Holographic study of entanglement and complexity for mixed states
Abstract
In this paper, we holographically quantify the entanglement and complexity for mixed states by following the prescription of purification. The bulk theory we consider in this work is a hyperscaling violating solution, characterized by two parameters, hyperscaling violating exponent θ and dynamical exponent z . This geometry is due to a nonrelativistic strongly coupled theory with hidden Fermi surfaces. We first compute the holographic analogy of entanglement of purification, denoted as the minimal area of the entanglement wedge cross section and observe the effects of z and θ . Then in order to probe the mixed state complexity we compute the mutual complexity for the Banados Teitelboim Zanelli (BTZ) black hole and the hyperscaling violating geometry by incorporating the holographic subregion complexity conjecture. We carry this out for two disjoint subsystems separated by a distance and also when the subsystems are adjacent with subsystems making up the full system. Furthermore, various aspects of holographic entanglement entropy such as the entanglement Smarr relation, the Fisher information metric, and the butterfly velocity have also been discussed.
