Bases of orthonormal localized states are constructed in Rindler coordinates and applied to an Unruh detector with good time resolution and an accelerated rod-like array detector.
Any Quantum State Can be Cloned in the Presence of a Closed Timelike Curve

June 28, 2012

PIRSA:12060075

Using the Deutsch approach, we show that the no-cloning theorem can be circumvented in the presence of closed timelike curves, allowing the perfect cloning of a quantum state chosen randomly from a finite alphabet of states. Further, we show that a universal cloner can be constructed that when acting on a completely arbitrary qubit state, exceeds the no-cloning bound on fidelity. Since the “no cloning theorem” has played a central role in the development of quantum information science, it is clear that the existence of closed timelike curves would radically change the rules for quantum information technology.
Quantum Communication Between Localized, Non-Inertial Observers

Tim Ralph University of Queensland

June 28, 2012

PIRSA:12060065

An unsolved problem in relativistic quantum information research is how to model efficient, directional quantum communication between localised parties in a fully quantum field theoretical framework. We propose a tractable approach to this problem based on calculating expectation values of localized field observables in the Heisenberg Picture. We illustrate our approach by analysing, and obtaining approximate analytical solutions to, the problem of communicating quantum states between an inertial sender, Alice and an accelerated homodyne receiver, Rob. We discuss the effect on quantum protocols carried out over such a communication channel.
Future-past Correlations in Relativistic Quantum Information

Jorma Louko University of Nottingham

June 28, 2012

PIRSA:12060064

In the Unruh effect, long-distance correlations in a pure quantum state cause accelerated observers to experience the state as a thermal bath. We discuss a similar phenomenon for quantum states that contain correlations between the distant future and the distant past. Examples include Minkowski half-space with a static mirror and an eternal black hole with an unusual global structure behind the horizon. The question of utilising the future-past correlations in quantum information tasks is raised.
Uncertainty Relations on a Planck Lattice and Black Hole Temperature

PIRSA:12060063

After an introduction to generalized uncertainty principle(s), we study uncertainty relations as formulated in a crystal-like universe, whose lattice spacing is of order of Planck length. For Planckian energies, the uncertainty relation for position and momenta has a lower bound equal to zero. Connections of this result with 't Hooft's deterministic quantization proposal, and with double special relativity are briefly presented. We then apply our formulae to (micro) black holes, we derive a new mass-temperature relation for Schwarzschild black holes, and we discuss the new thermodynamic entropy and heat capacity. In contrast to standard results based on Heisenberg and stringy uncertainty relations, we obtain both a finite Hawking's temperature and a zero rest-mass remnant at the end of the (micro) black hole evaporation.

Quantum Limits to the Measurement of Spacetime Geometry

PIRSA:12060061

This talk analyzes the limits that quantum mechanics imposes on the accuracy to which spacetime geometry can be measured. By applying the fundamental physical bounds to measurement accuracy ensembles of clocks and signals, as in the global positioning system, I present a covariant version of the quantum geometric limit, which states that the total number of ticks of clocks and clicks of detectors that can be contained in a four volume of spacetime of radius R and temporal extent is less than or equal to RT divided by the Planck length times the Planck time. The quantum geometric bound limits the number of events or `ops' that can take place in a four-volume of spacetime and is consistent with and complementary to the holographic bound which limits the number of bits that can exist within a three-volume of spacetime.
A Fully-Relativistic Bandlimit on Quantum Fields' Two-Point Correlation Functions

Aidan Chatwin-Davies University of British Columbia

PIRSA:12060041

The bridge between continuous information and discrete information is provided by sampling theory. In this talk, I will discuss an application of covariant sampling theory to cosmology (see the previous talk by Dr. R. Martin). In cosmology, the two-point correlation function of a quantum field is of central importance because it is a measure of the size of the fluctuations of the quantum field and of the entanglement of the vacuum in a given spacetime. Furthermore, the two-point function is experimentally accessible through the cosmic microwave background. Using covariant sampling theory, I will show how an information-theoretic bandlimit imposed at the Planck scale manifests itself in the two-point function. We will examine this bandlimit in Minkowski space and in de Sitter space.
A Fully Covariant Information Theoretic Ultraviolet Cutoff for Fields on Expanding FRW Spacetimes

June 27, 2012

PIRSA:12060060

A covariant ultra-violet cutoff on the modes of physical fields on a given space-time can be achieved by cutting off the spectrum of the D'Alembertian of the manifold. This cutoff is a natural generalization of the naive ultra-violet cutoff inEuclidean space which is obtained by simply projecting out frequencies greater in magnitude than a given maximum frequency. Here it is shown that for flat spacetime and expanding FRW spacetimes thiscutoff manifests itself as a decrease in temporal degrees of freedom for large spatial modes. In a large class of expanding FRW spacetimes where the proper time co-ordinate ends at a finite value, it is shown how the numberof temporal degrees of freedom of a fixed spatial mode depends on the magnitude of the spatial mode. We further indicate how the effects of this ultra-violet cutoff on the dynamics of field theories can be studied, and how the resulting modifications to inflationary predictions of the CMB spectrum could be calculated. This talk is based on ongoing joint work with Prof. Achim Kempf (University of Waterloo) and Aidan Chatwin-Davies (UW).
Measuring Distance with Acceleration-assisted Entanglement Harvesting

We show that entanglement harvested from a quantum field by interaction with local detectors undergoing anti-parallel acceleration can be used to measure the distance of closest approach between the two detectors. Information about the separation is stored nonlocally in the phase of the joint state of the detectors after the interaction; a single detector alone contains none. We model the detectors as two-level quantum systems accelerating uniformly through the Minkowski vacuum while interacting for a short time with a massless scalar field. This interaction allows entanglement to be swapped locally from the field to the detectors. Although each detector alone sees the same thermal spectrum (due to Unruh radiation), the joint state between them may be entangled. In the vicinity of a critical distance of closest approach between the detectors, the phase of the entangled state depends sensitively on the distance. We contrast this with the case of parallel acceleration, in which no such critical distance exists, and we discuss the connection of this case with entanglement harvested from an expanding universe.

Black Hole Entrophy Related to Measures of Entanglement

Recently striking connections have been discovered between the research fields of black hole soultions in string theory and the one of entanglement measures in quantum entanglement theory.For the emerging research field the term The Black Hole/Qubit Correspondence has been coined. The basic idea is that wrapping configurations of extended objects in extra dimensions can give rise to interesting realizations of entangled systems and black holes at the same time. The geometry of the extra dimensions and the wrapping type determines the entangled system in question. Usually as the extra dimensional spaces Calabi-Yau manifolds are chosen. In this talk I give some hints how this constraint could be relaxed. These considerations might substantially generalize the range of validity of the Black-Hole/Qubit correspondence.
