Abstract

We derive Bell inequalities for graph states by generalizing the approach proposed by Ardehali [Phys. Rev. A 46, 5375 (1992)] for Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states. Using this method, we demonstrate that Bell inequalities with nonstabilizer observables are often superior to the optimal GHZ-Mermin-type (or stabilizer-type) Bell inequalities.

Mermin inequalities for perfect correlations

Adán Cabello, Otfried Gühne, David Rodríguez

Any $n$-qubit state with $n$ independent perfect correlations is equivalent to a graph state. We present the optimal Bell inequalities for perfect correlations and maximal violation for all classes of graph states with $n\ensuremath{\le}6$ qubits. Twelve of them were previously unknown and four give the same violation as the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state, although the corresponding states are more resistant to decoherence.

Scalable Bell inequalities for multiqubit systems

Yingqiu He, Dong Ding, Fengli Yan +1 more

Based on Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality, we show a fruitful method to exploit Bell inequalities for multipartite qubit systems. These Bell inequalities are designed with a simpler architecture tailored to experimental demonstration. With the point of view of the stabilizer formalism, we suggest a method to investigate quantum nonlocality for multipartite systems. Under the optimal setting we derive a set of compact Mermin-type inequalities and then discuss quantum violations for generalized Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GGHZ) states and two kinds of mixed states. Also, as an example, we reveal relationship between quantum nonlocality and four-partite entanglement for four-qubit GGHZ states.

Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger Paradoxes from Qudit Graph States

Weidong Tang, Sixia Yu, C. H. Oh

One fascinating way of revealing quantum nonlocality is the all-versus-nothing test due to Greenberger, Horne, and Zeilinger (GHZ) known as the GHZ paradox. So far genuine multipartite and multilevel GHZ paradoxes are known to exist only in systems containing an odd number of particles. Here we shall construct GHZ paradoxes for an arbitrary number (greater than 3) of particles with the help of qudit graph states on a special kind of graphs, called GHZ graphs. Furthermore, based on the GHZ paradox arising from a GHZ graph, we derive a Bell inequality with two d-outcome observables for each observer, whose maximal violation attained by the corresponding graph state, and a Kochen-Specker inequality testing the quantum contextuality in a state-independent fashion.

Variants of Bell inequalities

Zeqian Chen

A family of Bell-type inequalities is present, which are constructed directly from the "standard" Bell inequalities involving two dichotomic observables per site. It is shown that the inequalities are violated by all the generalized Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states of multiqubits. Remarkably, our new inequalities can provide stronger non-locality tests in a sense that the local reality inequalities are exponentially stronger than the corresponding multipartite separability inequalities. This reveals that the exponential violation of local realism by separable states is an interesting consequence of quantum fluctuation of multipartite systems.

Bell Theorem without Inequality for Some Generalized GHZ and W States

Ren C, Shi Ming-Jun, Du Jiang-Feng

Bell's theorem without inequalities is applied for some general Greenberger–Horn–Zeilinger (GHZ) states and W states and a wide range of such states can exhibit all-versus-nothing conflict between local realism and quantum theory. The case of standard GHZ state is contained in our proposal. For some generalized GHZ states more intensive violation on local realism is manifested.

Bell’s theorem with and without inequalities for the three-qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger andWstates

Adán Cabello

A proof of Bell's theorem without inequalities valid for both inequivalent classes of three-qubit entangled states under local operations assisted by classical communication, namely Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) and $W,$ is described. This proof leads to a Bell inequality that allows more conclusive tests of Bell's theorem for three-qubit systems. Another Bell inequality involving both tri- and bipartite correlations is introduced which illustrates the different violations of local realism exhibited by the GHZ and $W$ states.
