We consider two different types of conditions which were proposed to test macrorealism in the context of a system described by a single dichotomic variable Q. This is the view that a macroscopic system evolving in time possesses definite…
I study several aspects of tests of macrorealism (MR), which for a given data set serves to give a quantitative signal of the presence of a specific notion of non-classical behaviour. The insufficiency of classical understanding underpins…
The Leggett-Garg (LG) inequalities were introduced, as a temporal parallel of the Bell inequalities, to test macroscopic realism -- the view that a macroscopic system evolving in time possesses definite properties which can be determined…
Macrorealism (MR) is the world view that certain quantities may take definite values at all times irrespective of past or future measurements and may be experimentally falsified via the Leggett-Garg (LG) inequalities. We put this world view…
Macroscopic realism (MR) is the notion that a time-evolving system possesses definite properties, irrespective of past or future measurements. Quantum mechanical theories can, however, produce violations of MR. Most research to date has…
Macroscopic realism (MR) is the view that a system may possess definite properties at any time independent of past or future measurements, and may be tested experimentally using the Leggett-Garg inequalities (LGIs). In this work we advance…
If the time evolution of a system can be understood classically, then there must exist an underlying probability distribution for the variables describing the system at all times. It is well known that for systems described by a single…
Macrorealism formalizes the intuitive notion that at any given time the system occupies a definite state and that the evolution of the system is independent of the measurements performed on it, in contrast to the principles of quantum…
For multilevel spin systems, robustness of the quantum mechanical (QM) violation of macrorealism (MR) with respect to coarse grained measurements is investigated using three different necessary conditions of MR, namely, the Leggett-Garg…
Tests of local realism and macrorealism have historically been discussed in very similar terms: Leggett-Garg inequalities follow Bell inequalities as necessary conditions for classical behavior. Here, we compare the probability polytopes…
Macroscopic realism, the classical world view that macroscopic objects exist independently of and are not influenced by measurements, is usually tested using Leggett-Garg inequalities. Recently, another necessary condition called…
The Leggett-Garg (LG) inequalities were proposed in order to assess whether sets of pairs of sequential measurements on a single quantum system can be consistent with an underlying notion of macrorealism. Here, the LG inequalities are…
Macro-realistic description of systems is based majorly on two basic intuitions about the classical world, namely, macrorealism per se, that is, the system is always in a distinct state, and non-invasive measurements, that is, measurements…
We investigate the relation between a refined version of Leggett and Garg conditions for macrorealism, namely the no-signaling-in-time (NSIT) conditions, and the quantum mechanical notion of nondisturbance between measurements. We show that…
We propose a test of macrorealism that exploits the contextuality of two-time correlation functions to escape the so-called "clumsiness loophole" that plagues Leggett-Garg inequalities. The non-contextuality of reduced joint probability…
Leggett Garg inequalities (LGIs) test the incompatibility between the notion of macrorealism and quantum mechanics. For unitary dynamics, the optimal quantum violation of an LGI is constrained by the L\"uders bound. However, the LGIs does…
In the tests for macrorealism proposed by Leggett and Garg, the temporal correlation functions of a dichotomic variable Q must be measured in a non-invasive way to rule out alternative classical explanations of Leggett-Garg inequality…
The Leggett-Garg (LG) test of macroscopic realism involves a series of dichotomic non-invasive measurements that are used to calculate a function which has a fixed upper bound for a macrorealistic system and a larger upper bound for a…
In 1985, Leggett and Garg put forward the concept of macroscopic realism (macrorealism) and, in analogy to Bell's theorem, derived a necessary condition in terms of inequalities, which are now known as the Leggett-Garg inequalities. In this…
Macroscopic Realism (MR) says that a macroscopic system is always determinately in one or other of the macroscopically distinguishable states available to it. The Leggett-Garg (LG) inequality was derived to allow experimental test of…
