Abstract:
Using the algebraic approach to
entanglement entropy, we study several
dual pairs of lattice theories and show
how the entropy is completely preserved
across each duality. The main result is
that a maximal algebra of observables in a
region always dualizes to a non-maximal
algebra in a dual region. In particular, the
usual notion of tracing out external
degrees of freedom dualizes to a tracing
out coupled to an additional summation
over configurations at the entangling
edge.
