    We propose an experimental method for extracting the zero-point energy from a local vacuum state by performing local operations and classical communication (LOCC). We model a quantum Hall edge channel as a quantum entangled many-body channel and the zero-point fluctuation in the charge density of the channel as the vacuum state. We estimate the order of the energy gain using reasonable experimental parameters. Such a quantum feedback system breaks the passivity of a local vacuum state. It can be used to demonstrate Maxwell's demon or quantum energy teleportation in which no physical entity transports energy.

  1. The final burst of the moving mirror is unrelated to the partner mode of analog Hawking radiation Peer-reviewed

    Flying mirrors with appropriate trajectories have been recognized as an analog system that mimics black hole Hawking evaporation and have been widely investigated. It has recently been suggested that the partner mode of the analog Hawking radiation emitted from a moving mirror would manifest itself through a final burst when the mirror executes a sudden stop. Here we argue the opposite via the partner formula for the moving mirror model. By expanding the theoretical foundation of the partner formula and augmenting it with numerical analysis, we demonstrate that the supposed final burst is induced by a shock that requires the input of external energy, whereas the Hawking radiation partner mode, which is associated with the zero-point vacuum fluctuations, is not responsible for the burst.

  2. Probability vector representation of the Schrödinger equation and noninvasive measurability for Leggett-Garg inequalities

    Masahiro Hotta, Sebastian Murk

    2023/12/26

    More details Close

    Leggett-Garg inequalities place bounds on the temporal correlations of a system based on the principles of macroscopic realism (MR) and noninvasive measurability (NM). Their conventional formulation relies on the ensemble-averaged products of observables measured at different instants of time. However, this expectation value based approach does not provide a clear definition of NM. A complete description that enables a precise understanding and captures all physically relevant features requires the study of probability distributions associated with noncommuting observables. In this article, we propose a scheme to describe the dynamics of generic $N$-level quantum systems via a probability vector representation of the Schr\"odinger equation and define a precise notion of NM for the probability distributions of noncommuting observables. This allows us to elucidate MR itself more clearly, eliminating any potential confusion. In addition, we introduce a measure to quantify violations of NM for arbitrary quantum states. For single-qubit systems, we pinpoint the pivotal relation that establishes a connection between the disturbance of observables incurred during a measurement and the resulting NM violation.

  3. Analog de Sitter universe in quantum Hall systems with an expanding edge Peer-reviewed

    Expanding edges in quantum Hall systems can become a simulator of quantum 1+1 dimensional expanding universes. In these systems, edge exciations are represented as a chiral scalar field in curved spacetimes. We investigate Hawking radiation and entanglement behavior predicted by this model assuming that the expansion law of the edge region corresponds to a de Sitter universe. As observable quantities for the quantum field, local spatial modes associated with detection regions are introduced using window functions for the field, and their correlations are evaluated. We found impact of Hawking radiation caused by the edge expansion on auto-correlation functions of the local modes, and confirmed that entanglement death due to Hawking radiation occurs. This behavior of entanglement is related to ``quantum to classical transition" in cosmic inflations.

  4. Limitations of Quantum Measurements and Operations of Scattering Type under the Energy Conservation Law

    It is important to improve the accuracy of quantum measurements and operations both in engineering and fundamental physics. It is known, however, that the achievable accuracy of measurements and unitary operations are generally limited by conservation laws according to the Wigner-Araki-Yanase theorem (WAY theorem) and its generalizations. Although many researches have extended the WAY theorem quantitatively, most of them, as well as the original WAY theorem, concern only additive conservation laws like the angular momentum conservation law. In this paper, we explore the limitation incurred by the energy conservation law, which is universal but is one of the non-additive conservation laws. We present a lower bound for the error of a quantum measurement using a scattering process satisfying the energy conservation law. We obtain conditions that a control system Hamiltonian must fulfill in order to implement a controlled unitary gate with zero error when a scattering process is considered. We also show the quantitative relationship between the upper bound of the gate fidelity of a controlled unitary gate and the energy fluctuation of systems when a target system and a control system are both one qubit.

  5. Deep Learning Metric Detectors in General Relativity

    We consider conceptual issues of deep learning (DL) for metric detectors using test particle geodesics in curved spacetimes. Advantages of DL metric detectors are emphasized from a view point of general coordinate transformations. Two given metrics (two spacetimes) are defined to be conneted by a DL isometry if their geodesic image data cannot be discriminated by any DL metric detector at any time. The fundamental question of when the DL isometry appears is extensively explored. If the two spacetimes connected by the DL isometry are in superposition of quantum gravity theory, the post-measurement state may be still in the same superposition even after DL metric detectors observe the superposed state. We also demonstrate metric-detection DL's in 2+1 dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes to estimate the cosmological constants and Brown-Henneaux charges. In the AdS/CFT correspondence dictionary, it may be expected that such metric detectors in the AdS bulk region correspond to quantum measurement devices in the CFT at the AdS boundary.

