Trade-off relations of Bell violations among pairwise qubit systems

Abstract

We investigate the nonlocality distributions among multiqubit systems based on the maximal violations of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality of reduced pairwise qubit systems. We present a trade-off relation satisfied by these maximal violations, which gives rise to restrictions on the distribution of nonlocality among the subqubit systems. For a three-qubit system, it is impossible that all pairs of qubits violate the CHSH inequality, and once a pair of qubits violates the CHSH inequality maximally, the other two pairs of qubits must both obey the CHSH inequality. Detailed examples are given to illustrate the trade-off relations, and the trade-off relations are generalized to arbitrary multiqubit systems.

Maximal Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt violation for qubit-qudit states

Alexander Bernal, J.A. Casas, Jesús M. Moreno

We evaluate the maximal Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) violation for a generic (typically mixed) qubit-qudit state, obtaining easily computable expressions in arbitrary qudit dimension. This represents the optimal (2-2-2) Bell nonlocality for this kind of systems. The work generalizes the well-known Horodeckis result for a qubit-qubit setup. We also give simple lower and upper bounds on that violation. We apply our general results to address a number of issues, namely, we obtain a bound on the degree of purity required in a system to exhibit nonlocality and study the statistics of nonlocality in random density matrices. In addition, we show the impossibility of improving the amount of CHSH violation by embedding the qudit in a Hilbert space of larger dimension. Finally, the general result is illustrated with a family of density matrices in the context of a qubit-qutrit system.

Detecting Bell-CHSH nonlocality of pure symmetric three-qubit states

K. Anjali, Akshata Shenoy H., H. S. Karthik +3 more

We explore nonlocality of three-qubit pure symmetric states shared between Alice, Bob and Charlie using the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality. We show that the reduced two-qubit states, extracted from an arbitrary pure entangled symmetric three-qubit state, do not violate the CHSH inequality and hence they are CHSH-local . However, when Alice and Bob perform the CHSH test, after conditioning over measurement results of Charlie, nonlocality of the state is revealed. It is also shown that two different classes of three-qubit pure symmetric states, consisting of two and three distinct constituent spinors (qubits) respectively, can be distinguished through the conditional CHSH non-locality test.

Variant of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality

Zeqian Chen

We construct a Bell inequality from the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality for two qubits that provides a stronger bound on the correlations of entangled states than allowed by the CHSH inequality. The argument involved here can be generalized to $n$ qubits. The inequalities obtained are violated by all the generalized Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states of multiqubits.

Arbitrarily Many Independent Observers can Share the Nonlocality of a Single Maximally Entangled Qubit Pair

Peter J. Brown, Roger Colbeck

Alice and Bob each have half of a pair of entangled qubits. Bob measures his half and then passes his qubit to a second Bob who measures again and so on. The goal is to maximize the number of Bobs that can have an expected violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) Bell inequality with the single Alice. This scenario was introduced in [R. Silva et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 250401 (2015)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.114.250401] where the authors mentioned evidence that when the Bobs act independently and with unbiased inputs then at most two of them can expect to violate the CHSH inequality with Alice. Here we show that, contrary to this evidence, arbitrarily many independent Bobs can have an expected CHSH violation with the single Alice. Our proof is constructive and our measurement strategies can be generalized to work with a larger class of two-qubit states that includes all pure entangled two-qubit states. Since violation of a Bell inequality is necessary for device-independent tasks, our work represents a step towards an eventual understanding of the limitations on how much device-independent randomness can be robustly generated from a single pair of qubits.

Nonlocality of Two-Qubit and Three-Qubit Schmidt—Correlated States

Ming-Jing Zhao, Zong-Guo Li, Bo Li +3 more

We investigate the nonlocality of Schmidt-correlated (SC) states, and present analytical expressions of the maximum violation value of Bell inequalities. It is shown that the violation of Clauser—Horne—Shimony—Holt (CHSH) inequality is necessary and sufficient for the nonlocality of two-qubit SC states, whereas the violation of the Svetlichny inequality is only a sufficient condition for the genuine nonlocality of three-qubit SC states. Furthermore, the relations among the maximum violation values, concurrence, and relative entropy entanglement are discussed.
