Quantumness, Randomness and Computability

Aldo Solis, Jorge G Hirsch · Journal of Physics Conference Series · 2015

Randomness plays a central role in the quantum mechanical description of our interactions. We review the relationship between the violation of Bell inequalities, non signaling and randomness. We discuss the challenge in defining a random string, and show that algorithmic information theory provides a necessary condition for randomness using Borel normality. We close with a view on incomputablity and its implications in physics.
