Objective past of a quantum universe: Redundant records of consistent histories

Creator:

Riedel, C. Jess, Zurek, Wojciech H., and Zwolak, Michael

Abstract:

Motivated by the advances of quantum Darwinism and recognizing the role played by redundancy in identifying the small subset of quantum states with resilience characteristic of objective classical reality, we explore the implications of redundant records for consistent histories. The consistent histories formalism is a tool for describing sequences of...

Amplification, Redundancy, and Quantum Chernoff Information

Creator:

Zwolak, Michael, Riedel, C. Jess, and Zurek, Wojciech H.

Abstract:

Amplification was regarded, since the early days of quantum theory, as a mysterious ingredient that endows quantum microstates with macroscopic consequences, key to the “collapse of the wave packet,” and a way to avoid embarrassing problems exemplified by Schrödinger’s cat. Such a bridge between the quantum microworld and the classical...

The rise and fall of redundancy in decoherence and quantum Darwinism

Creator:

Riedel, C. Jess, Zurek, Wojciech H., and Zwolak, Michael

Abstract:

A state selected at random from the Hilbert space of a many-body system is overwhelmingly likely to exhibit highly non-classical correlations. For these typical states, half of the environment must be measured by an observer to determine the state of a given subsystem. The objectivity of classical reality—the fact that...
