Nonlinear evolution and signaling

Abstract

We propose a condition, called convex quasi-linearity, for deterministic nonlinear quantum evolutions. Evolutions satisfying this condition do not allow for arbitrary fast signaling, therefore, they cannot be ruled out by a standard argument. We also give an explicit example of a nonlinear qubit evolution satisfying quasi-linearity.
