In the cases where the representation is exact, the elements of that matrix coincide with the mutual information between pairs of sites. In others, it provides a very good approximation, and in all the cases it yields a natural entanglement contour which is similar to previous proposals. Moreover, for one-dimensional conformal invariant systems, the generalized adjacency matrix is given by the two-point correlator of an entanglement current operator. We conjecture how this entanglement current may give rise to a metric entirely built from entanglement.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEntanglement as geometry and flowjournal article
