We develop a Fisher-informational reformulation of physical time in which clock time is not regarded as a fundamental ontological substance, but as an emergent calibration of causally ordered distinguishability among physical states. The…
Geometric phases, arising from cyclic evolutions in a curved parameter space, appear in a wealth of physical settings. Recently, and largely motivated by the need of an experimentally realistic definition for quantum computing applications,…
