We compute, for massive particles, the explicit Wigner rotations of one-particle states for arbitrary Lorentz transformations; and the explicit Hermitian generators of the infinite-dimensional unitary representation. For a pair of spin 1/2 particles, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bell entangled states and their behaviour under the Lorentz group are analysed in the context of quantum field theory. Group theoretical considerations suggest a convenient definition of the Bell states which is slightly different from the conventional assignment. The behaviour of Bell states under arbitrary Lorentz transformations can then be described succinctly. Reduced density matrices applicable to identical particles are defined through Yangs prescription. The von Neumann entropy of each of the reduced density matrix is Lorentz invariant; and its relevance as a measure of entanglement is discussed, and illustrated with an explicit example. A regularization of the entropy in terms of generalized zeta functions is also suggested.

We study the entanglement transition in monitored Brownian SYK chains in the large-$N$ limit. Without measurement the steady state $n$-th Renyi entropy is obtained by summing over a class of solutions, and is found to saturate to the Page value in the $nrightarrow 1$ limit. In the presence of measurements, the analytical continuation $nrightarrow 1$ is performed using the cyclic symmetric solution. The result shows that as the monitoring rate increases, a continuous von Neumann entanglement entropy transition from volume-law to area-law occurs at the point of replica symmetry unbreaking.
We prove the existence of a universal recovery channel that approximately recovers states on a v. Neumann subalgebra when the change in relative entropy, with respect to a fixed reference state, is small. Our result is a generalization of previous results that applied to type-I v. Neumann algebras by Junge at al. [arXiv:1509.07127]. We broadly follow their proof strategy but consider here arbitrary v. Neumann algebras, where qualitatively new issues arise. Our results hinge on the construction of certain analytic vectors and computations/estimations of their Araki-Masuda $L_p$ norms. We comment on applications to the quantum null energy condition.
We consider in this work the problem of minimizing the von Neumann entropy under the constraints that the density of particles, the current, and the kinetic energy of the system is fixed at each point of space. The unique minimizer is a self-adjoint positive trace class operator, and our objective is to characterize its form. We will show that this minimizer is solution to a self-consistent nonlinear eigenvalue problem. One of the main difficulties in the proof is to parametrize the feasible set in order to derive the Euler-Lagrange equation, and we will proceed by constructing an appropriate form of perturbations of the minimizer. The question of deriving quantum statistical equilibria is at the heart of the quantum hydrody-namical models introduced by Degond and Ringhofer in [5]. An original feature of the problem is the local nature of constraints, i.e. they depend on position, while more classical models consider the total number of particles, the total current and the total energy in the system to be fixed.
In this article, we study the Sagnac effect for spin-$1/2$ particles through local Wigner rotations according to the framework developed by [H. Terashima and M. Ueda, Phys. Rev. A 69, 032113 (2004)]. Since the spin of the particle plays the role of a quantum `clock, as the quanton moves in a superposed path it gets entangled with the momentum (or the path), and this will cause the interferometric visibility to drop, since there is a difference in proper time elapsed along the two trajectories, which is known as the Sagnac time delay.
Assessing whether a given network is typical or atypical for a random-network ensemble (i.e., network-ensemble comparison) has widespread applications ranging from null-model selection and hypothesis testing to clustering and classifying networks. We develop a framework for network-ensemble comparison by subjecting the network to stochastic rewiring. We study two rewiring processes, uniform and degree-preserved rewiring, which yield random-network ensembles that converge to the Erdos-Renyi and configuration-model ensembles, respectively. We study convergence through von Neumann entropy (VNE), a network summary statistic measuring information content based on the spectra of a Laplacian matrix, and develop a perturbation analysis for the expected effect of rewiring on VNE. Our analysis yields an estimate for how many rewires are required for a given network to resemble a typical network from an ensemble, offering a computationally efficient quantity for network-ensemble comparison that does not require simulation of the corresponding rewiring process.
