HM Wiseman - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
Many of the heated arguments about the meaning of'Bellʼs theorem'arise because this
phrase can refer to two different theorems that John Bell proved, the first in 1964 and the …

Quantum causal modelling

F Costa, S Shrapnel - New Journal of Physics, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Causal modelling provides a powerful set of tools for identifying causal structure from
observed correlations. It is well known that such techniques fail for quantum systems, unless …

Quantum common causes and quantum causal models

JMA Allen, J Barrett, DC Horsman, CM Lee… - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
Reichenbach's principle asserts that if two observed variables are found to be correlated,
then there should be a causal explanation of these correlations. Furthermore, if the …

Theory-independent limits on correlations from generalized Bayesian networks

J Henson, R Lal, MF Pusey - New Journal of Physics, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
Bayesian networks provide a powerful tool for reasoning about probabilistic causation, used
in many areas of science. They are, however, intrinsically classical. In particular, Bayesian …

Quantum causal models

J Barrett, R Lorenz, O Oreshkov - arxiv preprint arxiv:1906.10726, 2019 - arxiv.org
It is known that the classical framework of causal models is not general enough to allow for
causal reasoning about quantum systems. While the framework has been generalized in a …

The simplest causal inequalities and their violation

C Branciard, M Araújo, A Feix, F Costa… - New Journal of …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
In a scenario where two parties share, act on and exchange some physical resource, the
assumption that the parties' actions are ordered according to a definite causal structure …

Quantum inflation: A general approach to quantum causal compatibility

E Wolfe, A Pozas-Kerstjens, M Grinberg, D Rosset… - Physical Review X, 2021 - APS
Causality is a seminal concept in science: Any research discipline, from sociology and
medicine to physics and chemistry, aims at understanding the causes that could explain the …

Polynomial bell inequalities

R Chaves - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
It is a recent realization that many of the concepts and tools of causal discovery in machine
learning are highly relevant to problems in quantum information, in particular quantum …

Experimental nonclassicality in a causal network without assuming freedom of choice

E Polino, D Poderini, G Rodari, I Agresti… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
In a Bell experiment, it is natural to seek a causal account of correlations wherein only a
common cause acts on the outcomes. For this causal structure, Bell inequality violations can …

The quantum theory of time, the block universe, and human experience

JA Vaccaro - … Transactions of the Royal Society A …, 2018 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Advances in our understanding of the physical universe have dramatically affected how we
view ourselves. Right at the core of all modern thinking about the universe is the assumption …
