| contents | We present entanglement measures between spatially separated regions and between two distinguishable or indistinguishable particles in one-dimensional two-particle continuous-time quantum walks governed by the Hubbard Hamiltonian. The left-right entanglement checks the entropy of coarse-grained states counting the numbers of particles on the left and right halves of the lattice while the particle-particle entanglement is based on the entropy of the singular values of the time-evolved Fock state. With separable, entangled, and doubly occupied initial states, we examine initial entanglement and the following growth in different entanglement measures. While the entanglement measures of the indistinguishable cases resemble those of the distinguishable cases when the initial states are comparable, the long-time limits of the entanglement measures are typically non-monotonic as the onsite repulsion increases. We also discuss possible implications for future research of entanglement in multi-particle quantum dynamics. |
