• Abstract: A nonuniformly accelerated quantum field in a cavity undergoes the coordinate transformation of annihilation and creation operators, known as the Bogoliubov transformation. This study considers the entropy production of a quantum field in a cavity induced by the Bogoliubov transformation. By classifying the modes in the cavity into the system and environment, we obtain the lower bound of the entropy production, defined as the sum of the von Neumann entropy in the system and the heat dissipated to the environment. This lower bound represents the refined second law of thermodynamics for a quantum field in a cavity and can be interpreted as the Landauer principle, which yields the thermodynamic cost of changing information contained within the system. Moreover, it provides an upper bound for the quantum mutual information to quantify the extent of the information scrambling in the cavity due to acceleration.

• Catalytic Transformations of Pure Entangled States [62.997667081978825]
  Entanglement entropy is the von Neumann entropy of quantum entanglement of pure states. The relation between entanglement entropy and entanglement distillation has been known only for the setting, and the meaning of entanglement entropy in the single-copy regime has so far remained open. Our results imply that entanglement entropy quantifies the amount of entanglement available in a bipartite pure state to be used for quantum information processing, giving results an operational meaning also in entangled single-copy setup.

• Second law of thermodynamics for relativistic fluids formulated with relative entropy [0.0]
  The second law of thermodynamics is discussed and reformulated from a quantum information theoretic perspective. We discuss this first for generic quantum systems in contact with a thermal bath and then turn to a formulation suitable for the description of local dynamics. A local version of the second law similar to the one used in relativistic fluid dynamics can be formulated with relative entropy or even relative entanglement entropy in a space-time region bounded by two light cones.
