#### Action 1.1: Formalize Theorem Statement
|
|
135
|
+
```rust
|
|
136
|
+
Action {
|
|
137
|
+
name: "formalize_theorem",
|
|
138
|
+
preconditions: {},
|
|
139
|
+
effects: {
|
|
140
|
+
theorem_formalized: 1.0,
|
|
141
|
+
falsification_criteria_defined: true
|
|
142
|
+
},
|
|
143
|
+
tools: [latex_editor, reference_manager],
|
|
144
|
+
execution: ExecutionMode::LLM,
|
|
145
|
+
cost: 3,
|
|
146
|
+
duration: "3-5 days",
|
|
147
|
+
required_skills: [quantum_mechanics, mathematical_logic],
|
|
148
|
+
deliverable: "docs/quantum-goap/theorem_formal.tex"
|
|
149
|
+
}
|
|
150
|
+
```
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
**Implementation Steps**:
|
|
153
|
+
1. Convert informal statement to precise mathematical notation
|
|
154
|
+
2. Define all Hilbert spaces, operators, and POVMs
|
|
155
|
+
3. State assumptions explicitly (statistical independence, etc.)
|
|
156
|
+
4. Formalize both parts: observer-agnostic + no-retrocausal marginals
|
|
157
|
+
5. Peer review with quantum foundations expert
|
|
158
|
+
|
|
159
|
+
**Success Criteria**:
|
|
160
|
+
- All mathematical objects well-defined
|
|
161
|
+
- Assumptions stated and justified
|
|
162
|
+
- Falsification conditions explicit
|
|
163
|
+
- Zero ambiguous terms
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
#### Action 1.2: Verify Proof Sketch
|
|
166
|
+
```rust
|
|
167
|
+
Action {
|
|
168
|
+
name: "verify_proof",
|
|
169
|
+
preconditions: { theorem_formalized: 1.0 },
|
|
170
|
+
effects: { proof_verified: 1.0 },
|
|
171
|
+
tools: [proof_assistant_lean, mathematica],
|
|
172
|
+
execution: ExecutionMode::Hybrid,
|
|
173
|
+
cost: 4,
|
|
174
|
+
duration: "4-6 days",
|
|
175
|
+
required_skills: [quantum_information_theory, formal_methods]
|
|
176
|
+
}
|
|
177
|
+
```
|
|
178
|
+
|
|
179
|
+
**Implementation Steps**:
|
|
180
|
+
1. Expand proof sketch to full formal proof
|
|
181
|
+
2. Verify linearity arguments with trace identities
|
|
182
|
+
3. Check Born rule application correctness
|
|
183
|
+
4. Validate partial trace mathematics
|
|
184
|
+
5. Optional: Formalize in Lean theorem prover
|
|
185
|
+
|
|
186
|
+
**Success Criteria**:
|
|
187
|
+
- Each proof step follows from previous
|
|
188
|
+
- All invoked theorems cited (Born rule, linearity, etc.)
|
|
189
|
+
- No circular reasoning
|
|
190
|
+
- Peer-reviewed by 2+ quantum theorists
|
|
191
|
+
|
|
192
|
+
#### Action 1.3: Define Corollaries and Predictions
|
|
193
|
+
```rust
|
|
194
|
+
Action {
|
|
195
|
+
name: "define_predictions",
|
|
196
|
+
preconditions: { proof_verified: 1.0 },
|
|
197
|
+
effects: {
|
|
198
|
+
falsification_criteria_defined: true,
|
|
199
|
+
experimental_predictions_quantified: true
|
|
200
|
+
},
|
|
201
|
+
tools: [mathematical_modeling],
|
|
202
|
+
execution: ExecutionMode::LLM,
|
|
203
|
+
cost: 2,
|
|
204
|
+
duration: "2-3 days"
|
|
205
|
+
}
|
|
206
|
+
```
|
|
207
|
+
|
|
208
|
+
**Predictions to Quantify**:
|
|
209
|
+
1. Singles invariance: |Δp(y)| < 5×10⁻⁴ across all controllers
|
|
210
|
+
2. Duality bound: V² + D² ≤ 1.0 + 3σ (within measurement error)
|
|
211
|
+
3. Conditional fringes: Visibility = cos(φ) for eraser basis
|
|
212
|
+
4. No retro-signaling: Zero correlation between late choice μ and early singles

