S Battaglia, P Servajean, KJ Friston - Physics of Life Reviews, 2025 - Elsevier
The paradox of a brain trying to study itself presents a conundrum, raising questions about
self-reference, consciousness, psychiatric disorders, and the boundaries of scientific inquiry …

A general framework for consistent logical reasoning in Wigner's friend scenarios: subjective perspectives of agents within a single quantum circuit

V Vilasini, MP Woods - arxiv, 2022 - research-collection.ethz.ch
It is natural to expect a complete physical theory to have the ability to consistently model
agents as physical systems of the theory. In [Nat. Comms. 9, 3711 (2018)], Frauchiger and …
