Abstract
In this paper, we study the Fisher information metric on the space of the coupling constants on both sides of the duality between non-relativistic dipole field theories and string theory in Schrödinger spacetime. We consider the following setup. In the gauge theory side one can deform a given conformal field theory by a proper scalar operator and compute the quantum information metric via the two-point correlation function between two such operators. On the string side the deformation corresponds to a scalar field probing the background. In the large N limit of the theory the probing can be done without backreaction on the original spacetime, thus one can construct a perturbative scheme for the calculation of the dual holographic Fisher information metric as shown by [1]. Considering the asymptotic behaviour of the holographic Fisher information metric close to the boundary of the Schrödinger spacetime we show that its divergence structure exactly matches its dual quantum counterpart up to the leading order, thus extending the holographic setup up to the non-relativistic case. One should note that the existence of other terms is not seen from the boundary theory to this level of approximation. Their behaviour near the boundary, however, is pointing what kind of information from the boundary theory is missing to be able to reconstruct the bulk. Obviously, more work is needed to refine and elucidate their meaning and interrelations in holographic setup.

Notes
We will refer to t as the real time and \(\tau =-it\) as the Wick-rotated time.
In general, we consider the situation where the original Lagrangian \({\mathcal {L}}_0\) has an explicit dependence on a number of physical parameters \(\lambda ^a\), \(a=1,\dots , n\), thus one can deform the theory by multiple operators with corresponding real coupling constants \(\lambda ^a\rightarrow \lambda ^a+\delta \lambda ^a\). However, it will be qualitatively informative to consider only one such deformation.
In general, the complex quantity \(G_{ab}\) is called the quantum geometric tensor. Its real part is the quantum information metric and its imaginary part is known as the Berry curvature. Usually, the quantum Fisher information metric is defined to be 4 times the quantum information metric, \(F_{ab}=4\mathfrak {R}{(G_{ab})}\). However, with a slight abuse of notation, we will follow the terminology established by [1] and call \(G_{ab}\) the quantum information metric or QIM.
Fidelity is a quantum measure, which specifies the degree of change occurring in the system by turning on the deformations. Let us note that there is also another definition, \({\mathcal {F}}'=|\langle \psi |\xi \rangle |=\sqrt{\mathcal {F}}\), which is sometimes referred to as quantum fidelity as well. However, \({\mathcal {F}}\) is more common, while \({\mathcal {F}}'\) could be referred to as the square root fidelity.
The presence of the cutoff \(\epsilon \) around \(\tau =0\) is necessary to address any ultraviolet divergences in case there is a discontinuity, when passing from the original to the deformed Lagrangian.
It is conjectured to be a specific non-local field theory, namely dipole field theory (see Appendix A for more information).
Note that this picture is a bit different from the one in Sect. (2.1). When considering the dual gravitational theory we have to consider the full range of the CFT theory \({\mathcal {L}}_0\) for \(\tau \in (-\infty , +\infty )\). The same is valid also for the deformed theory with \({\mathcal {L}}_1\), which now should also be considered for \(\tau \in (-\infty , +\infty )\). Finally, a new theory with \({\mathcal {L}}_2={\mathcal {L}}_1\) only for \(\tau \in (0, +\infty )\) is required for consistency of the perturbative bulk holographic method.
The source function \({\hat{\phi }} _0(\mathbf {x}_1,\tau _1)=1\), which can be seen from the asymptotic expansion of the Bessel functions, defining the propagator near the boundary at \(r=0\), see [4].
In this section we prefer to directly call \({G_{\lambda \lambda }^{Bulk}}\) HFIM, which in the correct asymptotic limits will be shown to reduce to QIM and thus equivalent to QFIM.
In this case, the bulk theory is \((d+3)\)-dimensional Schrödinger spacetime and the dual gauge theory lives on the \((d+1)\)-dimensional boundary.
Such investigations for holographic entanglement entropy, mutual information and entanglement of purification over holographic Lifshitz theory have been already initiated in [65].
For a detailed group-theoretical perspective on non-relativistic holography see [8].
