Reality Is Too Complex For Any Cosmic Computer Simulation, Study Suggests
How do we know we’re not living in a computer simulation? Is it even possible to tell? For…
Does gravity produce quantum weirdness? Proposal divides physicists
Physicists are questioning whether gravity can produce quantum entanglement between two masses.Credit: David Parker/Science Photo Library The nature…
Entanglement theory with limited computational resources
We now aim to determine the fundamental limits and possibilities of computationally efficient entanglement manipulation. Here the goal…

6 Times Einstein Missed the Mark, but Still Changed Physics
Albert Einstein is undeniably one of the greatest names in physics. But Einstein, for all his contributions to…
Chaos controlled and disorder driven phase transitions induced by breaking permutation symmetry
Solvable case of \(p=0\), generic initial coherent states It is both instructive and interesting to first examine the…
Researchers Claim First ‘Unconditional Proof’ of Quantum Advantage. What Happens Next?
Quantum computers are already here, even though it’s not readily apparent. Now, researchers say quantum advantage—the field’s long-promised…
Spatiotemporal dynamics of moiré excitons in van der Waals heterostructures
Microscopic model We study the spatiotemporal moiré exciton dynamics in a twisted TMD heterostructure in the low excitation…
Unifying gravity and quantum theory requires better understanding of time
Quantum mechanics is our most successful physical theory. Created to account for atomic phenomena, it has a vast…
Entanglement and the density matrix renormalization group in the generalized Landau paradigm
Dualities We explain here how to obtain the models dual to equation (1) considered in the main text.…
Exact collective occupancies of the Moshinsky model in two-dimensional geometry
We consider a system of N bosons in a two-dimensional isotropic harmonic potential, interacting with a force proportional…
