1//! Entanglement-Based Temporal Correlation Validators
2//!
3//! This module implements validation of quantum entanglement preservation
4//! across temporal consciousness operations, ensuring that quantum correlations
5//! necessary for distributed consciousness are maintained.
6//!
7//! ## Quantum Entanglement in Consciousness
8//!
9//! Quantum entanglement may play a role in consciousness through:
10//! 1. **Temporal Correlations**: Past-future quantum correlations
11//! 2. **Spatial Correlations**: Distributed consciousness components
12//! 3. **Information Integration**: Non-local information processing
13//! 4. **Coherent Superposition**: Quantum superposition of conscious states
14//!
15//! ## Entanglement Measures
16//!
17//! - **Concurrence**: Measure of two-qubit entanglement
18//! - **Entanglement Entropy**: von Neumann entropy measure
19//! - **Negativity**: Positive partial transpose criterion
20//! - **Bell Inequality**: CHSH inequality violation