Together with the metric the procedure also generates a nonzero B-field of the form
$$\begin{aligned} B_{(2)}=\frac{1}{z^2}{\mathcal {K}}\wedge dx^+. \end{aligned}$$Here \({\hat{\phi }} _0(\mathbf {x}_1,\tau _1)=1\).

A short note on how to generate Schrödinger spacetimes and their dual CFT theories
The symmetry of the free Schrödinger equation
is the so-called Schrödinger group. In n-dimensional spacetime the group consists of spatial translations indicated by \(\mathbf {A}\), rotations given by the matrix \(\Omega \), and Galilean boosts with velocity \(\mathbf {v}\),
In addition, one has dilatation, where time and space scale differently
and one additional special conformal transformation
From group theory point of view, the Schrödinger group can be thought of as a non-relativistic analogue of the conformal group. In fact, the Schrödinger group can be embedded into the relativistic conformal group \(SO(2,n+2)\) in \(n+1\) dimensions [3, 4, 66], as well as a particular contraction of the conformal group.
For purposes of the holographic correspondence it is important to consider spaces with the Schrödinger group being the maximal group of isometries.Footnote 12 Such spaces are called Schrödinger spaces. There is a specific way to obtain the spacetime geometry equipped with this symmetry via TsT (T-duality-shift-T-duality) transformations.
Our starting point is the AdS metric, which is invariant under the whole conformal group and deform it to reduce the symmetry down to the Schrödinger group.
Being a particular case of the so-called Drinfel’d-Reshetikhin twist, the TsT procedure has been used for generating many backgrounds keeping partial or full integrability of the system. Specific point in generating Schrödinger backgrounds via TsT transformations is to include one of the light-cone variables. This particular deformation is also known as the null-Melvin twist. This procedure can be implemented by the following key steps:
-
Represent the theory in light-cone coordinates and identify a Killing direction, say \(\psi \),
-
Perform a T-duality along the chosen Killing direction \(\psi \),
-
Boost the geometry in the Killing direction by \(\hat{\mu }\), i.e. \(x^- \rightarrow x^- - \hat{\mu } \tilde{\psi }\), where \(\tilde{\psi }\) is the T-dualized coordinate \(\psi \),
-
Finally, perform a T-duality back to IIA/IIB along \({\tilde{\psi }}\).
In order to accomplish the desired result consider general background in the form \(AdS_n\times X^m\),
Now we perform a null Melvin twist along a Killing vector \({\mathcal {K}}\) on \(X^m\). The result is
where the Schrödinger metric yields
Here the Hodge star operator \(*\) is taken with respect to the metric on \(X^m\). It is clear that \(\Omega \) is nonnegative being a square length of a Killing vector.Footnote 13 For particular examples see [20, 21, 67,68,69].Footnote 14
An important remark is that in order to make holographic sense of these solutions one has to impose some conditions. In particular for these to be holographic duals to non-relativistic field theories the light-cone coordinate \(x^-\) should be periodic, \(x^-\sim {x^-} +2\pi r_{x^-}\) [3, 4, 19]. The momentum along this compact direction is quantized in units of the inverse radius \(r_{x^-}^{-1}\).
The dual theory is conjectured to be a specific field theory, namely dipole field theory. The TsT transformation, which produces the bulk theory corresponds to a particular deformation (Drinfel’d-Reshetikhin twist) on field theory side. It translates to the dual theory as a star product. When the directions involved in TsT are transverse to the stack of branes from which geometry descends, it produces a twist in the field theory having ordinary product. If however, one of the directions is along the branes, then the star product is non-trivial and the theory becomes dipole one
where \(L=L_1+L_2\) is the dipole length associated with R-charges. The big advantage of holographic model with Schrödinger symmetry is that they could be integrable. Proving that in the case of \(Schr_5\times S^5\) for example, the authors of [70] were able to map the composite operators of monomial form to a spin chain. To study field theory side one must just replace the ordinary product with the star one
Here, one can choose to work either using Seiberg–Witten map or working directly with the star product. A nice analysis has been presented in [70].
