Developments in Wave-Particle Duality - Quantum Mechanics and Coherence Theory

Explore a 46-minute colloquium lecture from the Centre for Quantum Technologies where Professor Mark Hillery of Hunter College delves into recent developments in wave-particle duality, a cornerstone principle of quantum mechanics. Learn how modern resource theory of quantum coherence provides novel methods for quantifying wave behavior, leading to new duality relations with operational significance. Discover how these quantum mechanical principles can be understood through game theory frameworks, and examine the fundamental limitations on extracting combined wave and particle information through various measurement techniques. Gain insights into how these duality relations formalize and quantify the constraints between wave and particle behaviors in quantum systems.
