Abstract: Quantum systems exist at finite temperatures and are likely to be disordered to some level. Since applications of quantum information often rely on entanglement, we require methods which allow entanglement measures to be calculated in the presence of disorder at non-zero temperatures. We demonstrate how the disorder averaged concurrence can be calculated using thermal many-body perturbation theory. Our technique can also be applied to other entanglement measures. To illustrate, we find the disorder averaged concurrence of an XX spin chain. We find that concurrence can be increased by disorder in some parameter regimes.