}
|
|
698
|
+
```
|
|
699
|
+
|
|
700
|
+
**Protocol Steps**:
|
|
701

}
|
|
733
|
+
```
|
|
734
|
+
|
|
735
|
+
**Analysis Framework**:
|
|
736
|
+
|
|
737
|
+
**Primary Hypothesis Test**:
|
|
738
|
+
- **H₀**: p(y|λ, human) = p(y|λ, RNG) = p(y|λ, timer) for all y, λ
|
|
739
|
+
- **H₁**: ∃ y, λ such that controller type affects p(y|λ)
|
|
740
|
+
|
|
741
|
+
**Test Statistic**:
|
|
742
|
+
```
|
|
743
|
+
χ² = Σ_y [(O_human,y - E_y)² + (O_RNG,y - E_y)² + (O_timer,y - E_y)²] / E_y
|
|
744
|
+
```
|
|
745
|
+
Under H₀: χ² ~ χ²(df=4) distribution
|
|
746
|
+
|
|
747
|
+
**Equivalence Testing**:
|
|
748
|
+
Two one-sided tests (TOST) for equivalence within ε = 5×10⁻⁴:
|
|
749
|
+
- Test 1: p_diff < ε (upper bound)
|
|
750
|
+
- Test 2: p_diff > -ε (lower bound)
|
|
751
|
+
|
|
752
|
+
**Power Analysis**:
|
|
753
|
+
```
|
|
754
|
+
Effect size: Δ = 1×10⁻³ (detectable consciousness effect)
|
|
755
|
+
Alpha: 0.01 (Bonferroni corrected for multiple tests)
|
|
756
|
+
Power: 0.90
|
|
757
|
+
Required events per controller: N ≈ 5×10⁶
|
|
758
|
+
```
|
|
759
|
+
|
|
760
|
+
**Multiple Comparisons Correction**:
|
|
761
|
+
- Bonferroni: α_corrected = 0.01 / k (k = number of tests)
|
|
762
|
+
- False Discovery Rate (FDR) control: Benjamini-Hochberg procedure

**Unblinding Ceremony**:
|
|
1163
|
+
1. Verify all pre-registered analyses are coded
|
|
1164
|
+
2. Confirm no peeking at blinded labels
|
|
1165
|
+
3. Run analysis on scrambled labels first (expect null)
|
|
1166
|
+
4. Decrypt label permutation in presence of witnesses
|
|
1167
|
+
5. Re-run analysis on true labels
|
|
1168
|
+
6. Document any deviations from pre-registration

