Opposite post-processing orders of fermionic horizon channels and their quantum-resource monotonicity
arXiv:2608.08215
Abstract
Relativistic quantum-information studies in noninertial and black-hole settings often determine resource behavior through explicit calculations for particular input states and state functionals, leaving unclear whether the recurring monotonic trends originate from those choices or from a common underlying structure. In this work, we formulate the effective single-mode fermionic horizon transformation as a pair of complementary exterior and interior quantum channels, corresponding respectively to the physically accessible and inaccessible sectors, and establish exact post-processing orders in opposite directions. As the relativistic channel parameter increases, the exterior channel becomes progressively degraded, whereas the interior channel is ordered in the reverse direction. These relations extend to arbitrary multipartite settings. Consequently, every state functional that is non-increasing under the corresponding intermediate maps is non-increasing in homogeneous exterior sectors and non-decreasing in homogeneous interior sectors. The framework therefore applies to broad classes of quantum resources and correlations, including entanglement and occupation-basis coherence monotones, optimized Bell-functional quantities, and contractive-divergence correlation measures. We further numerically evaluate collective coherence based on the quantum Jensen-Shannon divergence (QJSD) in the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GHS) dilaton-black-hole spacetime, illustrating the predicted homogeneous monotonicity. The recurring trends are therefore traced to a common channel-ordering structure, while the physical setting determines the parameterization of and the resource-theoretic monotonicity determines which output-state quantities inherit the order.
