Funded Activity Summary
Foundations and applications of quantum causality. This project aims to investigate the nature of causality in the quantum world. With special-purpose quantum devices on the horizon, the need for novel quantum protocols is of urgent technological and economic significance. Using interdisciplinary methodologies, this project will explore the hypothesis that quantum advantage is associated to a fundamental need for fine-tuning in classical simulations of quintessentially quantum phenomena. Expected outcomes include a resource theory of fine-tuning providing a physical picture to guide quantum technologies, new fundamental tests of nonclassicality, and significant theoretical and philosophical advances in our understanding of the nature of quantum reality and causality.Funded Activity Details
