The entanglement entropy for quantum system in one spatial dimension

Ground-state entanglement entropies were investigated for the one-dimension quantum two- and three-spin interaction models, the four-state Potts model, and the XXZ model with uniaxial single-ion-type anisotropy, which were obtained on an infinite-size lattice in one spatial dimension. Thus we show that the entanglement, a key concept of quantum information science, is quantified by the ground-state entanglement entropy. The relationships between ground-state entanglement entropy and quantum phase transition was analyzed. These results were obtained using the infinite matrix product state algorithm which works in the thermodynamical limit.
