Quantum Theory Looks at Time Travel
... This also has enormous consequences on the paradoxes of free will. It shows that it is perfectly logical to assume that one has many choices and that one is free to take any one of them. Until a choice is taken, the future is not determined. However, once a choice is taken, and it leads to a particu ...

Local Observables in Quantum Theory
... Most experimental tests of quantum theory pertain only to “global observables” such as the total energy, total momentum, and total angular momentum. Nevertheless, a purely local quantity, the position probability density ρ, plays a central role in the theory. And the very existence of ρ entails the ...

Density-Matrix Description of the EPR “Paradox”
... Although the original system was prepared as a pure state, Alice’s knowledge of that system (when she is out of lightspeed communication with Bob and the second qbit) is as if her qbit was prepared as a 50:50 mixed state of |0A and |1A . Nothing Bob does changes her understanding of the qbit A (un ...
