Degree of entaglement as a physically ill-posted problem: The case of entaglement with vacuum
PublicationAnalizujemy przypadek fotonu w superpozycji różnych modów i zadajemy pytanie o stopień ich splątania z próżnią. Problem okazuje się być źle postawiony, gdyż nie wiemy którą reprezentację algebry CCR wybrać dla kwantowania pola. Gdy dokonamy wyboru jednoznacznie możemy rozwiązać zagadnienie splątania. Tak więc trudność nie leży w matematyce lecz w fizyce problemu.
