We construct a new class of entanglement measures by extending the usual definition of Renyi entropy to include a chemical potential. These charged Renyi entropies measure the degree of entanglement in different charge sectors of the theory and are given by Euclidean path integrals with the insertion of a Wilson line encircling the entangling surface. We compute these entropies for a spherical entangling surface in CFTs with holographic duals, where they are related to entropies of charged black holes with hyperbolic horizons. We also compute charged Renyi entropies in free field theories.

Quantum Renyi relative entropies provide a one-parameter family of distances between density matrices, which generalizes the relative entropy and the fidelity. We study these measures for renormalization group flows in quantum field theory. We derive explicit expressions in free field theory based on the real time approach. Using monotonicity properties, we obtain new inequalities that need to be satisfied by consistent renormalization group trajectories in field theory. These inequalities play the role of a second law of thermodynamics, in the context of renormalization group flows. Finally, we apply these results to a tractable Kondo model, where we evaluate the Renyi relative entropies explicitly. An outcome of this is that Andersons orthogonality catastrophe can be avoided by working on a Cauchy surface that approaches the light-cone.

We holographically compute the Renyi relative divergence $D_{alpha} (rho_{+} || rho_{-})$ between two density matrices $rho_{+}, ; rho_{-}$ prepared by path integrals with constant background fields $lambda_{pm}$ coupled to a marginal operator in JT gravity. Our calculation is non perturbative in the difference between two sources $ lambda_{+} -lambda_{-}$. When this difference is large, the bulk geometry becomes a black hole with the maximal temperature allowed by the Renyi index $alpha$. In this limit, we find an analytic expression of the Renyi relative divergence, which is given by the on shell action of the back reacted black hole plus the contribution coming from the discontinuous change of the background field.
We compute genus two partition functions in two dimensional conformal field theories at large central charge, focusing on surfaces that give the third Renyi entropy of two intervals. We compute this for generalized free theories and for symmetric orb ifolds, and compare it to the result in pure gravity. We find a new phase transition if the theory contains a light operator of dimension $Deltaleq0.19$. This means in particular that unlike the second Renyi entropy, the third one is no longer universal.
An alternative method is presented for extracting the von Neumann entropy $-operatorname{Tr} (rho ln rho)$ from $operatorname{Tr} (rho^n)$ for integer $n$ in a quantum system with density matrix $rho$. Instead of relying on direct analytic continuati on in $n$, the method uses a generating function $-operatorname{Tr} { rho ln [(1-z rho) / (1-z)] }$ of an auxiliary complex variable $z$. The generating function has a Taylor series that is absolutely convergent within $|z|<1$, and may be analytically continued in $z$ to $z = -infty$ where it gives the von Neumann entropy. As an example, we use the method to calculate analytically the CFT entanglement entropy of two intervals in the small cross ratio limit, reproducing a result that Calabrese et al. obtained by direct analytic continuation in $n$. Further examples are provided by numerical calculations of the entanglement entropy of two intervals for general cross ratios, and of one interval at finite temperature and finite interval length.
We perform a detailed analysis of holographic entanglement Renyi entropy in some modified theories of gravity with four dimensional conformal field theory duals. First, we construct perturbative black hole solutions in a recently proposed model of Ei nsteinian cubic gravity in five dimensions, and compute the Renyi entropy as well as the scaling dimension of the twist operators in the dual field theory. Consistency of these results are verified from the AdS/CFT correspondence, via a corresponding computation of the Weyl anomaly on the gravity side. Similar analyses are then carried out for three other examples of modified gravity in five dimensions that include a chemical potential, namely Born-Infeld gravity, charged quasi-topological gravity and a class of Weyl corrected gravity theories with a gauge field, with the last example being treated perturbatively. Some interesting bounds in the dual conformal field theory parameters in quasi-topological gravity are pointed out. We also provide arguments on the validity of our perturbative analysis, whenever applicable.
