Abstract
Uncertainty relations in terms of entropies were initially proposed to deal with conceptual
shortcomings in the original formulation of the uncertainty principle and, hence, play an
important role in quantum foundations. In quantum information theory, the preferred
mathematical quantity to express the entropic uncertainty relation is the Shannon’s entropy. In
this work, we investigate the effect of a classical driving field on entropic uncertainty lower
bound (EULB). In this regard, we consider a particle as the quantum memory correlated with a
measured particle, where during the interaction with the environment, the quantum memory is
driven by the external classical field. Our result reveals that in the presence of the classical
driving fields, the EULB is reduced and consequently, the measurement accuracy is increased.

in which λi ’s are the eigenvalues,

Hermitian matrix R = ρρ̃ ρ with ρ̃ = (σyA ⊗ σyB )ρ∗ (σyA ⊗

the Pauli matrix. Therefore, the following analytical form for
the concurrence of the given bipartite quantum state (22) is
obtained as

C (ρAB (t)) = 2|G (t) |. (30)

The entanglement witness of the bipartite quantum state (22)


in the Markovian regime with λ = 1.5R, is depicted in
figure 2(a). Here, we choose the two complementary observ-
ables σ̂x and σ̂z as the measurements operators, which leads to
the maximal complementarity between them; that is, c = 1/2
and thus log2 (1/c) = 1. It is evident that increasing the power
of the classical field (Ω) leads to an increase in the regions
where entanglement is witnessed. This means that, for this
case, the entanglement regions witnessed by them are approx-
imately [0, 1.2], [0, 5.7] and [0, 31.6] for Ω = 0, 2R, 5R respect-
ively. Moreover, the amount of entanglement, as quantified
by concurrence in the Markovian regime with λ = 1.5R is
depicted in figure 2(c). As expected, environmental effects will
degrade the entanglement. However, as shown in figure 2(c),
increasing the power of the classical field (Ω) reduces the rate
of entanglement degradation, thereby preserving the entangle-
ment for longer periods.
Figure 2(e) illustrates the evolution of the EULB over time
in the Markovian regime with λ = 1.5R. It is evident that the
bound of the EULB increases over time due to environmental
effects. Nevertheless, the rapid escalation of uncertainty over Figure 2. Dynamics of (a), (b) entanglement witness, (c), (d)
