... Theorem: Suppose U implements (say) a computationallyuniversal, reversible cellular automaton. Then after t=exp(n) iterations, C(|t) is superpolynomial in n, unless something very unlikely happens with complexity classes (PSPACEPP/poly) Proof Sketch: I proved in 2004 that PP=PostBQP Suppose C(| ...

Classical limit and quantum logic - Philsci
... In the foundations of physics, the quest of explaining how the laws of classical mechanics arise from the laws of quantum mechanics is known as the classical limit problem (Cohen 1989). Generally, this limit is studied for systems that, due to its interaction with the environment, develop a process ...

B.3 Time dependent quantum mechanics
... Time-independent perturbation theory is based on the idea that if H H0 V , and the matrix elements or eigenfunctions of H0 are known, we can derive corrected energy levels based on the smallness of the perturbation V compared to H0 . Time dependent perturbation theory follows a very similar idea ...

Comment on Griffiths about locality, realism and Bell experiments
... Experiments in physics usually consist of getting information about physical systems in specific states. A particular state is obtained after an appropriate preparation and the information is usually got via measurments. To be general enough I will consider that the result of the measurement is stat ...

Time Evolution of States for Open Quantum
... 0 < t < ε, ρ̂S (t) is a mixed state for ε small enough. For isolated (closed) systems, if the initial state is pure then it stays pure at every time, as it can be easily seen using equation (1.3). So our first step in this paper is to compute p̈ur (0). In particular for a large class of models, incl ...
