Rényi divergences from Euclidean quenches

Abstract We study the generalisation of relative entropy, the Rényi divergence D α (ρ∥ρ β ) in 2d CFTs between an excited state density matrix ρ, created by deforming the Hamiltonian, and the thermal density matrix ρ β . Using the path integral representation of this quantity as a Euclidean quench,...
