in the spectrum [18].…”
