Odd entanglement entropy in Galilean conformal field theories and flat holography

Abstract

Abstract The odd entanglement entropy (OEE) for bipartite states in a class of $$(1+1)$$ ( 1 + 1 ) -dimensional Galilean conformal field theories ( $$GCFT_{1+1}$$ G C F T 1 + 1 ) is obtained through an appropriate replica technique. In this context our results are compared with the entanglement wedge cross section (EWCS) for $$(2+1)$$ ( 2 + 1 ) -dimensional asymptotically flat geometries dual to the $$GCFT_{1+1}$$ G C F T 1 + 1 in the framework of flat holography. We find that our results are consistent with the duality of the difference between the odd entanglement entropy and the entanglement entropy of bipartite states, with the bulk EWCS for flat holographic scenarios.
