An Invitation to Quantum Game Theory [PDF]
Recent development in quantum computation and quantum information theory allows to extend the scope of game theory for the quantum world. The paper presents the history, basic ideas and recent development in quantum game theory.

Formalism and Interpretation in Quantum Theory [PDF]
, 2008 Quantum Mechanics can be viewed as a linear dynamical theory having a familiar mathematical framework but a mysterious probabilistic interpretation, or as a probabilistic theory having a familiar interpretation but a mysterious formal framework.

The Everett Interpretation [PDF]
, 2011 The Everett interpretation of quantum mechanics - better known as the Many-Worlds Theory - has had a rather uneven reception. Mainstream philosophers have scarcely heard of it, save as science fiction.

Multi-photon entanglement and applications in quantum information [PDF]
, 2008 Since the awareness of entanglement was raised by Einstein, Podolski, Rosen and Schrödinger in the beginning of the last century, it took almost 55 years until entanglement entered the laboratories as a new resource.

On Time in Quantum Physics [PDF]
, 2012 First, I briefly review the different conceptions of time held by three rival interpretations of quantum theory: the collapse of the wave-packet, the pilot-wave interpretation, and the Everett interpretation (Section 2).

Quantum algorithms for testing and learning Boolean functions
, 2013 We discuss quantum algorithms based on the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm for finding which input variables a Boolean function depends on. There are 2(n) possible linear Boolean functions of n input variables; given a linear Boolean function, the Bernstein-

Bohr’s quantum postulate and time in quantum mechanics [PDF]
, 2010 In this paper I shall consider the concept of time used in the quantum theory from the perspective of Bohr’s ideas as presented in what he called the quantum postulate and some of its consequences.

Extending Quantum Error Correction: New Continuous Measurement Protocols and Improved Fault-Tolerant Overhead [PDF]
, 2004 Quantum mechanical applications range from quantum computers to quantum key distribution to teleportation. In these applications, quantum error correction is extremely important for protecting quantum states against decoherence.

Quantum Probability and Decision Theory, Revisited
, 2002 An extended analysis is given of the program, originally suggested by Deutsch, of solving the probability problem in the Everett interpretation by means of decision theory.

Discussion: Time-Symmetric Quantum Counterfactuals [PDF]
, 2003 There is a trend to consider counterfactuals as invariably time-asymmetric. Recently, this trend manifested itself in the controversy about validity of counterfactual application of a time-symmetric quantum probability rule.