**Analysis Pipeline**:
|
|
1185
|
+
|
|
1186
|
+
**1. Data Preprocessing**:
|
|
1187
|
+
```python
|
|
1188
|
+
def preprocess(raw_data):
|
|
1189
|
+
# Remove events during known disturbances
|
|
1190

1195
|

# Bin into coincidence windows
|
|
1196
|
+
coincidences = find_coincidences(corrected, window=1ns)
|
|
1197
|
+
|
|
1198
|
+
# Compute singles and conditionals
|
|
1199
|
+
singles = compute_marginals(coincidences)
|
|
1200
|
+
conditionals = compute_conditionals(coincidences)
|
|
1201
|
+
|
|
1202
|
+
return singles, conditionals, coincidences
|
|
1203
|
+
```
|
|
1204
|
+
|
|
1205
|
+
**2. Primary Test** (Observer-agnostic invariance):
|
|
1206
|
+
```python
|
|
1207
|
+
def test_observer_invariance(singles):
|
|
1208
|
+
# Singles by controller
|
|
1209
|
+
p_human = singles['human']
|
|
1210
|
+
p_RNG = singles['RNG']
|
|
1211
|
+
p_timer = singles['timer']
|
|
1212
|
+
|
|
1213
|
+
# Chi-squared test
|
|
1214
|
+
contingency_table = [p_human, p_RNG, p_timer]
|
|
1215
|
+
chi2, p_value = scipy.stats.chi2_contingency(contingency_table)
|
|
1216
|
+
|
|
1217
|
+
# Equivalence test (TOST)
|
|
1218
|
+
equiv_upper = test_equivalence(p_human, p_RNG, epsilon=5e-4, side='upper')
|
|
1219
|
+
equiv_lower = test_equivalence(p_human, p_RNG, epsilon=5e-4, side='lower')
|
|
1220
|
+
equivalence = equiv_upper.passed and equiv_lower.passed
|
|
1221
|
+
|
|
1222
|
+
return {
|
|
1223
|

'chi2': chi2,
|

1224
|

|
|
1226
|
+
'equivalence': equivalence
|
|
1227
|
+
}
|
|
1228
|
+
```
|
|
1229
|
+
|
|
1230
|
+
**3. Secondary Test** (No-retrocausal marginals):
|
|
1231
|
+
```python
|
|
1232
|
+
def test_no_retrocausality(singles, conditionals):
|
|
1233
|
+
# Singles should not depend on later choice of basis
|
|
1234
|
+
singles_given_WP = marginalize(conditionals['WhichPath'])
|
|
1235
|
+
singles_given_Eraser = marginalize(conditionals['Eraser'])
|
|
1236
|
+
|
|
1237
|
+
diff = abs(singles_given_WP - singles_given_Eraser)
|
|
1238
|
+
|
|
1239
|
+
# Should be zero within statistical error
|
|
1240
|
+
sigma = sqrt(singles_given_WP * (1 - singles_given_WP) / N)
|
|
1241
|
+
z_score = diff / sigma
|
|
1242
|
+
|
|
1243
|
+
return z_score < 3 # 3σ threshold
|
|
1244
|
+
```
|
|
1245
|
+
|
|
1246
|
+
**4. Duality Bound Check**:
|
|
1247
|
+
```python
|
|
1248
|
+
def check_duality(conditionals):
|
|
1249
|
+
V = compute_visibility(conditionals['Eraser'])
|
|
1250
|
+
D = compute_distinguishability(conditionals['WhichPath'])
|
|
1251
|
+
|
|
1252
|
+
bound = V**2 + D**2
|
|
1253
|
+
uncertainty = propagate_errors(V, D)
|
|
1254
|
+
|
|
1255
|
+
violated = bound > 1.0 + 3*uncertainty
|
|
1256
|
+
|
|
1257
|
+
return {'bound': bound, 'violated': violated}
|
|
1258
|
+
```
|
|
1259
|
+
|
|
1260
|
+
**5. Systematic Checks**:
|
|
1261
|
+
- Correlation with environmental variables
|
|
1262
|
+
- Time-of-day effects
|
|
1263
|
+
- Order effects (early vs late runs)
|
|
1264
|
+
- Detector efficiency drifts

\title{Testing Observer-Agnostic Measurement: A Delayed-Choice Quantum Eraser with Human, Algorithmic, and Hardware Controllers}
|
|
1339
|

|
+
\abstract{
|
|
1341
|
+
We test whether the identity of a measurement apparatus---specifically, whether controlled by a human, random number generator, or deterministic timer---affects quantum measurement outcomes. Using a delayed-choice quantum eraser with entangled photon pairs, we measure single-particle detection statistics while varying the controller type. Quantum mechanics predicts these statistics are observer-agnostic. We collect 15×10⁶ events in a pre-registered, blinded protocol and find [RESULT]. Our results [support/refute] the hypothesis that consciousness plays a causal role in quantum measurement, with equivalence bounds of Δp < 5×10⁻⁴.

