- Abstract: The procedure of tossing quantum coins and dice is described. This case is an
important example of a quantum procedure because it presents a typical
framework employed in quantum information processing and quantum computing. The
emphasis is on the clarification of the difference between quantum and
classical conditional probabilities. These probabilities are designed for
characterizing different systems, either quantum or classical, and they,
generally, cannot be reduced to each other. Thus the L\"{u}ders probability
cannot be treated as a generalization of the classical conditional probability.
The analogies between quantum theory of measurements and quantum decision
theory are elucidated.

The standard quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator has an exact, dual relationship with a completely classical system.
One finds that, where the classical system always obeys the rule "probability in = probability out", the same probabilities are quantum probabilities in the quantum system.

A test of quantumness is a protocol that allows a classical verifier to certify (only) that a prover is not classical.
We show that tests of quantumness that follow a certain template, which captures recent proposals such as (Kalai et al., 2022) can in fact do much more.
Namely, the same protocols can be used for certifying a qubit, a building-block that stands at the heart of applications such as certifiable randomness and classical delegation of quantum computation.

This paper demonstrates that some non-classical models of human decision-making can be run successfully as circuits on quantum computers.
The claim is not that the human brain uses qubits and quantum circuits explicitly, but that the mathematics shared between quantum cognition and quantum computing motivates the exploration of quantum computers for cognition modeling.

We introduce a formulation of quantum theory (QT) as a general probabilistic theory but expressed via quasi-expectation operators (QEOs)
We will show that QT for both distinguishable and indistinguishable particles can be formulated in this way.
We will show that finitely exchangeable probabilities for a classical dice are as weird as QT.

A proof of quantumness is a type of challenge-response protocol in which a classical verifier can efficiently certify quantum advantage of an untrusted prover.
In this paper, we give two proof of quantumness constructions in which the prover need only perform constant-depth quantum circuits.

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.

In quantum logic, it is possible to assign dispersion-free probabilities to experimental propositions pertaining to qubits.
This makes qubits distinct from the rest of quantum systems since the latter do not admit probabilities having only values 0 and 1.
The present paper shows that erasing qubit discrimination leads to a model of computation which permits execution of many primitive operations in a massive parallel way.
