journal club on aspects of information, quantum theory, and gravity
15 Feb 2024
The boundary between Quantum Theory and General Relativity has been an ubiquitous discussion in the physics community since the earliest days of these models. Finding a consistent way to combine them is one of the greatest quests in contemporary physics, and recent quantum-informational approaches are playing an important role to understand how we should describe the symbiosis between these theories [1,2]. In this seminar I intend to give a brief overview of why it’s interesting to employ Quantum Foundations techniques to approach the non-classical nature of gravity, and, in particular, to emphasize the use of Generalized Probabilistic Theories as strong apparatus to extract no-go theorems regarding classicality, entanglement, and (if time permits) reversibility.
