Negativity Spectrum in the Random Singlet Phase

Entanglement features of the ground state of disordered quantum matter are often captured by an infinite randomness fixed point that, for a variety of models, is the random singlet phase. Although a copious number of studies covers bipartite entanglement in pure states, at present, less is known for mixed states and tripartite settings. Our goal is to gain insights in this direction by studying the negativity spectrum in the random singlet phase. Through the strong disorder renormalization group technique, we derive analytic formulas for the universal scaling of the disorder averaged moments of the partially transposed reduced density matrix. Our analytic predictions are checked against a numerical implementation of the strong disorder renormalization group and against exact computations for the XX spin chain (a model in which free fermion techniques apply). Importantly, our results show that the negativity and logarithmic negativity are not trivially related after the average over the disorder.
