    Comment on "Information flow of quantum states interacting with closed timelike curves"

    Full text link
    We show that recent results on the interaction of causality-respecting particles with particles on closed timelike curves derived in [Phys. Rev. A 82, 062330 (2010)] depend on ambiguous assumption about the form of the state which is inputted into the proposed equivalent circuit. Choosing different form of this state leads to opposite conclusion on the power of closed timelike curves

    From contextuality of a single photon to realism of an electromagnetic wave

    Violations of Bell inequalities have been an incontestable indicator of non-classicality since the seminal paper by John Bell. However, recent claims of Bell inequalities violations with classical light have cast some doubts on their significance as hallmarks of non-classicality. Here, we challenge those claims. The crux of the problem is that such classical experiments simulate quantum probabilities with intensities of classical fields. However, fields intensities measurements are radically different from single-photon detections, which are primitives of any genuine Bell experiment. We show that this fundamental difference between field intensities measurements and single photon detections shifts the classical bound of relevant Bell inequalities to its algebraic limit, leaving no place for their violations.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure

    Galilean invariance without superluminal particles

    Recently Dragan and Ekert [New. J. Phys 22, 033038, 2020] presented arguments that probabilistic dynamics inherent in the realm of quantum physics is related to the propagation of superluminal particles. Moreover they argue that existence of such particles is a natural consequence of the principle of relativity. We show that the proposed extension of Lorentz transformation can be interpreted in natural way without invoking superluminal phenomena.Comment: 4 page
