Confinement and spatial entanglement: phenomenology of a new interference principle

Abstract

Recently, the novel confinement principle in spatially-structured Lorentzian wells was reported to describe in a unified way the interference of classical waves and singular quantum particles in a causal framework in ordinary space. The phenomenology derived from this principle offers significant advantages over the conventional classical and quantum formalisms of interference founded on wave superposition. This paper presents a conceptual analysis of such a principle and its main implications indicating its fundamental differences from the standard descriptions.
