On the Preparation of States in Nonlinear Quantum Mechanics
Speaker(s): Nicolas Menicucci
Abstract: Recent analysis of closed timelike curves from an information-theoretic perspective has led to contradictory conclusions about their information-processing power. One thing is generally agreed upon, however, which is that if such curves exist, the quantum-like evolution they imply would be non... read more

Entangling Power of an Expanding Universe
Speaker(s): Nicolas Menicucci
Abstract: Quantum fields in the Minkowski vacuum are entangled with respect to local field modes. This entanglement can be swapped to spatially separated quantum systems using standard local couplings. A single, inertial field detector in the exponentially expanding (de Sitter) vacuum responds as if it were b... read more
