Abstract

Preregistration and materials for a simulation study of what holds the quantum Darwinism record's onset in place in a central-spin model: generator-class substitution tests of the pair-flip coupling bank's onset role, on fresh configurations.

What carries the quantum Darwinism record texture’s robustness to spin-flip coupling strength? Edge-level interventions on the flip couplings in a central-spin model

Tristen Pierson

Preregistered simulation study. An earlier study in this series found the redundant record plateau in a central-spin model robust to rescaling the spin-flip coupling amplitudes, but that sweep preserved the coupling graph. This study discriminates three candidate carriers of the robustness — the specific coupling pattern, the coupling graph’s connectivity alone, or generic mixing strength — by interventions that delete, reduce, permute, or remove flip couplings at matched total strength.

Spec 013 - Eigenbasis carrier of timeless QD records: simulation preregistration

Tristen Pierson

Preregistration of a simulation study: does the timeless quantum-Darwinism record texture of a central-spin model depend on the energy eigenbasis at exactly fixed spectrum? The Hamiltonian is conjugated by environment-only on-site unitaries (spectrum preserved, eigenbasis rotated) and paired texture statistics are compared under frozen verdict criteria. Protocol and code hash-pinned at freeze before the campaign; this registration precedes all campaign computation.
