Supersymmetric Rényi entropy and defect operators

Abstract We describe the defect operator interpretation of the supersymmetric Rényi entropies of superconformal field theories in three, four and five dimensions. The operators involved are supersymmetric codimension-two defects in an auxiliary ℤn $$ {\mathbb{Z}}_n $$ gauge theory coupled to n copie...