### 3.2 Critical Path Analysis
|
|
1579
|
+
|
|
1580
|
+
**Critical Path** (longest dependency chain):
|
|
1581
|
+
```
|
|
1582
|
+
[1.1] Formalize → [1.2] Verify → [1.3] Predictions → [5.1] Design Apparatus
|
|
1583
|
+
→ [5.4] Pre-registration → [6.1] Funding → [6.2] Procure → [6.3] Build
|
|
1584
|
+
→ [6.4] Calibrate → [7.2] Data Collection → [8.2] Analysis → [9.1] Paper
|
|
1585
|
+
|
|
1586
|
+
Total Duration: 12-16 weeks (theory) + 16-24 weeks (experiment) = 28-40 weeks
|
|
1587
|
+
```
|
|
1588
|
+
|
|
1589
|
+
**Parallelizable Clusters**:
|
|
1590
|
+
- **Cluster A** (Weeks 2-4): Simulation development (Actions 2.2-2.5)
|
|
1591
|
+
- **Cluster B** (Weeks 3-5): Test development (Actions 3.1-3.3)
|
|
1592
|
+
- **Cluster C** (Weeks 6-8): Experimental design (Actions 5.1-5.4)
|
|
1593
|
+
|
|
1594
|
+
**Bottlenecks**:
|
|
1595
|
+
1. **Funding** (Action 6.1): Can take 3-6 months, highly variable
|
|
1596
|
+
2. **Hardware procurement** (Action 6.2): 4-8 weeks, supply chain risk
|
|
1597
|
+
3. **Data collection** (Action 7.2): 2-3 weeks, cannot be accelerated

### 7.2 Detailed Mitigation Strategies
|
|
1820
|
+
|
|
1821
|
+
#### Risk 1: Funding Not Secured
|
|
1822
|
+
**Scenario**: Grant applications rejected or delayed
|
|
1823
|
+
**Probability**: 40%
|
|
1824
|
+
**Impact**: Cannot proceed past simulation phase
|
|
1825
|
+
|
|
1826
|
+
**Mitigation Plan**:
|
|
1827
|
+
1. **Diversify applications**: Apply to NSF, DOE, private foundations (FQXi, Templeton)
|
|
1828
|
+
2. **Phase funding**: Seek pilot funding for simulation + design (lower barrier)
|
|
1829
|
+
3. **Crowdfunding**: Kickstarter/GoFundMe with strong outreach campaign
|
|
1830
|
+
4. **Equipment sharing**: Partner with existing quantum optics lab
|
|
1831
|
+
5. **Student project**: Frame as PhD thesis to leverage university support
|
|
1832
|
+
|
|
1833
|
+
**Contingency**: If unfunded, publish simulation + theoretical work, seek experimental collaborators
|
|
1834
|
+
|
|
1835
|
+
#### Risk 2: Hardware Lead Times
|
|
1836
|
+
**Scenario**: SPDC crystal or time-tagger takes 12+ weeks to deliver
|
|
1837
|
+
**Probability**: 30%
|
|
1838
|
+
**Impact**: Project delayed by 2-3 months
|
|
1839
|
+
|
|
1840
|
+
**Mitigation Plan**:
|
|
1841
|
+
1. **Early procurement**: Order critical items immediately after funding
|
|
1842
|
+
2. **Backup vendors**: Identify alternate suppliers (e.g., SPDC: Raicol, Covesion, HC Photonics)
|
|
1843
|
+
3. **Rental options**: Rent time-tagger initially (Swabian offers this)
|
|
1844
|
+
4. **Alternative designs**: Have photonic chip design as backup (though less flexible)
|
|
1845
|
+
|
|
1846
|
+
**Contingency**: Use interim cheaper components for alignment practice, then upgrade
|
|
1847
|
+
|
|
1848
|
+
#### Risk 3: Apparatus Won't Align
|
|
1849
|
+
**Scenario**: Cannot achieve required visibility or entanglement quality
|
|
1850
|
+
**Probability**: 20%
|
|
1851
|
+
**Impact**: Experiment infeasible or has large systematics
|
|
1852
|
+
|
|
1853
|
+
**Mitigation Plan**:
|
|
1854
|
+
1. **Hire expert**: Budget for postdoc with quantum optics experience
|
|
1855
|
+
2. **Collaboration**: Partner with lab that has working SPDC source
|
|
1856
|
+
3. **Simpler design**: Fall back to Mach-Zehnder with single photons (no entanglement)
|
|
1857
|
+
4. **Extended calibration**: Allocate 4 weeks instead of 2 for alignment
|
|
1858
|
+
5. **Active stabilization**: Invest in PID-controlled feedback for phase lock
|
|
1859
|
+
|
|
1860
|
+
**Contingency**: If entanglement unattainable, run single-photon delayed-choice (Kim et al. design)
|
|
1861
|
+
|
|
1862
|
+
#### Risk 4: Data Shows Systematics
|
|
1863
|
+
**Scenario**: Singles vary with time-of-day, temperature, or other non-controller variable
|
|
1864
|
+
**Probability**: 25%
|
|
1865
|
+
**Impact**: Cannot definitively attribute any effect (or lack thereof) to controllers
|
|
1866
|
+
|
|
1867
|
+
**Mitigation Plan**:
|
|
1868
|
+
1. **Environmental control**: Temperature-stabilized enclosure (±0.1°C)
|
|
1869
|
+
2. **Extensive logging**: Record 20+ environmental variables at 1 Hz
|
|
1870
|
+
3. **Randomization**: Randomize controller order, not just label
|
|
1871
|
+
4. **Pilot study**: Identify systematics early in small dataset
|
|
1872
|
+
5. **Positive controls**: Measure known effects to validate sensitivity
|
|
1873
|
+
|
|
1874
|
+
**Contingency**: If systematics found, correct in software or redesign apparatus
|
|
1875
|
+
|
|
1876
|
+
#### Risk 5: Insufficient Statistical Power
|
|
1877
|
+
**Scenario**: 5×10⁶ events not enough to detect or rule out small effects
|
|
1878
|
+
**Probability**: 15%
|
|
1879
|
+
**Impact**: Inconclusive result, need to extend data collection
|
|
1880
|
+
|
|
1881
|
+
**Mitigation Plan**:
|
|
1882
|
+
1. **Power analysis**: Done upfront with conservative assumptions
|
|
1883
|
+
2. **Optimize count rate**: Maximize brightness and detection efficiency
|
|
1884
|
+
3. **Sequential testing**: Monitor power as data accumulates, extend if needed
|
|
1885
|
+
4. **Collaboration**: Pool data with other groups doing similar experiments
|
|
1886
|
+
|
|
1887
|
+
**Contingency**: Report results with wider confidence intervals, call for multi-lab effort

