Nonlocality beyond quantum mechanics

S Popescu - Nature Physics, 2014 - nature.com
Nonlocality is the most characteristic feature of quantum mechanics, but recent research
seems to suggest the possible existence of nonlocal correlations stronger than those …

Generalized probability theories: what determines the structure of quantum theory?

P Janotta, H Hinrichsen - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
The framework of generalized probabilistic theories is a powerful tool for studying the
foundations of quantum physics. It provides the basis for a variety of recent findings that …

Information–theoretic implications of quantum causal structures

R Chaves, C Majenz, D Gross - Nature communications, 2015 - nature.com
It is a relatively new insight of classical statistics that empirical data can contain information
about causation rather than mere correlation. First algorithms have been proposed that are …

Quantum theory from questions

PA Höhn, CSP Wever - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
We reconstruct the explicit formalism of qubit quantum theory from elementary rules on an
observer's information acquisition. Our approach is purely operational: we consider an …

QBism and the Greeks: why a quantum state does not represent an element of physical reality

CA Fuchs, R Schack - Physica Scripta, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract In QBism (or quantum Bayesianism) a quantum state does not represent an
element of physical reality but an agentʼs personal probability assignments, reflecting his …

Existence of an information unit as a postulate of quantum theory

L Masanes, MP Müller, R Augusiak… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
Does information play a significant role in the foundations of physics? Information is the
abstraction that allows us to refer to the states of systems when we choose to ignore the …

Probabilistic theories and reconstructions of quantum theory

M Müller - SciPost Physics Lecture Notes, 2021 - scipost.org
These lecture notes provide a basic introduction to the framework of generalized
probabilistic theories (GPTs) and a sketch of a reconstruction of quantum theory (QT) from …

[HTML][HTML] Toolbox for reconstructing quantum theory from rules on information acquisition

PA Höhn - Quantum, 2017 - quantum-journal.org
We develop an operational approach for reconstructing the quantum theory of qubit systems
from elementary rules on information acquisition. The focus lies on an observer $ O …

Simulating noisy quantum channels via quantum state preparation algorithms

MS Zanetti, DF Pinto, MLW Basso… - Journal of Physics B …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract In Xin et al (2017 Phys. Rev. A 96 062303) and Wei et al (2018 Sci. China Phys.
Mech. Astron. 61 70311), the authors reported an algorithm to simulate, in a circuit-based …

Quantum mechanics as classical statistical mechanics with an ontic extension and an epistemic restriction

A Budiyono, D Rohrlich - Nature communications, 2017 - nature.com
Where does quantum mechanics part ways with classical mechanics? How does quantum
randomness differ fundamentally from classical randomness? We cannot fully explain how …
