According to the single-mode approximation applied to two different mo des, each associated with different uniformly accelerating reference frames, we present analytical expression of the Minkowski states for both the ground and first excited states. Applying such an approximation, we study the entanglement property of Bell and Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states formed by such states. The corresponding entanglement properties are described by studying negativity and von Neumann entropy. The degree of entanglement will be degraded when the acceleration parameters increase. We find that the greater the number of particles in the entangled system, the more stable the system that is studied by the von Neumann entropy. The present results will be reduced to those in the case of the uniformly accelerating reference frame.

Variation of the von Neumann entropy by the Lorentz transformation is discussed. Taking the spin-singlet state in the center-of-mass frame, the von Neumann entropy in the laboratory frame is calculated from the reduced density matrix obtained by taking the trace over 4-momentum after the Lorentz transformation. As the model to discuss the EPR spin correlation, it is supposed that one parent particle splits into a superposition state of various pair states in various directions. Computing the von Neumann entropy and the Shannon entropy, we have shown a global behavior of the entropy to see a relativistic effect. We discuss also the superrelativistic limit, distinguishability between the two particles of the pair and so on.

Recently, quantum states are treated as a resource of the quantum information. 1),2) In the information theory, the Shannon entropy quantifies the amount of information and the von Neumann entropy in quantum mechanics quantifies the
