• Authors: Thao P. Le, Piotr Mironowicz, Pawe{\l} Horodecki
• Abstract summary: We take the formalism of [Giacomini, Castro-Ruiz, & Brukner, Nat 10, 494] and consider the repercussions on objectivity when changing quantum reference frames. There is different objective information in different reference frames due to the interchangeability of entanglement and coherence, and of statistical mixing and classical correlations.

• Abstract: Quantum Darwinism describes objectivity of quantum systems via their correlations with their environment--information that hypothetical observers can recover by measuring the environments. However, observations are done with respect to a frame of reference. Here, we take the formalism of [Giacomini, Castro-Ruiz, & Brukner. Nat Commun 10, 494 (2019)], and consider the repercussions on objectivity when changing quantum reference frames. We find that objectivity depends on non-degenerative relative separations, conditional state localisation, and environment macro-fractions. There is different objective information in different reference frames due to the interchangeability of entanglement and coherence, and of statistical mixing and classical correlations. As such, objectivity is subjective across quantum reference frames.

• Observation of Quantum Darwinism and the Origin of Classicality with Superconducting Circuits [9.09683951826704]
  How can we rationalize everyday classical observations from an inherently quantum world? Quantum Darwinism offers a compelling framework to explain this emergence of classicality. We observe the highly structured branching quantum states that support classicality and the saturation of quantum mutual information.

  We investigate the perspective-dependence of position and momentum uncertainties, correlations, covariance matrices, and entanglement within the quantum reference frames formalism. We show that the Robertson-Schr"odinger uncertainty relations are frame-dependent, and so are correlations and variances, which satisfy various constraints described as inequalities. These invariants suggest fundamental, robust measures of uncertainty and entanglement that persist despite changes in observational perspective.

• How do we Observe Relational Observables? [0.0]
  How do relational observables actually make contact with experience? I argue that this question can only be answered by providing a schematization of the observer. I consider what this means for the prospects of using quantum reference frames to address the problem of time.

• Witnessing the non-objectivity of an unknown quantum dynamics [0.6745502291821955]
  We show that objectivity implies a Bell-like inequality. Observers probing distinct parts of the environment can agree upon their measurement outcome of a given observable. But such outcome can be totally uncorrelated from the property of the quantum system that fixed observable should be probing.

• The meaning of redundancy and consensus in quantum objectivity [0.0]
  "Redundancy" and "consensus" should be understood as two related notions, that quantify different features of the quantum-to-classical transition. We show that the two main frameworks used to measure quantum objectivity, namely spectrum broadcast structure and quantum Darwinism, are best suited to quantify redundancy and consensus.

• Quantum indistinguishability through exchangeable desirable gambles [69.62715388742298]
  Two particles are identical if all their intrinsic properties, such as spin and charge, are the same. Quantum mechanics is seen as a normative and algorithmic theory guiding an agent to assess her subjective beliefs represented as (coherent) sets of gambles. We show how sets of exchangeable observables (gambles) may be updated after a measurement and discuss the issue of defining entanglement for indistinguishable particle systems.

This approach can lay the foundations of identifying originators of malicious activity on future multi-node quantum networks.

• Decoherence and information encoding in quantum reference frames [0.0]
  In most situations, e.g. in laboratories, physical processes are described within reference frames constituted by physical systems. One of its consequences is the fact that quantum correlations depend on a physical state of an observers reference frame. I discuss implications of this results for modern developments of decoherence theory: Quantum Darwinism and Spectrum Broadcast Structures.

• Quantum Mechanical description of Bell's experiment assumes Locality [91.3755431537592]
  Bell's experiment description assumes the (Quantum Mechanics-language equivalent of the classical) condition of Locality. This result is complementary to a recently published one demonstrating that non-Locality is necessary to describe said experiment. It is concluded that, within the framework of Quantum Mechanics, there is absolutely no reason to believe in the existence of non-Local effects.
