We propose a way to unify two approaches of non-cloning in quantum lambda-calculi: logical and algebraic linearities. The first approach is to forbid duplicating variables, while the second is to consider all lambda-terms as…
In a recent article [Phys. Rev. A 57, 1572 (1998)] Caticha has concluded that ``nonlinear variants of quantum mechanics are inconsistent.'' In this note we identify what it is that nonlinear quantum theories have been shown to be…
The theoretical framework behind a recent experiment by Nogueira et. al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 86}, 4009 (2001)] of spatial antibunching in a two-photon state generated by collinear type II parametric down-conversion and a birefringent…
It is a well known fact that an quantum state $|\psi(\theta,\phi)>$ is represented by a point on the Bloch sphere, characterized by two parameters $\theta$ and $\phi$. In a recent work we already proved that it is impossible to partially…
Specker's principle, the condition that pairwise orthogonal propositions must be jointly orthogonal, has been much investigated recently within the programme of finding physical principles to characterise quantum mechanics. It largely…
Although it is widely accepted that `no-broadcasting' -- the nonclonability of quantum information -- is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics, an impossibility theorem for the broadcasting of general density matrices has not yet…
We show that optical nonlinearities allow sub-wavelength beams to propagate in circular trajectories without being attenuated in spite of their partially evanescent spectrum. Such beams are exact solutions to Maxwell's equations with Kerr…
Recent results demonstrating superluminal group velocities and tachyonic dispersion relations reopen the question of superluminal signals and causal loop paradoxes. The sense in which superluminal signals are permitted is explained in terms…
It is known that no quantum process can produce a predetermined superposition of unknown arbitrary states. It has already been shown that with some partial information about the states, one can produce with some probability such…
The paper elucidates the physical basis of experimental results on superluminal signal velocity. It will be made plausible that superluminal signals do not violate the principle of causality but they can shorten the luminal vacuum time span…
After a short introduction to the UV/IR mixing in non-commutative field theories we review the properties of scalar quasi-particles in non-commutative supersymmetric gauge theories at finite temperature. In particular we discuss the…
Frequency-domain nonlinear wave mixing processes may be described either using response functions whereby the signal is generated after all interactions with the incoming fields, or in terms of scattering amplitudes where all fields are…
In this paper we analyze the problem of "apparent" superluminal signalling and retrocausation that can appear for particle detector models when considering non-compactly supported field-detector interactions in quantum field theory in…
We show that the recent reinterpretation of oxygen isotope effects in cuprate superconductors by D. R. Harshman et al. is mathematically and physically incorrect violating the Anderson theorem and the Coulomb law.
The main objective of this work is to show, through counterexamples, that some of the theorems presented in the papers of Sharma \textit{et al.} (2018) and Chauhan \textit{et al.} ( 2021) are incorrect. Although they used these theorems to…
We exploit the analogy between tunnelling across a potential barrier and Aharonov's weak measurements to resolve the long standing paradox between the impossibility to exceed the speed of light and the seemingly 'superluminal' behaviur of…
An explanation for superluminal phenomena based on wave-particle duality of photons is suggested. A single photon may be regarded as a wave packet, whose spatial extension is its coherence volume. As a photon propagates as a wave train in…
In Ref. [1] the authors claim that the Almost Quantum set of correlations cannot reproduce two points on the boundary of the quantum set of correlations. This claim is incorrect. The underlying issue is that the associated SDP is not…
Gell-Mann and Hartle (GMH) have recently considered time-neutral cosmological models in which the initial and final conditions are independently specified, and several authors have investigated experimental tests of such models. We point…