|
+
|
|
1926

|
|
1936
|
+
### 8.2 Speedup Potential
|
|
1937
|
+
|
|
1938
|
+
**Sequential execution time**: 40 weeks
|
|
1939
|
+
**With optimal parallelization**: 28 weeks
|
|
1940
|
+
**Speedup**: 1.43×
|
|
1941
|
+
|
|
1942
|
+
**Limiting factors**:
|
|
1943
|
+
- Critical path (funding → procurement → build → collect) cannot be parallelized
|
|
1944
|
+
- Some actions have strict sequential dependencies
|
|
1945
|
+
- Resource constraints (finite lab space, personnel)
|
|
1946
|
+
|
|
1947
|
+
**Maximum theoretical speedup**:
|
|
1948
|
+
If unlimited resources and instant funding: ~20 weeks (2× speedup)

### 10.3 Replanning Triggers
|
|
2100
|

2103
|
+
IF test_coverage < 0.90 OR any_critical_test_fails:
|
|
2104
|
+
REPLAN:
|
|
2105
|
+
- Pause Phase 4 (Experimental Design)
|
|
2106
|
+
- Insert debugging actions
|
|
2107
|
+
- Re-run tests until pass
|
|
2108
|
+
- Resume original plan
|
|
2109
|
+
```
|
|
2110
|
+
|
|
2111
|
+
**Trigger 2: Funding Denied**
|
|
2112
|

- Skip Phase 5-7 (Experimental)
|
|
2116
|
+
- Publish simulation-only paper

+
```
|

2123
|
+
IF optical_table_aligned = false AFTER 4_weeks:
|
|
2124
|
+
REPLAN:
|
|
2125
|
+
- Hire expert consultant (insert new action)
|
|
2126
|
+

|
|
2127

|
+
IF H0_rejected = true AND effect_size > 5σ:
|
|
2133

|
2134
|
+
- Immediate replication run (insert)

|
|
2136
|
+
- Bring in independent auditors (insert)

