Entanglement spectrum of a random partition: Connection with the localization transition

We study the entanglement spectrum of a translationally invariant lattice system under a random partition, implemented by choosing each site to be in one subsystem with probability p ∈ [0,1]. We apply this random partitioning to a translationally invariant (i.e., clean) topological state, and argue...
