Abstract
Quantum entanglement is fragile to thermal fluctuations, which raises the question whether finite temperature phase transitions support long-range entanglement similar to their zero temperature counterparts. Here we use quantum Monte Carlo simulations to study the third Renyi negativity, a generalization of entanglement negativity, as a proxy of mixed-state entanglement in the 2D transverse field Ising model across its finite temperature phase transition. We find that the area-law coefficient of the Renyi negativity is singular across the transition, while its subleading constant is zero within the statistical error. This indicates that the entanglement is short-ranged at the critical point despite a divergent correlation length. Renyi negativity in several exactly solvable models also shows qualitative similarities to that in the 2D transverse field Ising model.
