Globally-constrained classical fields provide a unexplored framework for modeling quantum
phenomena, including apparent particle-like behavior. By allowing controllable constraints …

We present a general framework of examining the validity of weak measurement—the
standard procedure to acquire Aharonov's weak value—which has been used intensively in …

A precision phase detection scheme employing a weak-value amplification (WVA) technique
is proposed and demonstrated. With a minimum detectable phase change of rad, the …

In questioning the completeness of quantum mechanics, Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR)
claimed that from the outcomes of local experiments performed on an entangled system, it …

We present a detailed description of the experiment realizing for the first time a protective
measurement, a novel measurement protocol which combines weak interactions with a …

The so-called eigenvalue-eigenstate link states that no property can be associated to a
quantum system unless it is in an eigenstate of the corresponding operator. This precludes …

We introduce an experimental test for ruling out classical explanations for the statistics
obtained when measuring arbitrary observables at arbitrary times using individual detectors …

The time derivative of a physical property often gives rise to another meaningful property.
Since weak values provide empirical insights that cannot be derived from expectation …

Weak values have been in the field of quantum theory since 1988, it has been criticized well,
and theorized more well. From its applications to optical fields, many basic thought …

The work presented in this thesis is dedicated to the understanding of practical and
conceptual challenges in simulating dynamical properties beyond the quasi-static …
