Abstract

Generalizations of the classic Bell inequality to higher-dimensional quantum systems known as qudits are reputed to exhibit a higher degree of robustness to noise but such claims are based on one particular noise model. We analyze the violation of the Collins-Gisin-Linden-Massar-Popescu inequality subject to more realistic noise sources and their scaling with dimension. This analysis is inspired by potential Bell inequality experiments with superconducting resonator-based qudits. We find that the robustness of the inequality to noise generally decreases with increasing qudit dimension.

Multisetting Bell inequality for qudits

Se-Wan Ji, Jinhyoung Lee, James Lim +2 more

We propose a generalized Bell inequality for two three-dimensional systems with three settings in each local measurement. It is shown that this inequality is maximally violated if local measurements are configured to be mutually unbiased and a composite state is maximally entangled. This feature is similar to Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality for two qubits but is in contrast with the two types of inequalities, Collins-Gisin-Linden-Massar-Popescu and Son-Lee-Kim, for high-dimensional systems. The generalization to aribitrary prime-dimensional systems is discussed.

Survey on the Bell nonlocality of a pair of entangled qudits

Alejandro Fonseca, Anna de Rosier, Tamás Vértesi +2 more

The question of how Bell nonlocality behaves in bipartite systems of higher dimensions is addressed. By employing the probability of violation of local realism under random measurements as the figure of merit, we investigate the nonlocality of entangled qudits with dimensions ranging from $d=2$ up to $d=10$. We proceed in two complementary directions. First, we study the specific Bell scenario defined by the Collins-Gisin-Linden-Massar-Popescu (CGLMP) inequality. Second, we consider the nonlocality of the same states under a more general perspective by directly addressing the space of joint probabilities (computing the frequencies of behaviours outside the local polytope). In both approaches we find that the nonlocality decreases as the dimension $d$ grows, but in quite distinct ways. While the drop in the probability of violation is exponential in the CGLMP scenario, it presents, at most, a linear decay in the space of behaviors. Furthermore, in the latter approach the states that produce maximal numeric violations in the CGLMP inequality present low probabilities of violation in comparison to maximally entangled states, so no anomaly is observed. Finally, the nonlocality of states with nonmaximal Schmidt rank is investigated.

Robustness of higher-dimensional nonlocality against dual noise and sequential measurements

Saptarshi Roy, Asmita Kumari, Shiladitya Mal +1 more

The robustness of the violation of the Collins-Linden-Gisin-Masser-Popescu (CGLMP) inequality is investigated from the dual perspectives of noise in measurements and in states. To quantify it, we introduce a quantity called the area of the nonlocal region which reveals a dimensional advantage. Specifically, we report that with an increase in dimension, the maximally violating states show greater enhancement in the area of the nonlocal region in comparison to the maximally entangled states and the scaling of the increment in this case grows faster than visibility. Moreover, we examine the robustness of the sequential violation of the CGLMP inequality using weak measurements and find that even for higher dimensions, the simultaneous violation of the CGLMP inequalities of two observers as obtained for two-qubit states persists. We notice that the complementarity between information gain and disturbance from measurements is manifested by the decrease in the visibility in the first round and the increase in the same in the second round with dimensions. Furthermore, the amount of white noise that can be added to a maximally entangled state so that it has two rounds of the violation decreases with the dimension, while it does not appreciably change for the maximally violating states.

Genuinely high-dimensional nonlocality optimized by complementary measurements

James Lim, Junghee Ryu, Seokwon Yoo +3 more

Qubits exhibit extreme nonlocality when their state is maximally entangled and this is observed by mutually unbiased local measurements. This criterion does not hold for the Bell inequalities of high-dimensional systems (qudits), recently proposed by Collins–Gisin–Linden–Massar–Popescu and Son–Lee–Kim. Taking an alternative approach, called the quantum-to-classical approach, we derive a series of Bell inequalities for qudits that satisfy the criterion as for the qubits. In the derivation each d -dimensional subsystem is assumed to be measured by one of d possible measurements with d being a prime integer. By applying to two qubits ( d =2), we find that a derived inequality is reduced to the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt inequality when the degree of nonlocality is optimized over all the possible states and local observables. Further applying to two and three qutrits ( d =3), we find Bell inequalities that are violated for the three-dimensionally entangled states but are not violated by any two-dimensionally entangled states. In other words, the inequalities discriminate three-dimensional (3D) entanglement from two-dimensional (2D) entanglement and in this sense they are genuinely 3D. In addition, for the two qutrits we give a quantitative description of the relations among the three degrees of complementarity, entanglement and nonlocality. It is shown that the degree of complementarity jumps abruptly to very close to its maximum as nonlocality starts appearing. These characteristics imply that complementarity plays a more significant role in the present inequality compared with the previously proposed inequality.

Gisin’s theorem for two d -dimensional systems based on the Collins-Gisin-Linden-Masser-Popescu inequality

Jing‐Ling Chen, Dong-Ling Deng, Ming-Guang Hu

In this Rapid Communication, we show analytically that all pure entangled states of two $d$-dimensional systems (qudits) violate the Collins-Gisin-Linden-Masser-Popescu (CGLMP) inequality. This property was pointed out by Gisin in the qubit case and then generalized by Gisin-Peres and Popescu-Rohrlich to the qudit case based on the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality. We report the Gisin's theorem for two qudits by making use of the CGLMP inequality.

Locality of a noisy N-qudit state for large N

Elena R. Loubenets

Locality of a noisy state for a large number of nonlocally entangled qudits was analyzed in the literature only in the qubit case and only within separability of a noisy N-qubit state. In the present paper, we evaluate amounts of noise breaking the nonlocal character of statistical correlations of $N$ entangled qudits by analyzing Bell inequalities violations via the general frame, the LqHV (local quasi hidden variable) modeling frame, introduced in [Loubenets: J. Math. Phys. 53, 022201 (2012)]. This allows us to derive the general exact bound on locality of a noisy N-qudit state which is new and important for all $N\geq 3$ and $d\geq 2.$ We specify the locality noise thresholds for the maximally entangled state and arbitrary nonlocal states of $N\geq 3$ qudits and study their asymptotics for large $N$. In view of developing quantum information technologies with many particle quantum systems, this problem is of a particular interest.
