Interference is Controlled by Prediction

Interference phenomena are commonly understood as consequences of path indistinguishability and coherence constrained by the availability of which-path information. While delayed-choice and quantum eraser experiments have demonstrated that interference can be restored or suppressed depending on measurement context, such effects are typically implemented through discrete, externally imposed experimental configurations. In this work, propose a delayed-choice interferometric scheme in which interference visibility is regulated adaptively via predictive estimates of informational accessibility. The proposed architecture introduces an operational measure of predictability derived from ensemble-level intensity…
