2 Contents (1) Introduc8on: meaning of causality What is indefinite causality and why do we care? (2) The W- matrix framework: allowed and forbidden terms Infinite dimensions: problems and (3) The quantum switch: a causally nonseparable system (4) Summary and Conclusions
3 Causally- ordered framework Future Opera8onally Causality as possibility of signaling C Elsewhere O Signaling as sta@s@cal correla@ons between two variables of two par@es Past
4 Causally- ordered framework Elsewhere Future O Past C Opera8onally Causality as possibility of signaling One direc@onal signaling: from O to from to O separated No signaling from O to C > spacelike separated N..: always verified in typical laboratory situa@ons
5 Indefiniteness of causality No global structure Quantum tools to formulate physical theories on indefinite causal structures g µ? C We want to preserve: O Linearity No logical paradoxes

Yes re these processes physical? (Open ques@on) O. Oreshkov, F. Costa,and Č. rukner, Nat.Comm. 3, (2012)
10 Fixed background assump8ons (1) Closed laboratories: and can receive and send a signal, but their laboratories are isolated from the rest of the world between these two events; (2) Free choice: the secngs of the local observers are only correlated with events in their causal future; (3) Causal structure: the main events are located in a causal structure, i.e. a par@al order which defined the possible direc@ons of the signaling.

It is possible to violate the causal inequality!

Sum over outcomes is also trace- preserving (CPTP) X Tr 2 Mi = 1 1 i O. Oreshkov, F.

The formalism can be fully generalised to infinite- dimensional Hilbert spaces.

26 Open ques8ons Conclusions (1) The W- matrix framework can describe more general than those allowed by standard Quantum Mechanics and avoids logical paradoxes (2) The set of allowed W contains: processes which violate the causal inequality: physical? causally nonseparable processes which can be experimentally implemented (the quantum switch) causally separable and causally ordered processes (3) The framework can be fully generalised to infinite- dimensional Hilbert spaces. (1) Which W- matrices describe processes in which the indefiniteness of causal structure is due to gravita@onal interac@on? (2) Can we formulate Quantum Fields on indefinite causal structure?
