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 detectors 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).

The aim of the present paper is twofold. First, to give the main ideas behind quantum computingand quantum information, a field based on quantum-mechanical phenomena. Therefore, a shortreview is devoted to (i) quantum bits or qubits (and more general
ly qudits), the analogues of theusual bits 0 and 1 of the classical information theory, and to (ii) two characteristics of quantummechanics, namely, linearity (which manifests itself through the superposition of qubits and theaction of unitary operators on qubits) and entanglement of certain multi-qubit states (a resourcethat is specific to quantum mechanics). Second, to focus on some mathematical problems relatedto the so-called mutually unbiased bases used in quantum computing and quantum informationprocessing. In this direction, the construction of mutually unbiased bases is presented via twodistinct approaches: one based on the group SU(2) and the other on Galois fields and Galois rings.
We give a pedagogical introduction of the stochastic variational method and show that this generalized variational principle describes classical and quantum mechanics in a unified way.
An entanglement measure for a bipartite quantum system is a state functional that vanishes on separable states and that does not increase under separable (local) operations. It is well-known that for pure states, essentially all entanglement measures
are equal to the v. Neumann entropy of the reduced state, but for mixed states, this uniqueness is lost. In quantum field theory, bipartite systems are associated with causally disjoint regions. There are no separable (normal) states to begin with when the regions touch each other, so one must leave a finite safety-corridor. Due to this corridor, the normal states of bipartite systems are necessarily mixed, and the v. Neumann entropy is not a good entanglement measure in the above sense. In this paper, we study various entanglement measures which vanish on separable states, do not increase under separable (local) operations, and have other desirable properties. In particular, we study the relative entanglement entropy, defined as the minimum relative entropy between the given state and an arbitrary separable state. We establish rigorous upper and lower bounds in various quantum field theoretic (QFT) models, as well as also model-independent ones. The former include free fields on static spacetime manifolds in general dimensions, or integrable models with factorizing $S$-matrix in 1+1 dimensions. The latter include bounds on ground states in general conformal QFTs, charged states (including charges with braid-group statistics) or thermal states in theories satisfying a nuclearity condition. Typically, the bounds show a divergent behavior when the systems get close to each other--sometimes of the form of a generalized area law--and decay when the systems are far apart. Our main technical tools are of operator algebraic nature.
The phase space of a relativistic system can be identified with the future tube of complexified Minkowski space. As well as a complex structure and a symplectic structure, the future tube, seen as an eight-dimensional real manifold, is endowed with a
natural positive-definite Riemannian metric that accommodates the underlying geometry of the indefinite Minkowski space metric, together with its symmetry group. A unitary representation of the 15-parameter group of conformal transformations can then be constructed that acts upon the Hilbert space of square-integrable holomorphic functions on the future tube. These structures are enough to allow one to put forward a quantum theory of phase-space events. In particular, a theory of quantum measurement can be formulated in a relativistic setting, based on the use of positive operator valued measures, for the detection of phase-space events, hence allowing one to assign probabilities to the outcomes of joint space-time and four-momentum measurements in a manifestly covariant framework. This leads to a localization theorem for phase-space events in relativistic quantum theory, determined by the associated Compton wavelength.
The classical Einstein-Hilbert (EH) action for general relativity (GR) is shown to be formally analogous to the classical system with position-dependent mass (PDM) models. The analogy is developed and used to build the covariant classical Hamiltonian
as well as defining an alternative phase portrait for GR. The set of associated Hamiltons equations in the phase space is presented as a first-order system dual to the Einstein field equations. Following the principles of quantum mechanics, I build a canonical theory for the classical general. A fully consistent quantum Hamiltonian for GR is constructed based on adopting a high dimensional phase space. It is observed that the functional wave equation is timeless. As a direct application, I present an alternative wave equation for quantum cosmology. In comparison to the standard Arnowitt-Deser-Misner(ADM) decomposition and quantum gravity proposals, I extended my analysis beyond the covariant regime when the metric is decomposed into the $3+1$ dimensional ADM decomposition. I showed that an equal dimensional phase space can be obtained if one applies ADM decomposed metric.
