If everything came from the same singularity prior to the Big Bang, are we still entangled? If yes could we retrieve information of the whole Universe from one single particle? If not when and how were we de-entangled?

AlSo said:ZZ, isn't there only one system from one singularity?

This is a philosophical issue and this approach in particular raises a few eyebrows in these quarters. I'd repeat what i stated earlier - the belief that everything is entangled leads to the inescapable conclusion that naive realism is false, and since all known science is based on naive realism, it's just a small logical step towards the counter-intuive conclusion. See here:Maui, if the human mind is to participate, at which level (reception, analysis or response)?

See here:
"The realist view is that objects are composed of matter, occupy space and have properties, such as size, shape, texture, smell, taste and colour, that are usually perceived correctly. We perceive them as they really are. Objects obey the laws of physics and retain all their properties whether or not there is anyone to observe them.[1]"

bhobba said:Come again. First I have heard of that. Decoherence for example leads to the conclusion the state of the system after measurement depends on what you are measuring - as does bog standard QM and the Kochen Specker theroem - but it gives a mechanism for it. The quantum system gets entangled with the observational apparatus so the final state depends on that apparatus in complete opposition to naive realism.
Maui said:You might have misunderstood the context in which i used "it's just a small logical step towards the counter-intuive conclusion"... which should have ended in "that naive realism is wrong" but i thought it was obvious from my previous posts in this thread. This has implications for the Newtonian worldview utilized by virtually all fields of science - from medicine and biology to geography and history.
Entanglement is a quantum mechanical phenomenon where two or more particles become connected in such a way that the state of one particle can affect the state of the other, even when they are separated by large distances.
Entanglement occurs when two or more particles are created or interact in such a way that their quantum states become correlated. This can happen through various processes, such as particle decay or electromagnetic interactions.
The Big Bang is considered the beginning of our universe, and understanding the role of entanglement in this event can give us insight into the fundamental nature of our universe and its origins.
Scientists use various methods, such as particle accelerators, to recreate the conditions of the early universe and study the behavior of particles and their entanglement. They also use mathematical models and simulations to understand the dynamics of entanglement after the Big Bang.
Understanding entanglement after the Big Bang can have practical applications in quantum computing and communication, as well as in furthering our understanding of the fundamental laws of physics. It can also provide insights into the behavior of matter and energy in extreme conditions, such as those present in the early universe.
