Funded Activity Summary

Novel aspects and applications of quantum measurement theory. The first aim is to develop further a novel formalism for quantum measurement theory based on retrodiction (rather than prediction). The second is to apply this theory to non-Markovian systems (in which the measurement is smeared-out in time). The third is to combine quantum measurement theory with natural selection better to understand the appearance of the everyday world. The expected outcomes include a deeper understanding of quantum physics and the establishment of new techniques for analysing problems in quantum communication and quantum-limited technologies. These advances are significant both fundamentally and, at the dawn of the quantum information age, in practice.
