Non-local quantum evolution of entangled ensemble states in neural nets and its significance for brain function and a theory of consciousness
June 2, 1999 E. Bieberich
A theoretical model proposes that quantum coherence in a single neuron can generate a configuration space of entangled states serving as a global workspace for conscious experience. The model describes adjusting quantum computation to classical signals from action potentials, with Darwinian selection among neurons producing phase-locked oscillations of harmonic or fractal periodicity. This process integrates signal inputs into a memory space independent of its construction history, with implications for associative memory, creativity, and consciousness.
