两种昆虫的量子合作

Quantum Cooperation of Two Insects

Johann Summhammer

摘要:

量子纠缠的物理概念被引入到生物学领域。我们通过假设两种昆虫共享大量的量子纠缠自旋1/2粒子来模拟它们的合作。它们中的每一个都对这些粒子进行测量,以决定是否执行某些动作。在第一个例子中,两只蚂蚁必须推一个鹅卵石,这对一只蚂蚁来说可能太重了。在第二个例子中,两个遥远的蝴蝶必须找到对方。在这两个例子中,个体在气味引导下随机选择可能的方向,然后做出是推/飞还是等待的量子决定。有了量子纠缠,两只蚂蚁可以把鹅卵石推到独立蚂蚁的两倍远,而两只蝴蝶可能只需要独立蝴蝶飞行路线的一半就能找到对方。

英文摘要:

The physical concept of quantum entanglement is brought to the biological domain. We simulate the cooperation of two insects by hypothesizing that they share a large number of quantum entangled spin-1/2 particles. Each of them makes measurements on these particles to decide whether to execute certain actions. In the first example, two ants must push a pebble, which may be too heavy for one ant. In the second example, two distant butterflies must find each other. In both examples the individuals make odour-guided random choices of possible directions, followed by a quantum decision whether to push/fly or to wait. With quantum entanglement the two ants can push the pebble up to twice as far as independent ants, and the two butterflies may need as little as half of the flight path of independent butterflies to find each other.
