Discerning “indistinguishable” quantum systems
In a series of recent papers, Simon Saunders, Fred Muller and Michael Seevinck have collectively argued, against the folklore, that some non-trivial version of Leibniz’s principle of the identity of indiscernibles is upheld in quantum mechanics. They argue that all particles—fermions, paraparticles, anyons, even bosons—may be weakly discerned by some physical relation. Here I show that their ar...
متن کاملQuantum Correlations in Systems of Indistinguishable Particles
We discuss quantum correlations in systems of indistinguishable particles in relation to entanglement in composite quantum systems consisting of well separated subsystems. Our studies are motivated by recent experiments and theoretical investigations on quantum dots and neutral atoms in microtraps as tools for quantum information processing. We present analogies between distinguishable particle...
متن کاملLOCC indistinguishable orthogonal product quantum states
We construct two families of orthogonal product quantum states that cannot be exactly distinguished by local operation and classical communication (LOCC) in the quantum system of (2k+i) ⊗ (2l+j) (i, j ∈ {0, 1} and i ≥ j ) and (3k+i) ⊗ (3l+j) (i, j ∈ {0, 1, 2}). And we also give the tiling structure of these two families of quantum product states where the quantum states are unextendible in the ...
متن کاملIndistinguishable particles in quantum mechanics: an introduction
In this article, we discuss the identity and indistinguishability of quantum systems and the consequent need to introduce an extra postulate in Quantum Mechanics to correctly describe situations involving indistinguishable particles. This is, for electrons, the Pauli Exclusion Principle, or in general, the Symmetrization Postulate. Then, we introduce fermions and bosons and the distributions re...
متن کاملOn Input Indistinguishable Proof Systems
We study Input Indistinguishable Computation (IIC), a security notion proposed by Micali, Pass, and Rosen in [14] and recently considered also by Garg, Goyal, Jain and Sahai in [9]. IIC aims at generalizing the notion of a Witness Indistinguishable (WI) proof system to general two-party functionalities and in its concurrent version (cIIC) also considers security against man-in-the-middle (MiM) ...
