An inhomogeneous Kaluza-Klein compactification to four dimensions, followed by a conformal transformation, results in a system with position dependent mass (PDM). This origin of a PDM is quite different from the condensed matter one. A substantial ge
neralization of a previously studied nonlinear oscillator with variable mass is obtained, wherein the position dependence of the mass of a nonrelativistic particle is due to a dilatonic coupling function emerging from the extra dimension. Previously obtained solutions for such systems can be extended and reinterpreted as nonrelativistic particles interacting with dilaton fields, which, themselves, can have interesting structures. An application is presented for the nonlinear oscillator, where within the new scenario the particle is coupled to a dilatonic string.
In this paper we extend the investigation of Adami and Ver Steeg [Class. Quantum Grav. textbf{31}, 075015 (2014)] to treat the process of black hole particle emission effectively as the analogous quantum optical process of parametric down conversion
(PDC) with a dynamical (depleted vs. non-depleted) `pump source mode which models the evaporating black hole (BH) energy degree of freedom. We investigate both the short time (non-depleted pump) and long time (depleted pump) regimes of the quantum state and its impact on the Holevo channel capacity for communicating information from the far past to the far future in the presence of Hawking radiation. The new feature introduced in this work is the coupling of the emitted Hawking radiation modes through the common black hole `source pump mode which phenomenologically represents a quantized energy degree of freedom of the gravitational field. This (zero-dimensional) model serves as a simplified arena to explore BH particle production/evaporation and back-action effects under an explicitly unitary evolution which enforces quantized energy/particle conservation. Within our analogous quantum optical model we examine the entanglement between two emitted particle/anti-particle and anti-particle/particle pairs coupled via the black hole (BH) evaporating `pump source. We also analytically and dynamically verify the `Page information time for our model which refers to the conventionally held belief that the information in the BH radiation becomes significant after the black hole has evaporated half its initial energy into the outgoing radiation. Lastly, we investigate the effect of BH particle production/evaporation on two modes in the exterior region of the BH event horizon that are initially maximally entangled, when one mode falls inward and interacts with the black hole, and the other remains forever outside and non-interacting.
We show how to approximately represent a quantum state using the square root of the usual amount of classical memory. The classical representation of an $n$-qubit state $psi$ consists of its inner products with $O(sqrt{2^n})$ stabilizer states. A qua
ntum state initially specified by its $2^n$ entries in the computational basis can be compressed to this form in time $O(2^n mathrm{poly}(n))$, and, subsequently, the compressed description can be used to additively approximate the expectation value of an arbitrary observable. Our compression scheme directly gives a new protocol for the vector in subspace problem with randomized one-way communication complexity that matches (up to polylogarithmic factors) the optimal upper bound, due to Raz. We obtain an exponential improvement over Razs protocol in terms of computational efficiency.
We describe spacelike and timelike (causally connected) events on an equal footing by utilizing detectors coupled to timers that store information about a given system and the moment of measurement. By tracing out the system and focusing on the detec
tors and timers states, events are represented by a tensor product structure. Furthermore, including a time register gives rise to a temporal superposition analogous to the familiar spatial superposition in quantum mechanics. We verify that the presence of coherence can ensure a causal connection between events. We also propose a causal correlation function involving the detection times to characterize the type of events. Finally, we verify that our formalism allows us to simultaneously apply quantum information concepts to spacelike and timelike events. In this context we observe, in the limit of instantaneous measurements, a deterministic relationship between causally connected events similar to that of spatially entangled physical systems; i.e. observing the state of one of the systems (in our case, knowing a previous event), enables us to learn precisely the state of the other system (we delineate a later event).
Quantum theory and relativity offer different conceptions of time. To explore the conflict between them, we study a quantum version of the light-clock commonly used to illustrate relativistic time dilation. This semiclassical model combines elements
of both theories. We show for Gaussian states of the light field that the clock time is independent of the initial state. We calculate the discrepancy between two such clocks when one is held in a gravitational field and the other is left to fall a certain distance. Contrasting our results with the case of pointlike observers in general relativity, as well as classical light-clocks, we find both quantitative and qualitative differences. We find that the quantum contribution to the discrepancy between the two clocks increases with the gravitational field strength, and results in a minimum resolution of the dropped clock (distinct from the quantum uncertainty in its measurement).
