On the Significance of Interferometric Revivals for the Fundamental Description of Gravity

Abstract

We show that an interaction between a harmonic oscillator and a two-level test mass (TLTM) mediated by an LOCC channel produces a signature that in [D. Carney et al., PRX Quantum 2, 030330 (2021)] is claimed to be exclusively reserved for channels that can transmit quantum information. We provide an explicit example based on a measurement-and-feedback channel, explain where the proof of Carney et al. fails, discuss to what degree setups of this type can test the nature of the gravitational interaction and remark on some fundamental implications that an LOCC model of gravity may have in black hole physics.
