Local vertical measurements and violation of the Bell inequality

Abstract

For two qubits belonging to Alice and Bob, we derive an approach to set up the bound of the Bell operator in the condition that Alice and Bob continue to perform local vertical measurements. For pure states we find that if the entanglement of the two qubits is less than 0.2644 (measured with von Neumann entropy) the violation of the Bell inequality will never be realized, and only when the entanglement is equal to 1 can the maximal violation $(2\sqrt{2})$ occur. For a specific form of mixed states, we prove that the bound of the Bell inequality depends on the concurrence. Only when the concurrence is greater than 0.6 can the violation of the Bell inequality occur and the maximal violation can never be achieved. We suggest that the bound of the Bell operator in the condition of local vertical measurements may be used as a measure of the entanglement.

Maximal Violation of Bell Inequality for Any Given Two-Qubit Pure State

Yang Xiang

In the case of bipartite two-qubit systems, we derive an analytical expression of bound Bell operator for any given pure state. Our result not only manifests some properties of Bell inequality, for example, which may be violated by any pure entangled state and only be maximally violated for a maximally entangled state, but also gives the explicit values of maximal violation for any pure state. Finally we point out that any mixed states which can produce maximal violation of Bell inequality must have a maximal concurrence value.

Bell’s inequality and entanglement in qubits

Po-Yao Chang, Su-Kuan Chu, Chen‐Te Ma

We propose an alternative evaluation of quantum entanglement by measuring the maximum violation of the Bell’s inequality without information of the reduced density matrix of a system. This proposal is demonstrated by bridging the maximum violation of the Bell’s inequality and a concurrence of a pure state in an n-qubit system, in which one subsystem only contains one qubit and the state is a linear combination of two product states. We apply this relation to the ground states of four qubits in the Wen-Plaquette model and show that they are maximally entangled. A topological entanglement entropy of the Wen-Plaquette model could be obtained by relating the upper bound of the maximum violation of the Bell’s inequality to the generalized concurrence of a pure state with respect to different bipartitions.

Quantifying Bell nonlocality of a pure two-qudit state via its entanglement

Elena R. Loubenets, Sergey Kuznetsov, Louis Hanotel

Abstract For the maximal violation of all Bell inequalities by an arbitrary pure two-qudit state of any dimension, we derive a new lower bound expressed via the concurrence of this pure state. This new lower bound and the upper bound on the maximal Bell violation, found in Loubenets and Namkung (2022 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 55 285301) and also expressed via the concurrence, analytically quantify Bell nonlocality of a pure two-qudit state via its entanglement, in particular, prove explicitly that entanglement of a pure two-qudit state is necessary and sufficient for its Bell nonlocality. By re-visiting the pure two-qubit case, we also find and rigorously prove the new results on correlation properties of an arbitrary pure two-qubit state.

Relation between entanglement measures and Bell inequalities for three qubits

Clive Emary, C. W. J. Beenakker

For two qubits in a pure state there exists a one-to-one relation between the entanglement measure (the concurrence $\mathcal{C}$) and the maximal violation $\mathcal{M}$ of a Bell inequality. No such relation exists for the three-qubit analog of $\mathcal{C}$ (the tangle $\ensuremath{\tau}$), but we have found that numerical data is consistent with a simple set of upper and lower bounds for $\ensuremath{\tau}$ given $\mathcal{M}$. The bounds on $\ensuremath{\tau}$ become tighter with increasing $\mathcal{M}$, so they are of practical use. The Svetlichny form of the Bell inequality gives tighter bounds than the Mermin form. We show that the bounds can be tightened further if the tangle is replaced by an entanglement monotone that can identify both the W state and the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state.

Bell’s inequality, generalized concurrence and entanglement in qubits

Po-Yao Chang, Su-Kuan Chu, Chen‐Te Ma

It is well known that the maximal violation of the Bell’s inequality for a two-qubit system is related to the entanglement formation in terms of a concurrence. However, a generalization of this relation to an [Formula: see text]-qubit state has not been found. In this paper, we demonstrate some extensions of the relation between the upper bound of the Bell’s violation and a generalized concurrence in several [Formula: see text]-qubit states. In particular, we show the upper bound of the Bell’s violation can be expressed as a function of the generalized concurrence, if a state can be expressed in terms of two variables. We apply the relation to the Wen-Plaquette model and show that the topological entanglement entropy can be extracted from the maximal Bell’s violation.

Maximal Violation of the Original Bell Inequality: Two-Qubit and -Qutrit States

Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

In this chapter we introduce the general class of symmetric two-qubit statesguaranteeing the perfect correlation or anticorrelation of Alice and Bob outcomeswhenever some spin observable is measured at both sites. It is proventhat, for all states from this class, the maximal violation of the original Bellinequality (OB) is upper bounded by 3/2 and specify the two-qubit stateswhere this quantum upper bound is attained. The case of two-qutrit statesis more complicated. Here, for all two-qutrit states, we obtain the same upperbound 3/2 for violation of the original Bell inequality under Alice and Bobspin measurements. But it has not yet been shown that this quantum upperbound is the least one. The experimental consequences of this mathematicalstudy are discussed.
