Abstract

In this article, we investigate the geometric discord of quantum states of fermionic system in accelerated frame. It is shown by the method beyond the single-mode approximation, depending on the region considered, that the geometric discord for the entangled quantum states of fermionic system in accelerated frame can vanish or be retained at the infinite acceleration limit: it does not disappear when the quantum state of the particle(Alice)-particle(Bob in region I) case or the particle(Alice)-antiparticle(Bob in region II) is considered and it disappears when the particle(Alice)-antiparticle(Bob in region I) case or the particle(Alice)-particle(Bob in region II) one is considered.

Dynamics of Fermionic Geometric Discord beyond Single-Mode Approximations

Muhammad Asif Ramzan

Geometric quantum discord of fermionic systems in the relativistic regime, that is, beyond the single-mode approximation, is investigated. It is shown that geometric quantum discord for the fermionic systems in non-inertial frames converges at an infinite acceleration limit, which means that the fermionic systems become independent of the choice of Unruh modes (q R ) beyond single-mode approximation. The discord may vanish or be retained depending upon the level of mixedness of the fermionic system. The dynamics of geometric discord are investigated under amplitude damping, depolarizing, phase damping and flipping channels. The vanishing behavior of discord is seen for a higher level of decoherence in the infinite acceleration limit. The depolarizing channel dominantly affects the fermionic geometric discord as compared to the amplitude and phase damping channels. This implies that the depolarizing channel has most destructive influence on the discord of the fermionic systems. However, the flipping channels have a symmetrical effect on the discord. Moreover, the discord heavily depends on the mixedness parameter of the quantum state of the fermionic systems in accelerated frames beyond single-mode approximation.

Vanishing geometric discord in noninertial frames

Eric G. Brown, K. J. R. Cormier, Eduardo Martín-Martínez +1 more

We revisit the ``field entanglement in noninertial frames'' scenario extensively studied in previous literature and demonstrate that the geometric discord, a proposed measure of generalized quantum correlations, decays to zero in the infinite acceleration limit. This is in contrast with previous research showing that the acceleration-induced degradation of quantum discord was not strong enough to extinguish discord in this limit. We argue that our finding has two opposing but noncontradicting implications. On the one hand, the usable quantum correlations in the large acceleration regime appear severely limited for any protocols making use of geometric discord as a figure of merit. On the other hand, our result indicates, in corroboration with other recent work, that the geometric discord is not a faithful measure of quantum correlations, especially in the case of continuous-variable systems, due to the existence of states which have finite quantum discord but are nevertheless infinitesimally close (in the Hilbert-Schmidt norm) to a zero-discord state.

Communication channel of fermionic system in accelerated frame

Jinho Chang, Younghun Kwon

In this article, we investigate the communication channel of fermionic system in an accelerated frame. We observe that at the infinite acceleration, the mutual information of single rail quantum channel coincides with that of double rail quantum channel, but those of classical ones reach different values. Furthermore, we find that at the infinite acceleration, the conditional entropy of single(or double) rail quantum channel vanishes, but those of classical ones may have finite values. In addition, we see that even when considering a method beyond the single mode approximation, the dual rail entangled state seems to provide better channel capacity than the single rail entangled state, unlike the bosonic case. Moreover, we find that the single-mode approximation is not sufficient to analyze the communication channel of fermionic system in an accelerated frame.

Pseudo-Entanglement Evaluated in Noninertial Frames

Hossein Mehri‐Dehnavi, Behrouz Mirza, Hosein Mohammadzadeh

We study quantum discord, in addition to entanglement, of bipartite pseudo-entanglement in noninertial frames. It is shown that the entanglement degrades from its maximum value in a stationary frame to a minimum value in an infinite accelerating frame. There is a critical region found in which, for particular cases, entanglement of states vanishes for certain accelerations. The quantum discord of pseudo-entanglement decreases by increasing the acceleration. Also, for a physically inaccessible region, entanglement and nonclassical correlation are evaluated and shown to match the corresponding values of the physically accessible region for an infinite acceleration.

Fermionic Unruh effect revisited: Entanglement and correlation dynamics under symmetric transformations

Omid Yahyayi Monem, Hosein Mohammadzadeh

A uniformly accelerated observer perceives the Minkowski vacuum as a thermal bath, so acceleration acts as a noise channel on correlations shared with an inertial partner. For a Dirac field in the standard treatment, the resulting map is a one-sided amplitude-damping channel, and entanglement and quantum discord survive at infinite acceleration. We introduce a symmetric Unruh-like map in which the vacuum and the one-particle state both exchange amplitude with the inaccessible Rindler region; for a Bell state it yields a bit-flip channel whose flip probability is the Fermi-Dirac occupation at the Unruh temperature. Using negativity, mutual information, and all six pairwise quantum discords, we find that the entanglement and discord between the inertial observer and the accessible mode vanish together at infinite acceleration, leaving only one bit of classical correlation. These results show that the fate of quantum correlations in noninertial frames depends on the structure of the Minkowski-Rindler map.

Quantum discord of the Werner state in noninertial frames

M. A. Mercado Sanchez, Guo-Hua Sun, Shi‐Hai Dong

Abstract Using the single-mode approximation we study the quantum correlations of a free Dirac field on the Werner state in the noninertial frame. We present analytical quantum discord D and its geometric measurement D G . We notice that the quantum discord still exists for the system ρ ARI even in the acceleration limit. We also calculate the entanglement of formation (EOF) and the geometric measure of entanglement ( E G ) to compare the behaviors of the entanglement with the quantum discord. The entanglement is nonzero for the fidelity of the Werner state with a Bell state F > 0.5, while the quantum discord is equal to zero only for F = 0.25. We also observe that the quantum discord is more robust to the change of acceleration than the entanglement, which is more sensitive to the acceleration.
