Causal Networks and Freedom of Choice in Bell's Theorem
Bell's theorem is typically understood as the proof that quantum theory is incompatible with local-hidden-variable models. More generally, we can see the violation of a Bell inequality as witnessing the impossibility of explaining quantum correlations with classical causal models. The violation of a Bell inequality, however, does not exclude classical models where some level of measurement dependence is allowed, that is, the choice made by observers can be correlated with the source generating the systems to be measured. Here, we show that the level of measurement dependence can be quantitatively upper bounded if we arrange the Bell test within a network. Furthermore, we also prove that these results can be adapted in order to derive nonlinear Bell inequalities for a large class of causal networks and to identify quantumly realizable correlations that violate them.

Beyond Bell's Theorem II: Scenarios with arbitrary causal structure
It has recently been found that Bell scenarios are only a small subclass of interesting setups for studying the non-classical features of quantum theory within spacetime. We find that it is possible to talk about classic…
Causal InferenceQuantum Entanglement as Super-Confounding: From Bell's Theorem to Robust Machine Learning
Bell's theorem reveals a profound conflict between quantum mechanics and local realism, a conflict we reinterpret through the modern lens of causal inference. We propose and computationally validate a framework where qua…
Quantum Machine LearningCausal InferenceA unifying framework for relaxations of the causal assumptions in Bell's theorem
Bell's Theorem shows that quantum mechanical correlations can violate the constraints that the causal structure of certain experiments impose on any classical explanation. It is thus natural to ask to which degree the ca…
Isabelle Formalisation of Original Representation Theorems
In a recent paper, new theorems linking apparently unrelated mathematical objects (event structures from concurrency theory and full graphs arising in computational biology) were discovered by cross-site data mining on h…
The Predictive-Causal Gap: An Impossibility Theorem and Large-Scale Neural Evidence
We report a systematic failure mode in predictive representation learning. Across 2695 neural network configurations trained to predict linear-Gaussian dynamics, the optimal encoder tracks the environment rather than the…
