Holographic entanglement negativity for disjoint intervals in $$AdS_3/CFT_2$$ AdS3/CFT2

Abstract We advance a holographic construction for the entanglement negativity of bipartite mixed state configurations of two disjoint intervals in $$(1+1)$$ (1+1) dimensional conformal field theories ($$CFT_{1+1}$$ CFT1+1 ) through the $$AdS_3/CFT_2$$ AdS3/CFT2 correspondence. Our construction cons...

Description
Summary:Abstract We advance a holographic construction for the entanglement negativity of bipartite mixed state configurations of two disjoint intervals in $$(1+1)$$ (1+1) dimensional conformal field theories ($$CFT_{1+1}$$ CFT1+1 ) through the $$AdS_3/CFT_2$$ AdS3/CFT2 correspondence. Our construction constitutes the large central charge analysis of the entanglement negativity for mixed states under consideration and involves a specific algebraic sum of bulk space like geodesics anchored on appropriate intervals in the dual $$CFT_{1+1}$$ CFT1+1 . The construction is utilized to compute the holographic entanglement negativity for such mixed states in $$CFT_{1+1}$$ CFT1+1 s dual to bulk pure $$AdS_3$$ AdS3 geometries and BTZ black holes respectively. Our analysis exactly reproduces the universal features of corresponding replica technique results in the large central charge limit which serves as a consistency check.
