论文摘要
我们表明，在量子理论的数学框架中，经典的鸽洞原理可以比以前建议的更直接地违反，即在接近传统原则陈述的环境中。我们描述了如何在鸽子对环境中留下的微小足迹的分析中进行操作的反事实推理。在确定了最近实验的量子孔效应的弊端之后，我们认为仍然需要确切的实验违反对鸽子孔原理的行为，并提出使用现代量子计算硬件的实施：具有Transmon Qubit的超导电路。
We show that in the mathematical framework of the quantum theory the classical pigeonhole principle can be violated more directly than previously suggested, i.e., in a setting closer to the traditional statement of the principle. We describe how the counterfactual reasoning of the paradox may be operationally grounded in the analysis of the tiny footprints left in the environment by the pigeons. After identifying the drawbacks of recent experiments of the quantum pigeonhole effect, we argue that a definitive experimental violation of the pigeonhole principle is still needed and propose such an implementation using modern quantum computing hardware: a superconducting circuit with transmon qubits.
