Topological Rényi and Entanglement Entropy for a 2d q-deformed U(N)U(N) Yang-Mills theory and its Chern-Simons dual

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Rényi and entanglement entropies are constructed for 2d q-deformed topological Yang-Mills theories with gauge group U(N)U(N), as well as the dual 3d Chern-Simons (CS) theory on Seifert manifolds. When q=exp⁡[2πi/(N+K)]q=\exp[2πi/(N+K)], and KK is odd, the topological Rényi entropy and Wilson line observables of the CS theory can be expressed in terms of the modular transformation matrices of the WZW theory, U^(N)K,N(K+N)\rm{\hat{U}(N)}_{K,N(K+N)}. If both KK and NN are odd, there is a level-rank duality of the 2d qYM theory and of the associated CS theory, as well as that of the Rényi and entanglement entropies, and Wilson line observables.
