Model for Entangled States with Spin-Spin Interaction

Yakir Aharonov, Jeeva Anandan, G. Jordan Maclay +1

A system consisting of two neutral spin 1/2 particles is analyzed for two magnetic field perturbations: 1) an inhomogeneous magnetic field over all space, and 2) external fields ov…

Quantum Mechanics in a Rotating Frame

Jeeva Anandan, Jun Suzuki

The rotating frame is considered in quantum mechanics on the basis of the position dependent boost relating this frame to the non rotating inertial frame. We derive the Sagnac phas…

Laws, Symmetries, and Reality

Jeeva Anandan

It is argued that quantum mechanics follows naturally from the assumptions that there are no fundamental causal laws but only probabilities for physical processes that are constrai…

Putting a Spin on the Aharonov-Bohm Oscillations

Jeeva Anandan

An experiment that shows the modulation of the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations of magneto-resistance in a mesoscopic ring is described. Possible theoretical explanations of this modulat…

Some aspects of separability

Shengjun Wu, Jeeva Anandan

We present three necessary separability criteria for bipartite mixed states, the violation of each of these conditions is a sufficient condition for entanglement. Some ideas on the…

Reply to `Singularities of the mixed state phase'

J. Anandan, E. Sjöqvist, A. K. Pati +4

The only difference between Bhandari's viewpoint [quant-ph/0108058] and ours [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 2845 (2000)] is that our phase is defined modulo , whereas Bhandari argues th…

Symmetries, Quantum Geometry, and the Fundamental Interactions

Jeeva Anandan

A generalized Noether's theorem and the operational determination of a physical geometry in quantum physics are used to motivate a quantum geometry consisting of relations between…

Geometric phases for mixed states in interferometry

Erik Sjöqvist, Arun K. Pati, Artur Ekert +4

We provide a physical prescription based on interferometry for introducing the total phase of a mixed state undergoing unitary evolution, which has been an elusive concept in the p…

On the Relation Between Quantum Mechanical and Classical Parallel Transport

J. Anandan, L. Stodolsky

We explain how the kind of ``parallel transport'' of a wavefunction used in discussing the Berry or Geometrical phase induces the conventional parallel transport of certain real ve…

Are There Dynamical Laws?

Jeeva S. Anandan

The nature of a physical law is examined, and it is suggested that there may not be any fundamental dynamical laws. This explains the intrinsic indeterminism of quantum theory. The…

Meaning of the Density Matrix

Y. Aharonov, J. Anandan

Protective measurement, which was proposed as a method of observing the wavefunction of a single system, is extended to the observation of the density matrix of a single system. d'…
