Abstract

We investigate the Bell–Mermin–Klyshko inequalities and the one-way information deficit of Dirac fields in noninertial frames, where the quantum correlations are shared between inertial and accelerated observers due to the Unruh effect. We derive partial analytical results for specific quantum states using the one-way information deficit. Additionally, we present numerical results for the Bell–Mermin–Klyshko inequalities. The study reveals the presence of Bell nonlocality and the significance of the one-way information deficit in relativistic quantum information .

Quantum Fisher information in noninertial frames

Yao Yao, Xing Mao Xiao, Li Ge +2 more

We investigate the performance of quantum Fisher information (QFI) under the Unruh-Hawking effect, where one of the observers (e.g., Rob) is uniformly accelerated with respect to other partners. In the context of relativistic quantum information theory, we demonstrate that quantum Fisher information, as an important measure of the information content of quantum states, has a rich and subtle physical structure compared with entanglement or Bell nonlocality. In this work, we mainly focus on the parametrized (and arbitrary) pure two-qubit states, where the weight parameter $\ensuremath{\theta}$ and phase parameter $\ensuremath{\phi}$ are naturally introduced. Intriguingly, we prove that QFI with respect to $\ensuremath{\theta}$ (${\mathcal{F}}_{\ensuremath{\theta}}$) remains unchanged for both scalar and Dirac fields. Meanwhile, we observe that QFI with respect to $\ensuremath{\phi}$ (${\mathcal{F}}_{\ensuremath{\phi}}$) decreases with the increase of acceleration $r$ but remains finite in the limit of infinite acceleration. More importantly, our results show that the symmetry of ${\mathcal{F}}_{\ensuremath{\phi}}$ (with respect to $\ensuremath{\theta}=\ensuremath{\pi}/4$) has been broken by the influence of the Unruh effect for both cases.

An investigation of some quantum correlations of Dirac fields in noninertial frames

Mohammad B. Arjmandi

In this paper, some concepts of quantum correlations, such as one-way quantum deficit, purity, and entanglement of formation are investigated between the modes of Dirac fields in noninertial frames. We consider two bipartite divisions of a tripartite system constructed by initial Werner states, which is shared between two relatively accelerated observers. The degradation of these quantum correlations is shown when the acceleration parameter increases. However, a nonzero amount of correlations survives even at infinite acceleration limit. Furthermore, we study the inevitable influence of mixedness factor of initial state on the quantum correlations behaviour. Finally, we review our calculation beyond single-mode approximation and point out some differences and similarities between the two regimes.

Entanglement of Dirac fields in noninertial frames

Paul M. Alsing, Ivette Fuentes, Robert B. Mann +1 more

We analyze the entanglement between two modes of a free Dirac field as seen by two relatively accelerated parties. The entanglement is degraded by the Unruh effect and asymptotically reaches a nonvanishing minimum value in the infinite acceleration limit. This means that the state always remains entangled to a degree and can be used in quantum information tasks, such as teleportation, between parties in relative uniform acceleration. We analyze our results from the point of view afforded by the phenomenon of entanglement sharing and in terms of recent results in the area of multiqubit complementarity.

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.

Continuous-variable entanglement sharing in noninertial frames

Gerardo Adesso, Ivette Fuentes, Marie Ericsson

We study the distribution of entanglement between modes of a free scalar field from the perspective of observers in uniform acceleration. We consider a two-mode squeezed state of the field from an inertial perspective, and analytically study the degradation of entanglement due to the Unruh effect, in the cases of either one or both observers undergoing uniform acceleration. We find that, for two observers undergoing finite acceleration, the entanglement vanishes between the lowest-frequency modes. The loss of entanglement is precisely explained as a redistribution of the inertial entanglement into multipartite quantum correlations among accessible and inaccessible modes from a noninertial perspective. We show that classical correlations are also lost from the perspective of two accelerated observers but conserved if one of the observers remains inertial.

Bipartite quantum coherence in noninertial frames

Chen Xu, Chunfeng Wu, Hong-Yi Su +2 more

Quantum coherence as the fundamental characteristic of quantum physics, provides the valuable resource for quantum computation in exceeding the power of classical algorithms. The exploration of quantum coherence in relativistic systems is of significance from both the fundamental points of view and practical applications. We investigate the quantum coherence of two free modes of scalar and Dirac fields as detected by two relatively accelerated observers by resorting to the relative entropy of coherence. We show that the relative entropy of coherence monotonically decreases when acceleration goes up, as a consequence of the Unruh effect. Specifically, the initial states with parameters $α=b$ and $α=\sqrt{1-b^2}$ have the same initial relative entropy coherence at $a=0$ (with $a$ the acceleration), but degrade along two different trajectories. The relative entropy of coherence reaches vanishing value in the scalar field in the infinite acceleration limit, but non-vanishing value in the Dirac field. This suggests that in the Dirac field, the bipartite state possesses quantum coherence to some extent with the variation of the relative acceleration, and may lead to potential applications in quantum computation performed by observers in motion relatively.
