We incorporate non-local gravitational self-energy, motivated by string-inspired T-duality, into the Schr\"odinger-Newton equation. In this framework spacetime has an intrinsic non-locality, rendering the standard linear superposition…

The Schr\"odinger-Newton (SN) equation introduces a nonlinear self-gravitational term to the standard Schr\"odinger equation, offering a paradigmatic model for semiclassical gravity. However, the small deviations it predicts from standard…

Based on his extension of the classical argument of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen, Schr\"odinger observed that, in certain quantum states associated with pairs of particles that can be far away from one another, the result of the measurement…

Nonlinear modifications of quantum mechanics generically lead to nonlocal effects which violate relativistic causality. We study these effects using the functional Schrodinger equation for quantum fields and identify a type of nonlocality…

We discuss proofs of nonlocality based on a generalization by Erwin Schr\"odinger of the argument of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen. These proofs do not appeal in any way to Bell's inequalities. Indeed, one striking feature of the proofs is…
