On Quantum Generalizations of Information
... If p(xi , yj ) = p(xi ) × p(yj ) for all i, j then p(xi , yj ) is merely a “product distribution”. In this case there is no correlation among X and Y and the mutual information is 0 (the logarithm’s value in Equation 14 vanishes). However, if X and Y are in the least correlated, then I(X; Y ) is pos ...

If real, they would represent a real non-local causation, not merely the usual non-local correlations found in quantum mechanics. In fact, such effects would make ordinary quantum measurement theory inconsistent. But ...

Towards Fully Quantum Mechanical 3D Device Simulations

However, we note that the current is directly proportional to the mobility in our model; changing the mobility (that we treat as constant in this example) therefore changes the value of the current but does not affect the electron density or potential profile.

Metric fluctuations and decoherence
... The decoherence time depends strongly on the scale of the energy difference E. For example, E = 1eV gives a decoherence time of the order of 1013 s, while E = 1MeV leads to a decoherence time of the order of 10 s. 5. Summary and discussion In [7] we showed that a fluctuating spacetime metric woul ...
