We work in quantum mechanics and its foundations: the measurement problem, the meaning of the wave function, entaglement and nonlocality, the quantum-to-classical transition, the relation between quantum theory and relativity/gravity.

- Fast and Error-Correctable Quantum RAMby Francesco Cesa on March 24, 2025 at 9:51 pm
Quantum devices can process data in a fundamentally different way than classical computers. To leverage this potential, many algorithms require the aid of a quantum Random Access Memory (QRAM), i.e. […]
- The Unequal Costs of Pollution: Carbon Tax, Inequality, and
Redistributionby Cristiano Cantore on February 28, 2025 at 7:38 pm
This paper studies how household heterogeneity affects the level and cyclical behavior of the optimal carbon tax in a real economy. We demonstrate that an equity-efficiency trade-off arises due to […]
- Theoretical Limits of Protocols for Distinguishing Different Unravelingsby J. L. Gaona-Reyes on February 26, 2025 at 4:24 pm
The evolution of an open quantum system is often described by a master equation, which governs the dynamics of the statistical operator. The dynamics of a master equation can be expressed as an […]
- Hybrid Classical-Quantum Newtonian Gravity with stable vacuumby Nicolò Piccione on February 7, 2025 at 3:19 pm
We investigate the Gravitational Poissonian Spontaneous Localization (GPSL) model, a hybrid classical-quantum model in which classical Newtonian gravity emerges from stochastic collapses of the mass […]
- Hierarchical generation and design of quantum codes for
resource-efficient loss-tolerant quantum communicationsby Francesco Cesa on January 30, 2025 at 7:00 pm
We develop novel protocols for generating loss-tolerant quantum codes; these are central for safeguarding information against qubit losses, with most crucial applications in quantum communications. […]
