Abstract

We establish a relation between the geometric time-energy uncertainty and multipartite entanglement. In particular, we show that the time-energy uncertainty relation is bounded below by the geometric measure of multipartite entanglement for an arbitrary quantum evolution of any multipartite system. The product of the time-averaged speed of the quantum evolution and the time interval of the evolution is bounded below by the multipartite entanglement of the target state. This relation holds for pure as well as for mixed states. We provide examples of physical systems for which the bound reaches close to saturation.

Energy–time uncertainty relation for driven quantum systems

Sebastian Deffner, Eric Lutz

We derive generalizations of the energy-time uncertainty relation for driven quantum systems. Using a geometric approach based on the Bures length between mixed quantum states, we obtain explicit expressions for the quantum speed limit time, valid for arbitrary initial and final quantum states and arbitrary driving protocols. Our results establish the fundamental limit on the rate of evolution of generic quantum systems.

Connections between relative entropy of entanglement and geometric measure of entanglement

Tzu-Chieh Wei, Marie Ericsson, Paul M. Goldbart +1 more

As two of the most important entanglement measures--the entanglement of formation and the entanglement of distillation--have so for been limited to bipartite settings, the study of other entanglement measures for multipartite systems appears necessary. Here, connections between two other entanglement measures--the relative entropy of entanglement and the geometric measure of entanglement--are investigated. It is found that for arbitrary pure states the latter gives rise to a lower bound on the former. For certain pure states, some bipartite and some multipartite, this lower bound is saturated, and thus their relative entropy of entanglement can be found analytically in terms ot their known geometric measure of entanglement. For certain mixed states, upper bounds on the relative entropy of entanglement are also established. Numerical evidence strongly suggests that these upper bounds are tight, i.e., they are actually the relative entropy of entanglement.

Multipartite entanglement and entropic tightening of uncertainty bounds

S. Hamid Mehdipour

Abstract We derive a generalized uncertainty relation (GUR) in the entropic framework for multipartite identical pure entangled systems. Starting from the variance-based GUR, we reformulate it in terms of differential Shannon entropy, obtaining a tighter entropic bound that explicitly accounts for quantum correlations. Our analysis reveals that the conditional entropy , which quantifies the entanglement between a measured subsystem k and the remaining particles acting as a composite quantum memory, decreases with particle number N and asymptotically approaches zero. This behavior highlights the entanglement-induced suppression of uncertainty, leading to an emergent classicality in the large- N limit. In particular, we demonstrate that multipartite entanglement with quantum memory reduces both the state-independent and state-dependent bounds, yielding more precise measurements. These results not only provide a deeper understanding of the interplay between entanglement and uncertainty but also suggest potential applications in quantum cryptography, precision metrology, condensed-matter many-body physics, quantum thermodynamics, and foundational studies of the quantum-to-classical transition.

Kind of entanglement that speeds up quantum evolution

Florian Fröwis

The ``speed'' of unitary quantum evolution was recently shown to be connected to entanglement in multipartite quantum systems. Here, we discuss a tighter version of the Mandelstam-Tamm uncertainty relation that depends on the Fisher information. The passage time is estimated by a lower bound that depends inversely proportional to the square root of the Fisher information. This leads to a better understanding of the origin of a fast quantum time-evolution of entangled states.
