Quantitative bounds to propagation of quantum correlations in many-body systems

Abstract
We investigate how much information about a quantum system can be simultaneously communicated to independent observers, by establishing quantitative limits to bipartite quantum correlations in many-body systems. As recently reported in Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 010401 (2022), bounds on quantum discord and entanglement of formation between a single quantum system and its environment, e.g., a large number of photons, dictate that independent observers which monitor environment fragments inevitably acquire only classical information about the system. Here, we corroborate and generalize those findings. First, we calculate continuity bounds of quantum discord, which establish how much states with a small amount of quantum correlations deviate from being embeddings of classical probability distributions. Also, we demonstrate a universally valid upper bound to the bipartite entanglement of formation between an arbitrary pair of components of a many-body quantum system. The results confirm that proliferation of classical information in the Universe suppresses quantum correlations.
