In this and a companion paper, we show that quantum field theories with gauge symmetries permit a broader class of classical dynamics than typically assumed. In this article, we show that the dynamics extracted from the path integral or…

We establish an exact information-geometric inequality that remains valid regardless of the underlying dynamics, encompassing both Markovian and non-Markovian evolutions within the mixed-state domain. This inequality can be viewed as an…

The quantum description of time evolution in non-linear gravitational systems such as cosmological space-times is not well understood. We show, in the simplified setting of mini-superspace, that time evolution of this system can be obtained…

We give a counter example to show that determinism as such is in contradiction to quantum mechanics. More precisely, we consider a simple quantum system and its environment, including the measurement device, and make the assumption that the…

The quantum evolution can be accelerated in non-Markovian environment. Previous results showed that the formation of system-environment bound state governs the quantum speedup. Although a stronger bound state in the system-environment…

We studied geometric quantum speed limits (QSL) of a qubit subject to decoherence in an ensemble of chloroform molecules in a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance experiment. The QSL is a fundamental lower bound on the evolution time for quantum…

In conventional quantum mechanics, all unitary evolution takes place within the space-time Hilbert space $\mathcal H_{xt}=L^2(\mathcal M_{xt})$, with time as the sole evolution parameter. The momentum-energy representation $\phi(k,E)$ is…

The usual quantization of a classical space-time field does not touch the non-geometrical character of quantum mechanics. We believe that the deep problems of unification of general relativity and quantum mechanics are rooted in this poor…
