Abstract summary: We argue that correlation is a resource that is consumed when measurements take place. It is also argued that a network of such measurements establishes a stable objective classical reality.

Abstract: We explore quantum measurement in the context of Everettian unitary quantum mechanics and construct an explicit unitary measurement procedure. We propose the existence of prior correlated states that enable this procedure to work and therefore argue that correlation is a resource that is consumed when measurements take place. It is also argued that a network of such measurements establishes a stable objective classical reality.

Enhanced Entanglement in the Measurement-Altered Quantum Ising Chain [46.99825956909532]
Local quantum measurements do not simply disentangle degrees of freedom, but may actually strengthen the entanglement in the system. This paper explores how a finite density of local measurement modifies a given state's entanglement structure.

Relational superposition measurements with a material quantum ruler [2.912552849396905]
We introduce a model to describe an extended material quantum system working as a position measurement device. We show that we can define a quantum measurement procedure corresponding to the "superposition of positions" The model is fully relational, because the only meaningful variables are the relative positions between the ruler and the system.

Quantifying measurement-induced quantum-to-classical crossover using an open-system entanglement measure [49.1574468325115]
We study the entanglement of a single particle under continuous measurements. We find that the entanglement at intermediate time scales shows the same qualitative behavior as a function of the measurement strength.

Measurement in a Unitary World [0.0]
This article explores how measurement can be understood in the context of a universe evolving according to unitary (reversible) quantum dynamics. A unitary measurement procedure is developed consistent with the non-measurements of quantum mechanics wherein the system being measured and the observer become correlated.

Entanglement quasidistributions for Bell-state measurements [0.0]
We explore the notion of entanglement for detection devices in theory and experiment. A method is devised that allows one to determine nonlocal quantum coherence of positive operator-valued measures. We describe the reconstruction of the aforementioned entanglement quasidistributions from raw data and compare the resulting negativities with the expected from theory.

Anticipative measurements in hybrid quantum-classical computation [68.8204255655161]
We present an approach where the quantum computation is supplemented by a classical result. Taking advantage of its anticipation also leads to a new type of quantum measurements, which we call anticipative. In an anticipative quantum measurement the combination of the results from classical and quantum computations happens only in the end.

Entanglement quantification from collective measurements processed by machine learning [0.0]
Instead of analytical formulae, we employ artificial neural networks to predict the amount of entanglement in a quantum state. For the purpose of our research, we consider general two-qubit states and their negativity as entanglement quantifier.

Finite resolution ancilla-assisted measurements of quantum work distributions [77.34726150561087]
We consider an ancilla-assisted protocol measuring the work done on a quantum system driven by a time-dependent Hamiltonian. We consider system Hamiltonians which both commute and do not commute at different times, finding corrections to fluctuation relations like the Jarzynski equality and the Crooks relation.

We aim to shed some light on the quantum-to-classical transition as seen through the analysis of uncertainty relations. We employ entropic uncertainty relations to show that it is only by the inclusion of imprecision in our model of macroscopic measurements that we can prepare a system with two simultaneously well-defined quantities.

We introduce a collective measurement scheme for estimating the amount of coherence in quantum states. Our scheme outperforms other estimation methods based on tomography or adaptive measurements. We show that our method is accessible with today's technology by implementing it experimentally with photons.
