Apology:

Motivations for investigating Relativistic(Lorentz Invariant) QIS:Applications: e.g.quantum cryptography, entanglement-enhanced communication, high precision clock synchronization based upon shared entanglement, quantum-enhanced positioning, quantum teleportation,…
Need: careful analysis of properties of entangled particles under Lorentz transformations, & construction of meaningful measures of entanglement (key concept and primary resource in QIS)
Issues: Lorentz invariance of entanglement (?)Possible modifications to Bell Inequality violations => alter efficiency of eavesdropper detection, compromise security of quantum protocols.Quantum teleportation: Realizable, and compatible with QFT ?
![Page 4: Foray into Relativistic Quantum Information Science: Wigner Rotations and Bell States Chopin Soo Laboratory for Quantum Information Science (LQIS) (QIS/)](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649ecf5503460f94bdc4dc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Conceptual/consistency issues: e.g.
LOCC (local operation and classical communication) is often invoked (e.g. in quantum teleportation) in non-relativistic QIS, but quantum-classical interface not sharply defined.
Bell Inequality violation: =>
Not compatible with local, non-superluminal hidden variable theory.
“Compatible” with QM, and no faster-than-light communication.
But non-rel. QM not fully consistent (!) with Lorentz invariance and causal structure of spacetime.
OR (a better formulation(?))
violation is consequence of, and fully compatible with, quantum theory which is local, Lorentz invariant & causal => (QFT).

x2
x1
In Non-Relativistic Quantum Mechanics ([x,p] =1):
<x2|exp[-iH(x2- x1)0/] | x1> 0(x2)0 > (x1)0
Even if (s)2 = [(x2- x1)0]2 - [(x2- x1)].[(x2- x1)] < 0 (space-like) “faster-than-light”
If (s)2 < 0, Lorentz trans. : (x2’)0 < (x1’)0 (reversal of temporal order)
In Quantum Field Theory microcausality is ensured as
[i(x2 ),k(x1)]± = 0 (s)2 < 0

Quantum Mechanics:Wavefunction (“state”) does not transform unitarily under Lorentz trans.
Quantum Field Theory: = field operatorPhysical states |> are unitary (albeit infinite-dimensional) representation spaces of Lorentz group
Lorentz group: non-compact, no finite-dimensional unitary rep.
=> Questions regarding the validity of“fundamental 2-state qubit” of non-rel QIS (?) and “fundamental entangled(Bell) spin-up spin-down states” Of non-rel QIS with 1-ebit (?)
