Testing for global computational constraints in quantum systems — RBQD framework (preprint + experimental protocol)

I’ve developed a testable framework examining whether quantum systems might exhibit load-dependent behavior when aggregate experimental complexity approaches fundamental limits. The preprint (v3.1) is now on OSF. Core idea: Resource-Bound Quantum Dynamics (RBQD) proposes that open-system quantum evolution may show measurable deviations when the combined “computational load” of multiple simultaneous experiments becomes high — loosely analogous to how holographic bounds limit information in spacetime regions. Key features: • Adds a load-dependent Lindblad term to the standard master equation • Load parameter: lambda = C / R_max (complexity / holographic bound) • Standard QM recovered at low lambda • Predicts correlated decoherence behavior across independent labs at high lambda • Fully falsifiable using synchronized multi-lab experiments Current status: • Ran preliminary tests on IBM Quantum (n=3, 5, 7 circuits) • Results match standard QM — expected at low load • Full limitations + scaling analysis included • Framework is Lindblad-consistent and no-signaling safe Preprint: https://osf.io/hv7d3 DOI: 10.17605/OSF.IO/HV7D3 Transparency: I’m an independent researcher without formal physics training. I used AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude) for formalization and structure. Concept, motivation, and experimental direction are my own. All limitations are documented in Section 9. My question for this community: Is the proposed multi-lab protocol feasible? If so, what platforms or configurations could practically attempt it? Even a null result would place useful bounds on potential global-load effects. Feedback, critique, and literature pointers welcome. submitted by /u/UncleSaucer [link] [comments]
