Quantum entanglement of the Minkowski vacuum state between left and right Rindler wedges generates thermal behavior in the right Rindler wedge, which is known as the Unruh effect. In this letter, we show that there is another consequence of this entanglement, namely entanglement-induced quantum radiation emanating from a uniformly accelerated object. We clarify why it is in agreement with our intuition that incoming and outgoing energy fluxes should cancel each other out in a thermalized state.
The Minkowski vacuum state is expressed as an entangled state between the left and right Rindler wedges when it is constructed on the Rindler vacuum. In this paper, we further examine the entanglement structure and extend the expression to the future (expanding) and past (shrinking) Kasner spacetimes. This clarifies the origin of the quantum radiation produced by an Unruh--DeWitt detector in uniformly accelerated motion in the four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. We also investigate the two-dimensional massless case where the quantum radiation vanishes but the same entanglement structure exists.
We investigate the quantum radiation produced by an Unruh-De Witt detector in a uniformly accelerating motion coupled to the vacuum fluctuations. Quantum radiation is nonvanishing, which is consistent with the previous calculation by Lin and Hu [Phys. Rev. D 73, 124018 (2006)]. We infer that this quantum radiation from the Unruh-De Witt detector is generated by the nonlocal correlation of the Minkowski vacuum state, which has its origin in the entanglement of the state between the left and the right Rindler wedges.
In this note, we describe how collections of arbitrary numbers of BC-bits, distinct non-interacting quantum systems each consisting of a holographic boundary conformal field theory (BCFT), can be placed in multipartite entangled states in order to encode single connected bulk spacetimes that approximate geometries dual to holographic CFT states. The BC-bit version of a holographic CFT state corresponds to a geometry that can be made arbitrarily similar to the associated CFT-state geometry within a causal diamond region defined by points that are spacelike separated from the boundary time slice at which the state is defined. These holographic multi BC-bit states can be well-represented by tensor networks in which the individual tensors are associated with states of small numbers of BC-bits.
We consider spacetime initiated by a finite-sized boundary on which a pure initial matter state is set as a natural generalization of the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary state. We study entanglement entropy of the gravitationally prepared matter state at the final time slice. We find that the entropy of the initial state or the entanglement island gives the entropy for large subregions on the final time slice. Consequently, we find the entanglement entropy is bounded from above by the boundary area of the island, leading to an entropy bound in terms of the island formula. The island $I$ appears in the analytically continued spacetime, either at the bra or the ket part of the spacetime in Schwinger-Keldysh formalism, and the entropy is given by an average of pseudo entropy of each entanglement island. We find a necessary condition of the initial state to be consistent with the strong sub-additivity. The condition requires that any probe degrees of freedom are thermally entangled with the rest of the system. We then study which initial condition leads to our finite-sized initial boundary or the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary state. Due to the absence of a moment of time reflection symmetry, the island in our setup requires a generalization of the entanglement wedge, which we call {it{pseudo entanglement wedge}}. In pseudo entanglement wedge reconstruction, we consider reconstructing the bulk matter transition matrix on $Acup I$, from a fine-grained state on $A$. The bulk transition matrix is given by a thermofield double state with a projection by the initial state. We provide an AdS/BCFT model, which provides a double holography model of our setup by considering EOW branes with corners. We also find the exponential hardness of such reconstruction task using a generalization of Pythons lunch conjecture to pseudo generalized entropy.
In this work, our prime objective is to study non-locality and long-range effects of two-body correlation using quantum entanglement from the various information-theoretic measures in the static patch of de Sitter space using a two-body Open Quantum System (OQS). The OQS is described by a system of two entangled atoms, surrounded by a thermal bath, which is modelled by a massless probe scalar field. Firstly, we partially trace over the bath field and construct the Gorini Kossakowski Sudarshan Lindblad (GSKL) master equation, which describes the time evolution of the reduced subsystem density matrix. This GSKL master equation is characterized by two components, these are-Spin chain interaction Hamiltonian and the Lindbladian. To fix the form of both of them, we compute the Wightman functions for probe massless scalar field. Using this result along with the large time equilibrium behaviour we obtain the analytical solution for reduced density matrix. Further using this solution we evaluate various entanglement measures, namely Von-Neumann entropy, R$e$nyi entropy, logarithmic negativity, entanglement of formation, concurrence and quantum discord for the two atomic subsystems on the static patch of De-Sitter space. Finally, we have studied the violation of Bell-CHSH inequality, which is the key ingredient to study non-locality in primordial cosmology.
