Grover's search algorithm and the quantum measurement problem
Manoj K. Samal, Partha Ghose
It is suggested that the individual outcomes of a measurement process can be understood within standard quantum mechanics in terms of the measuring apparatus, treated as a quantum…
EPR Type Nonlocality in Classical Electrodynamics!
Partha Ghose, M. K. Samal
It is shown that classical electrodynamics in its alternative Kemmer-Duffin-Petiau-Harish-Chandra formulation surprisingly reveals a Hilbert space structure leading to the possibil…
Speculations on a Unified Theory of Matter and Mind
Manoj K. Samal
Physics is so successful today in understanding the nature of matter. What can it say about mind ? Is it possible to have a unified theory of matter and mind within the framework o…
Gravity Induced New Topological Phase in Optics
Partha Ghose, M. K. Samal
It is shown that both classical and quantum light can acquire a topological phase shift induced by classical gravity, and the latter is detectable in a laboratory-scale experiment.
Does nonorthogonality necessarily imply nonmaximal entanglement ?
Dipankar Home, M K Samal
We show that bipartite entanglements involving non-orthogonal states are {\it necessarily nonmaximally} entangled, however {\it small} the non-orthogonality may be. How the deviati…
Can Science `explain' Consciousness ?
M K Samal
Consciousness is the process by which one attributes `meaning' to the world. Considering Fllesdal's definition of `meaning' as the joint product of all `evidence' that is availa…
