Two interferometric complementarities
Abstract
Two interferometric complementarities are formulated and demonstrated, and relations between them are analyzed. The first relates the distinguishability D(scrP) of the path of propagation of a particle (where scrP is the preparation of an ensemble) to the fringe visibility ${\mathit{v}}_{1}$ when amplitudes from two paths are combined. It is shown that [maxD(scrP)${]}^{2}$+${\mathit{v}}_{1}^{2}$=1, where the maximum is taken over all preparations compatible with a fixed density operator. The second complementarity relates the visibility of one-particle interference fringes to the visibility ${\mathit{v}}_{12}$ of two-particle fringes: ${\mathit{v}}_{12}^{2}$+${\mathit{v}}_{1}^{2}$\ensuremath{\le}1. With a suitable extension of operations on the pair of particles, this inequality is strengthened to an equality.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
