Abstract

We propose a class of geometric measures of entanglement for pure states by exploiting the matrix product state formalism. These measures are completely divested from the notion of separability and can be freely tuned as a function of the bond dimension to target states which vary in entanglement complexity. We first demonstrate its value in a toy spin-1 model where, unlike the conventional geometric entanglement, it successfully identifies the AKLT ground state. We then investigate the phase diagram of a Haldane chain with uniaxial and rhombic anisotropies, revealing that our measure can successfully detect all its phases; all of which are invisible to the conventional geometric entanglement. Finally we investigate the disordered spin-1/2 Heisenberg model, where we find that differences in our measure can be used as lucrative signatures of the ergodic-localized entanglement transition.
