Entanglement partners and monogamy in de Sitter universes
arXiv:2305.18662 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.108.045002
Abstract
We investigate entanglement of local spatial modes defined by a quantum field in a de Sitter universe. The introduced modes show dis-entanglement behavior when the separation between two regions where local modes are assigned becomes larger than the cosmological horizon. To understand the emergence of separability between these local modes, we apply the monogamy inequality proposed by S. Camalet. We embed the focusing bipartite mode defined by the quantum field in a pure four-mode Gaussian state, and identify its partner modes. Then applying a Gaussian version of the monogamy relation, we show that the external entanglement between the bipartite mode and its partner modes constrains the entanglement of the bipartite mode. Thus the emergence of separability of local modes in the de Sitter universe can be understood from the perspective of entanglement monogamy.