Derivation of the CFT quantum geometric tensor
Let \(|\varphi \rangle \) be a generic state, inserted at \(\tau =0\). The overlap between the original ground state \(|\psi _0\rangle \) at \(\tau \rightarrow -\infty \) and this new state at \(\tau \rightarrow 0\) is given by
where \({\tilde{\varphi }}=\varphi (\tau =0)\) and the partition function of the initial undeformed theory is defined by
In a similar fashion, one can consider the evolution from \(\tau = 0\), where \(|{\tilde{\varphi }}\rangle \) is inserted, to \(\tau \rightarrow \infty \), where we are placing the perturbed state \(|\psi _1\rangle \),
As usually,
is the partition function of the deformed theory. Now, the overlap between both states in the above notations can be formally written as
Let us write this overlap in a more convenient way [71]
therefore, one has
We can now easily expand this expression in power series
Since we have time reversal symmetry of the correlator,
and the fact that
one finds
Using the definition of the quantum fidelity, we extract the expression for QIM from Eq. (2.2).
Computation of the dual CFT quantum Fisher metric
One has to compute the following integral expression
which is a Gaussian integral over \(\mathbf {x}\) space, i.e.
where \(V_{{\mathbb {R}}^{d}}\) is the volume of \({\mathbb {R}}^{d}\) space and we have resorted to the standard Gaussian integral [72]:
We can check this by setting \(\xi = \frac{M(1+i \varepsilon )}{{2({\tau _2} - {\tau _1})}}\), thus
The integrals over \(\tau _1\) and \(\tau _2\) now take the form
where the integrals are convergent only if
Therefore, QIM in the dual CFT to Schrödinger spacetime yields
where at the final expression we have removed the regulator \( \varepsilon \) from the correlation function.
Computation of the bulk holographic Fisher metric
1.1 Computation of the fields \(\phi _{1,2}\)
We will be integrating the bulk-to-boundary propagator \(K(r,\mathbf {x},\tau ;{{\mathbf {x}}_1},{\tau _1})\) over \(x_1\) and \(\tau _1\), when \(\tau _1<\tau \). Therefore, the field \(\phi _1\) is given byFootnote 15
where we have introduced the notation
Let us calculate the last integral. For this purpose, we change the variables to \(y=\tau -\tau _1\) with boundaries
hence,
where one has the convergence condition
The field \(\phi _1\) now becomes
We can do a similar computation for the field \(\phi _2\), namely
where at the end we have returned to real time \(\tau \rightarrow -i t\), and we have defined the parameter
1.2 Computation of the HFIM integrals
In order to compute Eqs. (4.7) and (4.8) we have to consider the metric \(\gamma _{ab}\), \(a,b=0,\dots , d\), on the (\(d+1\))-dimensional boundary of the Schrödinger background, namely
where \(\mathbf {x}\) is a d-dimensional vector. Therefore, one finds
On the other hand, only the \(n_r\) component of the normal vector to the boundary contributes, which can be explicitly calculated from
Hence \(n^r=r/L\) and consequently \(n_r=g_{rr} n^r=L/r\). Finally, one has
Now, we can proceed with the computation of the bulk holographic Fisher information metric, which can be written by
where the coefficients \(c_i\) are given by
Consequently, one has to compute the following integrals
In order to solve \(J_1\) we transform the incomplete gamma function in the following way
which follows directly from
for \(n=2\) and we have also used \(\Gamma (a)=(a-1) \Gamma (a-1)\). Hence, the integral \(J_1\) now becomes
The integral \(J_2\) is more complicated, but also analytically solvable if we use the following power reduction formula [73]:
Let \(\epsilon =T_1\) and \(T=T_2\), hence
The inner integral is
thus
where
The solution is the following. Let \({\mathfrak {b}}_{1,2}=\mu /T_{1,2}\), then
Therefore, one finds
In the previous computations we have used the following integral representation of the incomplete gamma function
With similar calculations for \(I_{3,4}\), one finds
Now we use
thus
Therefore, one has
Putting everything together we get the complete expression for \(J_2\), namely
The final expression for the holographic Fisher metric yields
with coefficients \(a_i=-b_i\), \(i=1,\dots , 7\), where
where \({\mathcal {B}}\) is the incomplete beta function.
