Spatial Entanglement Sudden Death in Spin Chains at All Temperatures

Abstract

We prove a finite entanglement length for the Gibbs state of any local Hamiltonian on a spin chain at any finite temperature: After removing an interval of size at least equal to the entanglement length, the remaining left and right half-chains are in a separable state.
