  "abstract": "The roughening transition in Z2 lattice gauge theory remains a complex phenomenon, particularly in understanding the behavior of electric flux strings. Here, the authors use numerical simulations with matrix product states to reveal the universal Lüscher correction and distinct entanglement entropy growth, offering insights into string dynamics and symmetry restoration near deconfinement.",
