Remote predictability of quantum measurement outcomes

Chirag Srivastava, Aparajita Bhattacharyya, Sheikh Parvez Mandal +2

Predicting quantum measurement outcomes for a local observer makes sense before, but not after, the measurement. However, for a remote observer, predicting measurement outcomes eve…
