Kochen-specker contextuality
A central result in the foundations of quantum mechanics is the Kochen-Specker theorem. In
short, it states that quantum mechanics is in conflict with classical models in which the result …

Is the quantum state real? An extended review of -ontology theorems
MS Leifer - arxiv preprint arxiv:1409.1570, 2014 - arxiv.org
Towards the end of 2011, Pusey, Barrett and Rudolph derived a theorem that aimed to show
that the quantum state must be ontic (a state of reality) in a broad class of realist approaches …

Classification and reconstruction of optical quantum states with deep neural networks
We apply deep-neural-network-based techniques to quantum state classification and
reconstruction. Our methods demonstrate high classification accuracies and reconstruction …

Is a time symmetric interpretation of quantum theory possible without retrocausality?
Huw Price has proposed an argument that suggests a time symmetric ontology for quantum
theory must necessarily be retrocausal, ie it must involve influences that travel backwards in …

Coherence and contextuality in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer
We analyse nonclassical resources in interference phenomena using generalized
noncontextuality inequalities and basis-independent coherence witnesses. We use recently …

Contextual advantages and certification for maximum-confidence discrimination
One of the most fundamental results in quantum information theory is that no measurement
can perfectly discriminate between nonorthogonal quantum states. In this work, we …

Hidden variable model for universal quantum computation with magic states on qubits
We show that every quantum computation can be described by a probabilistic update of a
probability distribution on a finite phase space. Negativity in a quasiprobability function is not …