    Expanding edge experiments are promising to open new physics windows of quantum Hall systems. In a static edge, the edge excitation, which is described by free fields decoupled with the bulk dynamics, is gapless, and the dynamics preserve conformal symmetry. When the edge expands, such properties need not be preserved. We formulate a quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensional curved spacetimes to analyze the edge dynamics. We propose methods to address the following questions using edge waveforms from the expanding region: Does the conformal symmetry survive? Is the nonlinear interaction of the edge excitations induced by edge expansion? Do the edge excitations interact with the bulk excitations? We additionally show that the expanding edges can be regarded as expanding universe simulators of two-dimensional dilaton-gravity models, including the Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity model. As an application, we point out that our theoretical setup might simulate emission of analog Hawking radiation with the Gibbons-Hawking temperature from the future de Sitter horizon formed in the expanding edge region.

    Asymptotic symmetries of black hole spacetimes have received much attention as a possible origin of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy in black hole thermodynamics. In general, it takes hard efforts to find appropriate asymptotic conditions on a metric and a Lie algebra generating the transformation of symmetries with which the corresponding charges are integrable. We here propose an alternative approach to construct building blocks of asymptotic symmetries of a given spacetime metric. Our algorithmic approach may make it easier to explore asymptotic symmetries in any spacetime than in conventional approaches. As an explicit application, we analyze the asymptotic symmetries on Rindler horizon. We find a new class of symmetries related with dilatation transformations in time and in the direction perpendicular to the horizon, which we term superdilatations.

    We prove a nonperturbative duality concerning the dynamics of harmonic-oscillator-type Unruh-DeWitt detectors in curved spacetimes. Concretely, using the Takagi transformation we show that the action of a harmonic oscillator Unruh-DeWitt detector with one frequency in a spacetime is equal to that of a detector with a different frequency in a conformally related spacetime. As an example, we show that the dynamics of simple stationary detectors in flat spacetime is dual to that of detectors in a cosmological scenario. The nonperturbative duality enables us to investigate entanglement harvesting in new scenarios in curved spacetime by using results obtained in simpler, conformally related spacetimes.

    Quantum fluctuations yield inevitable noises in quantum detection. We derive an upper bound of signal to noise ratio for arbitrary quantum detection described by trace-class operators with discrete spectra. The bound is independent of observables to be detected and is computed by quantum fidelity of two initial quantum states. We provide applications of the upper bound.

    In the information loss problem in black hole evaporation, investigation of the purification partner of a Hawking particle is crucial. It is a well-known fact that 3+1 dimensional spherically symmetric gravitational collapse can be approximately described by 1+1 dimensional moving mirror models. Since a detected particle in field theory is defined by what a particle detector observes, the diversity of detector designs yields a variety of particles and their partners. We provide a formula of generalized partners of detected particles emitted out of mirrors in arbitrary motion in a free massless scalar field theory. Using the formula, we directly demonstrate information storage about pre-thermal information in a pure state of a Hawking particle and its partner. The partner form drastically changes depending on the detailed designs of particle detectors for the Hawking radiation. In a case of the Hawking particle and its partner sensitive to information about pre-thermal era, spatial configurations of the partner has long tails in a stage where only zero-point fluctuation is emitted out of the mirror.

  12. Quantum Information Capsule in Multiple-Qudit Systems and Continuous-Variable Systems

    Quantum correlations in an entangled many-body system are capable of storing information. Even when the information is injected by a local unitary operation to the system, the entanglement delocalizes it. In a recent study on multiple-qubit systems, it is shown that a virtual qubit defined in the correlation space plays a role of perfect storage of delocalized information, which is called a quantum information capsule (QIC). In order to enhance the capacity of quantum information storage, it is crucial to formulate the cases for multiple-qudit systems and continuous-variable (CV) systems. We analytically prove that it is possible to construct a QIC for general write operations of the systems. It turns out that the extension to quantum field theory is achievable. For Gaussian states, we explicitly construct a QIC for shift write operations. We analyze the time-evolution of QIC in a CV system to demonstrate the diffusion of information in entangled pure states.

    Nothingness is not empty in physics. It stands for the vacuum state of quantum fields with spatially entangled zero-point fluctuation. The vacuum entanglement allows for quantum protocols which attain energy transportation using only local operations and classical communication in an operational meaning. Thus the protocol is referred to as quantum energy teleportation (QET). QET is expected to be implemented by using quantum Hall edge currents. QET also sheds new light on the information loss problem of black hole evaporation.

    The development of techniques for manipulation of quantum information has opened the door to a variety of protocols for accomplishing unprecedented tasks. In particular, a new protocol of quantum teleportation was proposed in 2008 to achieve effective energy transportation simply via local operations and classical communication without breaking any known physical laws. This is achieved by extracting zero-point energy of entangled many-body systems by local operations dependent on information obtained by a distant measurement. The concept is reviewed from an introductory viewpoint herein.
