The universe in a grain of sand Speaker(s): Steve Weinstein
Abstract: Recently rediscovered results in the theory of partial differential equations show that for free fields, the properties of the field in an arbitrarily small volume of space, traced through eternity,
determine completely the field everywhere at all times. Over finite
times, the field is determine... read more

Decoherence and the (non)emergence of classicality. Speaker(s): Steve Weinstein
Abstract: It is widely believed that the dynamical mechanism of decoherence plays a key role in understanding the emergence of classicality from quantum systems, via the environment-induced superselection of a preferred set of subsystem states, the density matrices for which are approximately diagonal in the ... read more

Backward causation models for quantum correlations Speaker(s): Steve Weinstein
Abstract: Bell\'s theorem is commonly understood to show that EPR correlations are not explainable via a local hidden variable theory.
But Bell\'s theorem assumes that the initial state of the particles is independent of the final detector settings. It has been proposed that this independence assumption migh... read more
