No-signaling-in-time condition for three-flavor neutrino oscillations
Massimo Blasone, Fabrizio Illuminati, Luciano Petruzziello +2
Macrorealism is a fundamental concept in quantum foundations, capturing basic features of our everyday experience. Among the main tools introduced to test violations of macrorealis…
Relativistic Gravity-Induced Entanglement via Frame Dragging
Eyuri Wakakuwa, Luciano Petruzziello, Trinidad B. Lantaño +2
Gravity-induced entanglement has been proposed as a method for testing the non-classical nature of gravity via tabletop experiments. While most existing proposals are restricted to…
A post-Newtonian Gravitational Collapse Model from Linearized Gravity
Rudi B. P. Pietsch, Luciano Petruzziello, Martin B. Plenio
We introduce a general gravity-related collapse mechanism based on linearized gravity. Starting from the weak-field limit of general relativity, gravitoelectromagnetism suggests an…
Decay of uniformly rotating particles
Luciano Petruzziello, Martin B. Plenio
In this paper, we revisit the interpretation of the circular Unruh effect. To this aim, we rely on the principle of general covariance applied to the decay properties of non-inerti…
Angular Momentum Entanglement Mediated By General Relativistic Frame Dragging
Trinidad B. Lantaño, Luciano Petruzziello, Susana F. Huelga +1
Current proposals to probe the quantum nature of gravity in the low-energy regime predominantly focus on the Newtonian interaction term. In this work, we present a theoretical expl…
Spin couplings as witnesses of Planck scale phenomenology
Pasquale Bosso, Fabrizio Illuminati, Luciano Petruzziello +1
Modified dispersion relations (MDRs) and noncommutative geometries are phenomenological models of Planck-scale corrections to relativistic kinematics, motivated by several approach…
Tests of macrorealism in meson oscillation physics
Massimo Blasone, Fabrizio Illuminati, Luciano Petruzziello +2
Macrorealism formalizes the intuitive notion that at any given time the system occupies a definite state and that the evolution of the system is independent of the measurements per…
White Paper and Roadmap for Quantum Gravity Phenomenology in the Multi-Messenger Era
R. Alves Batista, G. Amelino-Camelia, D. Boncioli +101
The unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity has long been elusive. Only recently have empirical predictions of various possible theories of quantum gravity been put…
Coherent states for generalized uncertainty relations as Tsallis probability amplitudes: new route to non-extensive thermostatistics
Petr Jizba, Gaetano Lambiase, Giuseppe Gaetano Luciano +1
We study coherent states associated to a generalized uncertainty principle (GUP). We separately analyze the cases of positive and negative deformation parameter , showing that t…
Neutrino decoherence and violation of the strong equivalence principle
Luca Buoninfante, Giuseppe Gaetano Luciano, Luciano Petruzziello +1
We analyze the dynamics of neutrino Gaussian wave-packets, the damping of flavor oscillations and decoherence effects within the framework of extended theories of gravity. In parti…
Bell nonlocality in maximal-length quantum mechanics
Pasquale Bosso, Fabrizio Illuminati, Luciano Petruzziello +1
In this paper, we investigate the consequences of maximal length as well as minimal momentum scales on nonlocal correlations shared by two parties of a bipartite quantum system. To…
Weak equivalence principle violation for mixed scalar particles
Massimo Blasone, Petr Jizba, Gaetano Lambiase +1
We investigate the non-relativistic limit of the Klein--Gordon equation for mixed scalar particles and show that, in this regime, one unavoidably arrives at redefining the particle…
30 years in: Quo vadis generalized uncertainty principle?
Pasquale Bosso, Giuseppe Gaetano Luciano, Luciano Petruzziello +1
According to a number of arguments in quantum gravity, both model-dependent and model-independent, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is modified when approaching the Planck scale.…
Gravitationally modulated quantum correlations: Discriminating classical and quantum models of ultra-compact objects with Bell nonlocality
Luciano Petruzziello, Fabrizio Illuminati
We investigate the relation between quantum nonlocality and gravity at the astrophysical scale, both in the classical and quantum regimes. Considering particle pairs orbiting in th…
The minimal length: a cut-off in disguise?
Pasquale Bosso, Luciano Petruzziello, Fabian Wagner
The minimal-length paradigm, a possible implication of quantum gravity at low energies, is commonly understood as a phenomenological modification of Heisenberg's uncertainty relati…
No-signaling-in-time as a condition for macrorealism: the case of neutrino oscillations
Massimo Blasone, Fabrizio Illuminati, Luciano Petruzziello +2
We consider two necessary and sufficient conditions for macrorealism recently appeared in the literature, known as no-signaling-in-time and arrow-of-time conditions, respectively,…
Spin operator, Bell nonlocality and Tsirelson bound in quantum-gravity induced minimal-length quantum mechanics
Pasquale Bosso, Luciano Petruzziello, Fabian Wagner +1
Different approaches to quantum gravity converge in predicting the existence of a minimal scale of length. This raises the fundamental question as to whether and how an intrinsic l…

We explore the interplay between the equivalence principle and a generalization of the Heisenberg uncertainty relations known as extended uncertainty principle, that comprises the…
Decoherence limit of quantum systems obeying generalized uncertainty principle: new paradigm for Tsallis thermostatistics
Petr Jizba, Gaetano Lambiase, Giuseppe Gaetano Luciano +1
The generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) is a phenomenological model whose purpose is to account for a minimal length scale (e.g., Planck scale or characteristic inverse-mass sc…
