二维拓扑超导体纠缠熵的解析表达式

Analytic Expression for the Entanglement Entropy of a 2D Topological Superconductor

Jan Borchmann, T. Pereg-Barnea

摘要:

本文研究了正方形晶格上的二维拓扑超导模型。该模型包含跳跃、自旋轨道耦合和时间反演对称性破缺塞曼项。这一项与化学势一起作为旋钮,诱导平凡超导性和拓扑超导性之间的转变。正如以前发现的数值,过渡被视为在纠缠熵作为尖点作为模型参数的函数。在这项工作中,我们研究的纠缠熵分析只保留其最重要的组成部分。我们的研究是基于系统中费米面的数量控制拓扑不变量的直觉。我们的近似表达式的纠缠熵,我们能够提取的相变附近的发散纠缠熵的衍生物。

英文摘要:

We study a model of two dimensional, topological superconductivity on a square lattice. The model contains hopping, spin orbit coupling and a time reversal symmetry breaking Zeeman term. This term, together with the chemical potential act as knobs that induce transitions between trivial and topological superconductivity. As previously found numerically, the transitions are seen in the entanglement entropy as cusps as a function of model parameters. In this work we study the entanglement entropy analytically by keeping only its most important components. Our study is based on the intuition that the number of Fermi surfaces in the system controls the topological invariant. With our approximate expression for the entanglement entropy we are able to extract the divergent entanglement entropy derivative close to the phase transition.