## 12. Conclusion & Next Steps
|
|
2243
|
+
|
|
2244
|
+
### 12.1 Summary
|
|
2245
|
+
|
|
2246
|
+
This GOAP analysis provides a complete, executable plan for implementing the Observer-Agnostic Measurement research project. The plan is:
|
|
2247
|
+
|
|
2248
|
+
✅ **Falsifiable**: Clear success/failure criteria
|
|
2249
|
+
✅ **Modular**: 47 atomic actions with explicit dependencies
|
|
2250
|
+
✅ **Parallelizable**: 23 actions can run concurrently (1.43× speedup)
|
|
2251
|
+
✅ **Resource-Aware**: Detailed budgets, timelines, skill requirements
|
|
2252
|
+
✅ **Adaptive**: Replanning triggers for common failure modes
|
|
2253
|
+
✅ **Reproducible**: All code, data, and protocols open-sourced
|
|
2254
|
+
|
|
2255
|
+

### 12.3 Expected Outcomes
|
|
2313
|
+
|
|
2314
|
+
**Best Case** (6-9 months):

|
|
2316
|
+
- Funding secured quickly (Weeks 6-10)
|
|
2317
|
+
- Experiment runs smoothly (Weeks 11-20)
|
|
2318
|
+
- Null result published with tight bounds in PRL (Weeks 21-28)
|
|
2319
|
+
- **Impact**: Definitive test showing consciousness does NOT affect QM
|
|
2320
|
+
|
|
2321
|
+
**Worst Case** (2-3 years):
|
|
2322
|
+
- Funding delayed 6+ months
|
|
2323
|
+
- Apparatus alignment challenges (add 2-3 months)
|
|
2324
|
+
- Unexpected systematics require redesign (add 3-6 months)
|
|
2325
|
+
- Result still publishable but with less impact
|
|
2326
|
+
|
|
2327
|
+
**Revolutionary Case** (if violation found):
|
|
2328
|
+
- Immediate replication runs
|
|
2329
|
+
- Intensive independent verification
|
|
2330
|
+
- Publication in Nature/Science
|
|
2331
|
+
- **Impact**: New physics discovered, paradigm shift in quantum foundations

2337
|
+
| Action | Cost | Justification |
|
|
2338
|
+
|--------|------|---------------|
|
|
2339
|
+
| 1.1 Formalize | 3 | Moderate complexity, well-defined task |
|
|
2340
|
+
| 1.2 Verify Proof | 4 | Requires careful logic, possible formal verification |
|
|
2341
|
+
| 2.2 Math Module | 5 | Significant coding + testing |
|
|
2342
|
+
| 2.3 Eraser Module | 6 | Most complex simulation component |
|
|
2343
|
+
| 5.1 Design Apparatus | 8 | Requires optical expertise + CAD work |
|
|
2344
|
+
| 6.1 Secure Funding | 10 | Time-consuming, uncertain outcome |
|
|
2345
|
+
| 7.2 Full Data Collection | 12 | Longest single action, cannot be accelerated |
|
|
2346
|
+
|
|
2347
|
+
**Cost Scale**:
|
|
2348
|
+
- 1-2: Trivial (< 4 hours)
|

## Appendix B: Alternative Experimental Designs
|
|
2356
|
+
|
|
2357
|
+
If photonic DCQE proves too challenging:
|
|
2358
|
+
|
|
2359
|
+
**Alternative 1: Mach-Zehnder with Single Photons**
|
|
2360
|
+
- Simpler: No entanglement required
|
|
2361
|
+
- Weaker: Tests only duality, not retrocausality
|
|
2362
|
+
- Faster: 4-6 week build instead of 8-12
|
|
2363
|
+
|
|
2364
|
+
**Alternative 2: Electron Double-Slit**
|
|
2365
|
+
- Different modality: Matter waves instead of photons
|
|
2366
|
+
- Advantage: Existing apparatus at many universities
|
|
2367
|
+
- Disadvantage: Lower count rates, harder controller integration
|
|
2368
|
+
|
|
2369
|
+
**Alternative 3: Photonic Integrated Circuit**
|
|
2370
|
+
- Modern: Chip-based interferometry
|
|
2371
|
+
- Advantage: Highly stable, automated
|
|
2372
|
+
- Disadvantage: Less flexible, higher upfront cost
