We prove an analogue of the Lieb--Thirring inequality for many-body quantum systems with the kinetic operator $\sum_i (-\Delta_i)^s$ and the interaction potential of the form $\sum_i \delta_i^{-2s}$ where $\delta_i$ is the nearest-neighbor…

We revisit the study of the violation of the Leggett-Garg inequality in neutrino oscillation data as a mean to test some of the fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics. In particular, we consider the results of the Daya Bay and RENO…

Quantum Space Time may be characterized by a plethora of novel phenomena, such as Lorentz violations and non-trivial refractive indices, stochastic metric fluctuation effects leading to decoherence of quantum matter and non-commutativity of…

Many theories of quantum gravity can be understood as imposing a minimum length scale the signatures of which can potentially be seen in precise table top experiments. In this work we inspect the capacity for correlated many body systems to…

In the cryptographic context, an earlier unexplored application of the temporal version of the Bell-type inequality is shown here in the device-independent (DI) scenario. This is done by using the Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) to…

We propose to use Ramsey interferometry and single-site addressability, available in synthetic matter such as cold atoms or trapped ions, to measure real-space and time resolved spin correlation functions. These correlation functions…

Quantum mechanics has predicted many counterintuitive phenomena in daily life, and has changed our view of the world. Among such predictions, the existence of a macroscopic object in superposition is especially unbelievable. As Einstein…

The Hilbert space formalism of quantum theory manifests a map between bipartite states and time evolutions, known as Jamiolkowski isomorphism. We extend this map in a physical setting to prove the equality of spatial correlations in…

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…

Leggett-type nonlocal realist inequalities that have been derived to date are all contingent upon suitable geometrical constraints to be strictly satisfied by the spatial arrangement of the relevant measurement settings. This undesirable…

Many-body localization has become an important phenomenon for illuminating a potential rift between non-equilibrium quantum systems and statistical mechanics. However, the nature of the transition between ergodic and localized phases in…

Quantum simulators of lattice gauge theories involve dynamics of typically short-ranged interacting particles and dynamical fields. Elimination of the latter via Gauss law leads to infinite range interactions as exemplified by the Schwinger…

Violations of classicality can be probed through measurements performed on a system at different times, as proposed by Leggett and Garg. Specifically, violations of Leggett-Garg inequalities suggest the presence of quantum effects in…

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…

We discuss a scheme for macrorealistic theories of the Leggett-Garg form [A. J. Leggett and A. Garg, Phys. Rev. Lett. 54, 857 (1985)]. Our scheme is based on a hybrid optomechanical system. It seems reasonable to test these inequalities…

Measuring unitarily-evolved quantum mechanical two-time correlations is challenging in general. In a recent paper [P.~Uhrich {\em et al.}, Phys.\ Rev.~A {\bf 96}, 022127 (2017)], a considerable simplification of this task has been pointed…

Space-like and time-like invariant space-time intervals are used to analyse measurements of spatial and temporal distances. The former are found to be Lorentz invariant --there is no `relativistic length contraction', whereas the latter…
