Abstract

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is a fundamental element in quantum mechanics. It sets a bound on our ability to predict the measurement outcomes of two incompatible observables simultaneously. In quantum information theory, the uncertainty principle can be expressed using entropic measures. The entropic uncertainty relation can be improved by considering an additional particle as a memory particle. The presence of quantum correlation between the memory particle and the measured particle reduces the uncertainty. In a curved space-time, the presence of the Hawking radiation can reduce quantum correlation. Therefore, concerning the relationship between the quantum correlation and entropic uncertainty lower bound, we expect that the Hawking radiation increases the entropic uncertainty lower bound. In this work, we investigate the entropic uncertainty relation in Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GHS) dilation black hole. We consider a model in which the memory particle is located near the event horizon outside the black hole, while the measured particle is free falling. To study the proposed model, we will consider examples with Dirac fields. We also explore the effect of the Hawking radiation on the quantum secret key rate.

The precision of measurements for two incompatible observables is limited due to the uncertainty principle; however, it can be improved with the assistance of quantum memory. In article number 1800208, by considering that a particle is initially entangled with the quantum memory in flat Minkowski space–time, and then the quantum memory freely falls toward a Garfinkle–Horowitz–Strominger (GHS) dilation black hole and locates near the event horizon, Zuo-Yuan Zhang and co-workers investigate the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation for Dirac particles in GHS dilation space–time.

Entropic Uncertainty Relation for Dirac Particles in Garfinkle–Horowitz–Strominger Dilation Space–Time

Zuo-Yuan Zhang, Jin‐Ming Liu, Zhengfeng Hu +1 more

Abstract The quantum‐memory‐assisted entropic uncertainty relation for Dirac particles in the background of a Garfinkle–Horowitz–Strominger (GHS) dilation black hole is investigated, and the relationship between the entropy uncertainty and the quantum entanglement of a hybrid qubit–qutrit state in the GHS space–time analyzed. The results show that the physically accessible uncertainty increases while the inaccessible uncertainty decreases as the dilation parameter of the black hole enhances. Moreover, the evolution behavior of the uncertainty is inversely correlated with that of the entanglement between the quantum memory and the particle to be measured. Meanwhile, a method to steer the entropic uncertainty with the technique of weak measurement reversal is proposed. It is found that the uncertainty can be reduced effectively by adjusting the appropriate measurement strength. These findings may lead to a deeper understanding of entropy uncertainty dynamics, as well as its steering in a curved space–time.

Quantumness and entropic uncertainty in curved space-time

Lijuan Li, Fei Ming, Xue‐Ke Song +2 more

Abstract We explore the tripartite entropic uncertainty and genuine tripartite quantumness of Dirac fields in the background of the Garfinkle–Horowitz–Strominger (GHS) dilation space-time. It is interesting to note that Hawking radiation leads to the decay of quantum nonlocality in the physically accessible region while preserving its total coherence. More importantly, it demonstrates an intrinsic trade-off relationship between the coherences of physically accessible and inaccessible regions. Moreover, we examine the effect of Hawking radiation on entropy-based measured uncertainty and find that stronger Hawking radiation causes the uncertainty in physically accessible regions to increase while decreasing the uncertainty in physically inaccessible regions. Therefore, our investigations may be beneficial to a better understanding of the system’s quantumness in a curved space-time. Combining relativity theory with quantum information science offers new avenues for comprehending the information paradoxes involving black holes.

Holevo bound of entropic uncertainty in Schwarzschild spacetime

Jin-Long Huang, Wen-Cong Gan, Yunlong Xiao +2 more

For a pair of incompatible quantum measurements, the total uncertainty can be bounded by a state-independent constant. However, such a bound can be violated if the quantum system is entangled with another quantum system (called memory); the quantum correlation between the systems can reduce the measurement uncertainty. On the other hand, in a curved spacetime, the presence of the Hawking radiation can reduce quantum correlation. The interplay of quantum correlation in the curved spacetime has become an interesting arena for studying uncertainty relations. Here we demonstrate that the bounds of the entropic uncertainty relations, in the presence of memory, can be formulated in terms of the Holevo quantity, which limits how much information can be encoded in a quantum system. Specifically, we considered examples with Dirac fields with and without spin, near the event horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole, the Holevo bound provides a better bound than the previous bound based on the mutual information. Furthermore, as the memory moves away from the black hole, the difference between the total uncertainty and the new lower bound remains a constant, not depending on any property of the black hole.

Effects of Hawking Radiation on the Entropic Uncertainty in a Schwarzschild Space‐Time

Dong Wang, Wei‐Nan Shi, Ross D. Hoehn +4 more

Abstract The Heisenberg uncertainty principle describes a basic restriction on an observer's ability of precisely predicting the measurement of a pair of noncommuting observables, and virtually is at the core of quantum mechanics. Herein, the aim is to study the entropic uncertainty relation (EUR) under the background of a Schwarzschild black hole and its control. Explicitly, dynamical features of the measuring uncertainty via entropy are developed in a practical model where a stationary particle interacts with its surrounding environment while another particle—serving as a quantum memory reservoir—undergoes free fall in the vicinity of the event horizon of the Schwarzschild space‐time. It shows higher Hawking temperatures would give rise to an inflation of the entropic uncertainty on the measured particle. This is suggestive of the fact the measurement uncertainty is strongly correlated with degree of mixing present in the evolving particles. Additionally, based on information flow theory, a physical interpretation for the observed dynamical behaviors related with the entropic uncertainty in such a genuine scenario is provided. Finally, an efficient strategy is proposed to reduce the uncertainty by non‐tracing‐preserved operations. Therefore, our explorations may improve the understanding of the dynamic entropic uncertainty in a curved space‐time, and illustrate predictions of quantum measurements in relativistic quantum information sciences.

Uncertainty relation in Schwarzschild spacetime

Jun Feng, Yao-Zhong Zhang, M. D. Gould +1 more

We explore the entropic uncertainty relation in the curved background outside a Schwarzschild black hole , and find that Hawking radiation introduces a nontrivial modification on the uncertainty bound for particular observer, therefore it could be witnessed by proper uncertainty game experimentally. We first investigate an uncertainty game between a free falling observer and his static partner holding a quantum memory initially entangled with the quantum system to be measured. Due to the information loss from Hawking decoherence, we find an inevitable increase of the uncertainty on the outcome of measurements in the view of static observer, which is dependent on the mass of the black hole, the distance of observer from event horizon , and the mode frequency of quantum memory. To illustrate the generality of this paradigm, we relate the entropic uncertainty bound with other uncertainty probe, e.g., time–energy uncertainty. In an alternative game between two static players, we show that quantum information of qubit can be transferred to quantum memory through a bath of fluctuating quantum fields outside the black hole. For a particular choice of initial state, we show that the Hawking decoherence cannot counteract entanglement generation after the dynamical evolution of system, which triggers an effectively reduced uncertainty bound that violates the intrinsic limit − log 2 ⁡ c . Numerically estimation for a proper choice of initial state shows that our result is comparable with possible real experiments. Finally, a discussion on the black hole firewall paradox in the context of entropic uncertainty relation is given.
