52. See Supplemental Material at http://link.aps.org/supplemental/10.1103/ PhysRevB.87.184302 for data on bath correlations and von Neumann information entropy which is not essential to understand the paper. It also includes a description of how reduced density matrices are obtained in the lattice case. This document also contains some more detailed calculations supporting claims made in the main manuscript.
