We show that the problem of non conservation of energy found in the spontaneous localization model developed by Ghirardi, Rimini and Weber is very similar to the inconsistency between the stochastic models for turbulence and the…
This paper is dedicated to revisit the modifications caused by branes in the collapse of a stellar structure under the Snyder-Oppenheimer scheme. Due to the homogeneity and isotropy of the model, we choose study the case of a closed…
Models of spontaneous wave function collapse describe the quantum-to-classical transition by assuming a progressive breakdown of the superposition principle when the mass of the system increases, providing a well-defined phenomenology in…
We present a spontaneous collapse model of a field theory on a 1+1 null lattice, in which the causal structure of the lattice plays a central role. Issues such as ``locality,'' ``non-locality'' and superluminal signaling are addressed in…
The Continuous Spontaneous Localisation (CSL) model is the most studied among collapse models, which describes the breakdown of the superposition principle for macroscopic systems. Here, we derive an upper bound on the parameters of the…
We make use of the powerful formalism of quantum parameter estimation to assess the characteristic rates of a Continuous Spontaneous Localisation (CSL) model affecting the motion of a massive mechanical system. We show that a study…
There is a striking convergence between Burgers turbulence and the continuous spontaneous localization [CSL] model of quantum mechanics. In this paper, we exploit this analogy showing the similarities in the physics of these two apparently…
In this paper, new upper limits on the parameters of the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) collapse model are extracted. To this end, the X-ray emission data collected by the IGEX collaboration are analyzed and compared with the…
This work identifies the existence and cause of a type of posterior collapse that frequently occurs in the Bayesian deep learning practice. For a general linear latent variable model that includes linear variational autoencoders as a…
The question of collapse (blow-up) in finite time is investigated for the two-dimensional (non-integrable) space-time nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equations. Starting from the two-dimensional extension of the well known AKNS q,r system,…
The CSL dynamical collapse structure, adapted to the relativistically invariant model where the collapse-generating operator is a one-dimensional scalar field $\hat\phi(x,t)$ (mass $m$) is discussed. A complete solution for the density…
Wavefunction collapse models modify Schr\"odinger's equation so that it describes the collapse of a superposition of macroscopically distinguishable states as a dynamical process. This provides a basis for the resolution of the quantum…
We consider the most cosmologically interesting and relevant case of scalar-tensor theory (STT) and derive new normal and phantom, dynamical and static, solutions. We determine the Bianchi I Kasner exponents and show that the dynamical…
Among the open problems in fundamental physics, few are as conceptually significant as the measurement problem in Quantum Mechanics. One of the proposed solutions to this problem is the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model, which…
We study the spherically symmetric collapse of a scalar field in anti-de Sitter spacetime using a newly constructed, open-source code which parallelizes over heterogeneous architectures using the open standard OpenCL. An open question for…
We study the gravitational collapse of a non-interacting mix of perfect fluid and a spatially homogeneous scalar field within a Chiellini-integrable framework. We choose an extended Higgs-type self-interaction potential and reduce the…
A relativistic collapse model for distinguishable particles is presented. Position and time, for each particle, are the fundamental operators of the theory. The Schr\"odinger equation is of the CSL form, with a Hermitian Hamiltonian and an…
The challenge of learning disentangled representation has recently attracted much attention and boils down to a competition using a new real world disentanglement dataset (Gondal et al., 2019). Various methods based on variational…
The basic strategy underlying models of spontaneous wave function collapse (collapse models) is to modify the Schroedinger equation by including nonlinear stochastic terms, which tend to localize wave functions in space in a dynamical…
Variational autoencoders have been widely applied for natural language generation, however, there are two long-standing problems: information under-representation and posterior collapse. The former arises from the fact that only the last…
