Quantum entanglement, indistinguishability, and the absent-minded driver's problem

arXiv:quant-ph/0502136 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2005.01.033

Abstract

The absent-minded driver's problem illustrates that probabilistic strategies can give higher pay-offs than deterministic ones. We show that there are strategies using quantum entangled states that give even higher pay-offs, both for the original problem and for the generalized version with an arbitrary number of intersections and any possible set of pay-offs.
