By reinterpreting the foundational works of Erwin Schrödinge r and Howard L. Resnikoff from a quantum information perspective\, this fr amework naturally reconciles trichromacy with Hering’s opponency theory\ , and provides precise definitions of key color attributes such as brightn ess\, saturation\, and hue. Moreover\, the theory has genuine predictive p ower: it allows for a quantitative explanation of known perceptual phenome na and leads to new predictions\, including the existence of uncertainty r elations for chromatic opponency. Finally\, the model directly yields an e fficient white balance algorithm.\n\nBio:\nEdoardo Provenzi received the L aurea degree (equivalent to an M.S.) in Theoretical Physics from Universit à degli Studi di Milano in 2000\, and the Ph.D. degree in Mathematics and Applications from Università degli Studi di Genova in 2004. His doctoral research focused on quantum gravity. He held postdoctoral positions at Un iversità di Milano\, Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona\, and Téléco m ParisTech.
