Parametrizing Correlation Timing in Quantum Entanglement: A Lorentz-Structured Ansatz in Terms of Concurrence
Abstract
Quantum entanglement is commonly assumed to exhibit no measurable correlation delay, independent of entanglement strength. This paper asks whether that limit may be a special case rather than a universal property, and proposes a quantitative formulation for how correlation timing may depend on the degree of entanglement. The formulation parametrizes correlation timing as a function of Concurrence, satisfying three explicit requirements: zero delay at C = 1, classical light-travel time at C = 0, and continuous monotonic interpolation without new physical scales. Among the functions satisfying those requirements, the one selected preserves a Lorentz-like structure, with Concurrence playing the formal role of v/c. It is not a consequence of the standard formalism; it is a constrained candidate proposed for experimental confrontation. The formulation is placed on the table as a falsifiable quantitative candidate: open to experimental test, open to theoretical derivation from deeper principles, and open to replacement by a better parametrization. Its relevance is not tied to any single protocol or application.
