Zitterbewegung and a formulation for quantum mechanics

Published Feb 8, 2020• 0 citations

Abstract

In this short note, we try to show that inside a vortex like region, like a black hole one cane observe superluminosity which yields some interesting results. Also, we consider the zitterbewegung fluctuations to obtain an interpretation of quantum mechanics.

A possible way for getting the information out of a black hole

Rui Qi

We try to solve the problem about how to probe the inside of a black hole. We show that in the framework of revised quantum dynamics, which may naturally result from the combination of quantum mechanics and general relativity, the information inside a black hole can be gotten out in principle when using the conscious being as quantum measuring device.

Controlled Hawking process by quantum energy teleportation

Masahiro Hotta

In this paper, a new quantum mechanical method to extract energy from black holes with contracting horizons is proposed. The method is based on a gedanken experiment on quantum energy teleportation, which has been recently proposed in quantum information theory. We consider this quantum energy teleportation protocol for $N$ massless fields in near-horizon regions of large-mass black holes with near-horizon geometry described by the Minkowski metric. For each field, a two-level spin is strongly coupled with the local quantum fluctuation outside the horizon during a short time period. After the measurement of $N$ fields, $N$-bit information is obtained. During the measurement, positive-energy wave packets of the fields form and then fall into the black hole. The amount of excitation energy is independent of the measurement result. After absorption of the wave packets and increase of the black-hole mass, a measurement-result-dependent local operation of the $N$ fields is performed outside the horizon. Then, accompanying the extraction of positive energy from the quantum fluctuation by the operation, negative-energy wave packets of the fields form and then fall into the black hole, decreasing the black-hole mass. This implies that a part of the absorbed positive energy emitted from the measurement devices is effectively retrieved from the black hole via the measurement results.

Macroscopic superpositions and black hole unitarity

Stephen D. H. Hsu

We discuss the black hole information problem, including the recent claim that unitarity requires a horizon firewall, emphasizing the role of decoherence and macroscopic superpositions. We consider the formation and evaporation of a large black hole as a quantum amplitude, and note that during intermediate stages (e.g., after the Page time), the amplitude is a superposition of macroscopically distinct (and decohered) spacetimes, with the black hole itself in different positions on different branches. Small but semiclassical observers (who are themselves part of the quantum amplitude) that fall into the hole on one branch will miss it entirely on other branches and instead reach future infinity. This observation can reconcile the subjective experience of an infalling observer with unitarity. We also discuss implications for the nice slice formulation of the information problem, and to complementarity.
