Deutschian closed timelike curves can create entanglement
Abstract
We study the nature of entanglement in presence of Deutschian closed timelike curves (D-CTCs) and we observe that qubits traveling along a D-CTC allow unambiguous discrimination of Bell states with Local Operations and Classical Communications (LOCC), that is otherwise known to be impossible. A consequence of this leads us to discover that localized D-CTCs can create entanglement, using just local operations and classical communication. This contradicts the fundamental definition of entanglement.
