Example: Carrier-only history dependence from a classical register
Bounded classical storage is not classical environmental memory › Classical hidden memory can pass a causal-break test · lines 1638–1657
Psy04-A@1#ex:classicalmemory
Let a persistent hidden classical bit be uniform. Initialize a visible qubit in . Apply , measure in the basis, and record . Then reset the carrier to the same , independently of . Apply the same sector-controlled and measure again.
Both first histories have probability , and
The carrier input after the reset is identical in both histories. The retained history dependence is entirely classical, stored in .
