Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlation in Kerr-Newman spacetime

Abstract

The EPR correlation has become an integral part of quantum communications as has general relativity in classical communication theory, however when combined an apparent deterioration is observed for spin states. We consider appropriate changes in directions of measurement to exploit full EPR entanglement for a pair of particles and show that it can be deduced only up to the outer event horizon of a Kerr-Newman black hole, even in the case of a freely falling observer.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlation in a gravitational field

Hiroaki Terashima, Masahito Ueda

For quantum communication in a gravitational field, the properties of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlation are studied within the framework of general relativity. Acceleration and gravity are shown to deteriorate the perfect anticorrelation of an EPR pair of spins in the same direction, and apparently decrease the degree of the violation of Bell's inequality. To maintain the perfect EPR correlation and the maximal violation of Bell's inequality, observers must measure the spins in appropriately chosen different directions which depend on the velocity of the particles, the curvature of the space-time, and the positions of the observers. Near the event horizon of a black hole, the appropriate directions depend so sensitively on the positions of the observers that even a very small uncertainty in the identification of the observers' positions leads to a fatal error in quantum communication, unless the observers fall into the black hole together with the particles.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlation seen from moving observers

Hiroaki Terashima, Masahito Ueda

Within the framework of relativistic quantum theory, we consider the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) gedanken-experiment in which measurements of the spin are performed by moving observers. We find that the perfect anti-correlation in the same direction between the EPR pair no longer holds in the observers' frame. This does not imply a breakdown of the non-local correlation. We explicitly show that the observers must measure the spin in appropriately chosen different directions in order to observe the perfect anti-correlation. This fact should be taken into account in utilizing the entangled state in quantum communication by moving observers.

RELATIVISTIC EINSTEIN-PODOLSKY-ROSEN CORRELATION AND BELL'S INEQUALITY

Hiroaki Terashima, Masahito Ueda

We formulate the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) gedankenexperiment within the framework of relativistic quantum theory to analyze a situation in which measurements are performed by moving observers. We point out that under certain conditions the perfect anti-correlation of an EPR pair of spins in the same direction deteriorates in the moving observers' frame due to the Wigner rotation, and show that the degree of the violation of Bell's inequality prima facie decreases with increasing velocity of the observers if the directions of the measurement are fixed. However, this does not imply a breakdown of non-local correlation since the perfect anti-correlation is maintained in appropriately chosen different directions. When considering moving frames we must take account of this relativistic effect on the EPR correlation and on the violation of Bell's inequality for quantum communication.

Entangled spinning particles in charged and rotating black holes.

Felipe Robledo‐Padilla, Hugo García‐Compeán

Spin precession for an EPR pair of spin-1/2 particles in equatorial orbits around a Kerr-Newman black hole is studied. Hovering observers are introduced to ensure fixed reference frames in order to perform the Wigner rotation. These observers also guarantee a reliable direction to compare spin states in rotating black holes. The velocity of the particle due frame-dragging is explicitly incorporated by addition of velocities with respect the hovering observers and the corresponding spin precession angle is computed. The spin-singlet state is observed to be mixed with the spin-triplet by dynamical and gravity effects, thus it is found that a perfect anti-correlation of entangled states for these observers is deteriorated. Finally, an analysis concerning the different limit cases of parameters of spin precession including the frame-dragging effects is carried out.

The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox and Entanglement 1: Signatures of EPR correlations for continuous variables

M. D. Reid

A generalization of the 1935 Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) argument for measurements with continuous variable outcomes is presented to establish criteria for the demonstration of the EPR paradox, for situations where the correlation between spatially separated subsystems is not perfect. Two types of criteria for EPR correlations are determined. The first type are based on measurements of the variances of conditional probability distributions and are necessary to reflect directly the situation of the original EPR paradox. The second weaker set of EPR criteria are based on the proven failure of (Bell-type) local realistic theories which could be consistent with a local quantum description for each subsystem. The relationship with criteria sufficient to prove entanglement is established, to show that any demonstration of EPR correlations will also signify entanglement. It is also shown how a demonstration of entanglement between two spatially separated subsystems, if not able to interpreted as a violation of a Bell-type inequality, may be interpreted as a demonstration of the EPR correlations. In particular it is explained how the experimental observation of two-mode squeezing using spatially separated detectors will signify not only entanglement but EPR correlations defined in a general sense.

Quantum entanglement in Plebański–Demiański spacetimes

Hugo García‐Compeán, Felipe Robledo‐Padilla

For an Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen pair of spin-1/2 particles in circular orbits in a general axially symmetric spacetime, the spin precession angle is obtained. Hovering observers are introduced for ensuring fixed reference frames to perform suitable reliable measurements. Frame-dragging of spinning holes is explicitly incorporated relative to hovering observers. The spin-singlet state is found to be mixed with the spin-triplet by acceleration and gravity effects, which deteriorate the perfect anti-correlation of an entangled pair of spins measured by hovering observers. Finally, an algorithm to calculate spin precession for a general axially symmetric spacetime is proposed. This algorithm is applied to study the complete list of expanding and twisting Type-D Plebański–Demiański black holes and their descendent limiting solutions with lower parameters.
