    Quantum theory sets the bound on the minimal evolution time between initial and final states of the quantum system. This minimal evolution time can be used to specify the maximal speed of the evolution in open and closed quantum systems. Quantum speed limit is one of the interesting issue in the theory of open quantum systems. One may investigate the influence of the relativistic effect on the quantum speed limit time. When several observers are placed in different inertial or non-inertial frames, or in Schwarzschild space-time, the relativistic effect should be taken into account. In this work, the quantum speed limit time in Schwarzschild space-time will be studied for two various model consist of damped Jaynes-Cummings and Ohmic-like dephasing. First, it will be observed that how quantum coherence is affected by Hawking radiation. According to the dependence of quantum speed limit time on quantum coherence and the dependence of quantum coherence on relative distance of quantum system to event horizon R0R_{0}, it will be represented that the quantum speed limit time in Schwarzschild space-time is decreased by increasing R0R_{0} for damped Jaynes-Cummings model and conversely, It is increased by increasing R0R_{0} for Ohmic-like dephasing model .Comment: 9 pages, 10 figures, comments and suggestions are welcom

    Tightening the entropic uncertainty bound in the presence of quantum memory

    Full text link
    The uncertainty principle is a fundamental principle in quantum physics. It implies that the measurement outcomes of two incompatible observables can not be predicted simultaneously. In quantum information theory, this principle can be expressed in terms of entropic measures. Berta \emph{et al}. [\href{http://www.nature.com/doifinder/10.1038/nphys1734}{ Nature Phys. 6, 659 (2010) }] have indicated that uncertainty bound can be altered by considering a particle as a quantum memory correlating with the primary particle. In this article, we obtain a lower bound for entropic uncertainty in the presence of a quantum memory by adding an additional term depending on Holevo quantity and mutual information. We conclude that our lower bound will be tighten with respect to that of Berta \emph{et al.}, when the accessible information about measurements outcomes is less than the mutual information of the joint state. Some examples have been investigated for which our lower bound is tighter than the Berta's \emph{et al.} lower bound. Using our lower bound, a lower bound for the entanglement of formation of bipartite quantum states has obtained, as well as an upper bound for the regularized distillable common randomness.Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure to appear in PRA 201
