Abstract

This talk investigates whether localized quantities can describe quantum circuits while respecting spacetime covariance. Evidence suggests that weak values form a tensor for each qubit whose local dynamics are unaffected by distant operations even in entangled states. Because both initial and final constraints matter, the description is determined across the whole circuit at once. The presentation discusses how that perspective relates to Bell constraints and possible underlying spacetime descriptions.
