contents In this paper, we carry out the entanglement calculations on the coherent intertwiners. We first consider the entanglement introduced by the group-averaging of the tensor-product type intertwiner on a four-valents vertex. The result shows that the entanglement is determined by the probability distribution of recoupling spin, and this probability distribution is a well-behaved peak for the highest (and lowest) weight states. Further, we calculated explicitly the entanglement on gauge-invariant coherent intertwiner with four legs. Our numerical results show that the shape of the semiclassical polyhedron described by the coherent intertwiner can be related to the entanglement; In other words, the entanglement is controlled by the face-angle of the semiclassical polyhedron. Finally, we extend our analytical calculation to the coherent intertwiners with arbitrary number of legs.
