Abstract

Abstract This repository contains Python source code (using Qiskit) demonstrating the "Operational Irreversibility" in chaotic quantum systems under strict relativistic constraints. Key Experiments: The Rolling Shutter Effect: Simulates a deterministic chaotic system where the reversal operator is subjected to a signal propagation delay (Lieb-Robinson bound). It demonstrates a sharp phase transition from recoverability (F=1.0) to thermalization (F=0.5) when the signal lag exceeds the scrambling time. Precise Scaling Verification: Verifies the proposed "Omega" criterion ($\Omega = \lambda L / c$). The data shows a universal collapse at $\Omega = 1$ across different system sizes (L=6, L=12), confirming the geometric necessity of information loss due to causal horizons. Usage: Run the scripts to reproduce the phase transition plots. Requires qiskit, qiskit-aer, and matplotlib.
