Quantum oracles give an advantage for identifying classical counterfactuals

Ciarán M. Gilligan-Lee, Yìlè Yīng, Jonathan Richens +1

We show that quantum oracles provide an advantage over classical oracles for answering classical counterfactual questions in causal models, or equivalently, for identifying unknown…

Copenhagenish interpretations of quantum mechanics

David Schmid, Yìlè Yīng, Matthew Leifer

We define a class of Copenhagenish interpretations encompassing modern interpretations that follow the Copenhagen spirit. These interpretations are characterized by four postulates…

Entanglement certification using noncontextuality inequalities

Yujie Zhang, Jonah Spodek, David Schmid +5

By combining the assumptions of Bell locality with those of generalized noncontextuality, we define classes of noncontextuality inequalities for correlations arising in a bipartite…

On whether quantum theory needs complex numbers: the foil theories perspective

Yìlè Yīng, Maria Ciudad Alañón, Daniel Centeno +5

Recent work by Renou et al. (2021) has led to some controversy concerning the question of whether quantum theory requires complex numbers for its formulation. We promote the view t…

Quantifiers and witnesses for the nonclassicality of measurements and of states

Yujie Zhang, Yìlè Yīng, David Schmid

In recent work Phys. Rev. X 16, 021050, we proposed a unified notion of nonclassicality that applies to arbitrary processes in quantum theory, including individual quantum states,…

Reassessing the boundary between classical and nonclassical for individual quantum processes

Yujie Zhang, David Schmid, Yìlè Yīng +1

There is a received wisdom about where to draw the boundary between classical and nonclassical for various types of quantum processes. For multipartite states, it is the divide bet…
