Quantum entanglement in the multicritical disordered Ising model

Quantum entanglement at critical points is often marked by universal characteristics. Here, the entanglement entropy is calculated at the quantum multicritical point of the random transverse-field Ising model (RTIM). We use an efficient implementation of the strong disorder renormalization group method in two and three dimensions for two types of disorder. For cubic subsystems we find a universal logarithmic corner contribution to the area law bln () that is independent of the form of disorder. Our results agree qualitatively with those at the quantum critical points of the RTIM, but with new b prefactors due to having both geometric and quantum fluctuations at play. By studying the vicinity of the multicritical point, we demonstrate that the corner contribution serves as an ``entanglement susceptibility, '' a useful tool to locate the phase transition and to measure the correlation length critical exponents.
