Entanglement and spontaneous symmetry breaking in quantum spin models
Olav F. Syljuåsen · Physical Review A · 2003
It is shown that spontaneous symmetry breaking does not modify the ground-state entanglement of two spins, as defined by the concurrence, in the XXZ chain and the transverse field Ising chain. Correlation function inequalities, valid in any dimensions for these models, are presented outlining the regimes where entanglement is unaffected by spontaneous symmetry breaking.
