Toy model of boundary states with spurious topological entanglement entropy
Topological entanglement entropy has been extensively used as an indicator of topologically ordered phases. We study the conditions needed for two-dimensional topologically trivial states to exhibit spurious contributions that contaminate topological entanglement entropy. We show that, if the state...
