Tests of Quantum Gravity-Induced Non-Locality: Hamiltonian formulation of a non-local harmonic oscillator
Alessio Belenchia, Dionigi M. T. Benincasa, Francesco Marin +4
Motivated by the development of on-going optomechanical experiments aimed at constraining non-local effects inspired by some quantum gravity scenarios, the Hamiltonian formulation…
On the Entanglement Entropy of Quantum Fields in Causal Sets
Alessio Belenchia, Dionigi M. T. Benincasa, Marco Letizia +1
In order to understand the detailed mechanism by which a fundamental discreteness can provide a finite entanglement entropy, we consider the entanglement entropy of two classes of…
Transmission of Information in Non-Local Field Theories
Alessio Belenchia, Dionigi M. T. Benincasa, Stefano Liberati +1
The signaling between two observers in 3+1 dimensional flat spacetime coupled locally to a non-local field is considered. We show that in the case where two observers are purely ti…
Tests of Quantum Gravity-Induced Non-Locality via Opto-mechanical Experiments
Alessio Belenchia, Dionigi M. T. Benincasa, Stefano Liberati +3
The nonrelativistic limit of nonlocal modifications to the Klein Gordon operator is studied, and the experimental possibilities of casting stringent constraints on the nonlocality…
Low energy signatures of nonlocal field theories
Alessio Belenchia, Dionigi M. T. Benincasa, Eduardo Martin-Martinez +1
The response of inertial particle detectors coupled to a scalar field satisfying nonlocal dynamics described by nonanalytic functions of the d'Alembertian operator is studie…
Tests of Quantum Gravity induced non-locality via opto-mechanical quantum oscillators
Alessio Belenchia, Dionigi M. T. Benincasa, Stefano Liberati +3
Several quantum gravity scenarios lead to physics below the Planck scale characterised by nonlocal, Lorentz invariant equations of motion. We show that such non-local effective fie…
