Non-Monogamy of Spatio-Temporal Correlations and the Black Hole Information Loss Paradox

open9sìPseudo-density matrices are a generalisation of quantum states and do not obey monogamy of quantum correlations. Could this be the solution to the paradox of information loss during the evaporation of a black hole? In this paper we discuss this possibility, providing a theoretical proposal to extend quantum theory with these pseudo-states to describe the statistics arising in black-hole evaporation. We also provide an experimental demonstration of this theoretical proposal, using a simulation in optical regime, that tomographically reproduces the correlations of the pseudo-density matrix describing this physical phenomenon.openMarletto, Chiara; Vedral, Vlatko; Virzì, Salvatore; Rebufello, Enrico; Avella, Alessio; Piacentini, Fabrizio; Gramegna, Marco; Degiovanni, Ivo Pietro; Genovese, MarcoMarletto, Chiara; Vedral, Vlatko; Virzì, Salvatore; Rebufello, Enrico; Avella, Alessio; Piacentini, Fabrizio; Gramegna, Marco; Degiovanni, Ivo Pietro; Genovese, Marc

Binary Black Hole Information Loss Paradox & Future Prospects

Various techniques to tackle the black hole information paradox have been proposed. A new way out to tackle the paradox is via the use of a pseudo-density operator. This approach has successfully dealt with the problem with a two qubit entangle system for a single black hole. In this paper, we present the interaction with a binary black hole system by using an arrangement of the three qubit system of Greenberger Horne Zeilinger (GHZ) state. We show that our results are in excellent agreement with the theoretical value. We have also studied the interaction between the two black holes by considering the correlation between the qubits in the binary black hole system. The results depict a complete agreement with the proposed model. In addition to the verification, we also propose how modern detection of gravitational waves can be used on our optical setup as an input source, thus bridging the gap with the gravitational wave's observational resources in terms of studying black hole properties with respect to quantum information and entanglement

Relativistic collapse dynamics and black hole information loss

We study a proposal for the resolution of the black hole information puzzle within the context of modified versions of quantum theory involving spontaneous reduction of the quantum state. The theories of this kind, which were developed in order to address the so called "measurement problem" in quantum theory have, in the past, been framed in a non-relativistic setting and in that form they were previously applied to the black hole information problem. Here, and for the first time, we show in a simple toy model, a treatment of the problem within a fully relativistic setting. We also discuss the issues that the present analysis leaves as open problems to be dealt with in future refinements of the present approach.Comment: 39 pages, 3 figure

Temporal teleportation with pseudo-density operators: How dynamics emerges from temporal entanglement

open8We show that, by using temporal quantum correlations as expressed by pseudo-density operators (PDOs), it is possible to recover formally the standard quantum dynamical evolution as a sequence of teleportations in time. We demonstrate that any completely positive evolution can be formally reconstructed by teleportation with different temporally correlated states. This provides a different interpretation of maximally correlated PDOs, as resources to induce quantum time evolution. Furthermore, we note that the possibility of this protocol stems from the strict formal correspondence between spatial and temporal entanglement in quantum theory. We proceed to demonstrate experimentally this correspondence, by showing a multipartite violation of generalized temporal and spatial Bell inequalities and verifying agreement with theoretical predictions to a high degree of accuracy, in high-quality photon qubits.openMarletto, C; Vedral, V; Virzi', S; Avella, A; Piacentini, F; Gramegna, M; Degiovanni, IP; Genovese, MMarletto, C; Vedral, V; Virzi', S; Avella, A; Piacentini, F; Gramegna, M; Degiovanni, Ip; Genovese,

Dynamics of quantum information in many-body systems with nonlocal interactions

The dynamics of quantum information lies at the heart of future technologies that aim to utilize the laws of quantum mechanics for practical purposes. Beyond that, it provides a unifying language that shines new light on longstanding problems home to historically separate fields of theoretical physics. Considering how quantum information propagates and spreads over the degrees of freedom of a quantum many-body system far from equilibrium has proven particularly helpful for various subjects, ranging from the emergence of statistical mechanics in isolated quantum systems to the black hole information paradox. Crucial for these developments are impressive experimental advances that nowadays allow us to explore the nonequilibrium physics of paradigmatic, simple, and (almost) isolated quantum many-body systems in the laboratory. In this thesis, we investigate the dynamics of quantum information in one-dimensional systems of interacting qubits, i.e., spin-chains, where we particularly consider systems that embody nonlocal interactions. The latter are ubiquitous in many experimental platforms for quantum simulation. Our results reveal an interesting connection between two complementary probes of quantum information dynamics, i.e., entanglement growth and operator spreading. This connection allows us to characterize different dynamical classes and underlines that nonlocal interactions induce rich behavior, such as slow thermalization accompanied by superballistic information propagation. In particular, we show that the famous slowdown of entanglement growth in systems with powerlaw interactions implies a slowdown of operator dynamics. The latter clearly distinguishes a system with powerlaw interactions from a system possessing fast scrambling, a characteristic property of black holes and holographic duals to theories of quantum gravity

Every entangled stuff has its own avatar

During the last century, entanglement was the bone of contention between the two main pillars of Physics: General Relativity (GR) and Quantum Mechanics (QM). This began in 1935 with the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox (EPR paradox) which concluded that although QuantumMechanics is not wrong, it is an incomplete theory to represent physical reality. In this paper it is demonstrated that some byproducts resulting from entanglement, which we will call avatars, act as a hinge that link both theories making the completeness of QM clear. Moreover, a thorough analysis of the non-locality of this effect will be carried out while demonstrating that entanglement is an instantaneous phenomenon, and that it does not require the use of a superluminal signaling for this purpose. Finally, the avatars will also appear in each wormhole resulting from an entanglement process (WREP) demonstrating that they are traversable with an equivalent path of null length which can be crossed in a null time with all that this implies in Quantum Communications
