Abstract

We study multipartite Bell nonlocality in a framework native of multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering scenarios with a single trusted measurement device. We derive a closed-form necessary and sufficient criterion for systems composed of a qubit and $N\ensuremath{-}1$ untrusted black-box measurement devices to violate, under general dichotomic measurements on the qubit, a generic Bell inequality from a broad family of linear inequalities with arbitrarily many outputs for the $N\ensuremath{-}1$ untrusted devices and inputs for all $N$ parties. The optimal quantum measurements for maximal violation are also obtained. For two users and two inputs and two outputs per user, our criterion becomes necessary and sufficient for Bell nonlocality. Furthermore, in that setting, its form generalizes recently obtained steering inequalities, which allows us to provide useful feedback from nonlocality to the detection of steering. Our findings constitute a practical tool for the study of the interplay between EPR steering and Bell nonlocality, with potential applications in multipartite information processing.

Necessary and sufficient conditions for Bell violations in one-sided device-independent scenarios

We study multipartite Bell nonlocality in a framework native of multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering scenarios with a single trusted measurement device. We derive a closed-form necessary and sufficient criterion for systems composed of a qubit and N-1 untrusted black-box measurement devices to violate -- under general dichotomic measurements on the qubit -- a generic Bell inequality from a broad family of linear inequalities with arbitrarily many outputs for the N-1 untrusted devices and inputs for all N parties. The optimal quantum measurements for maximal violation are also obtained. For two users, and two inputs and two outputs per user, our criterion becomes necessary and sufficient for Bell nonlocality. Furthermore, in that setting, its form generalizes recently obtained steering inequalities, which allows us to provide useful feedback from nonlocality to the detection of steering.

All two-qubit states that are steerable via Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt-type correlations are Bell nonlocal

Parth Girdhar, Eric G. Cavalcanti

We derive an inequality that is necessary and sufficient to show Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering in a scenario employing only correlations between two arbitrary dichotomic measurements on each party. Thus the inequality is a complete steering analogy of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality, a generalization of the result of Cavalcanti et al. [E. G. Cavalcanti, C. J. Foster, M. Fuwa, and H. M. Wiseman, JOSA B 32, A74 (2015)]. We show that violation of the inequality only requires measuring over equivalence classes of mutually unbiased measurements on the trusted party and that in fact assuming a general two-qubit system arbitrary pairs of distinct projective measurements at the trusted party are equally useful. Via this it is found that for a given state the maximum violation of our EPR-steering inequality is equal to that for the CHSH inequality, so all states that are EPR steerable with CHSH-type correlations are also Bell nonlocal.

Genuine High-Order Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Steering

Che‐Ming Li, Kai Chen, Yueh-Nan Chen +3 more

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering demonstrates that two parties share entanglement even if the measurement devices of one party are untrusted. Here, going beyond this bipartite concept, we develop a novel formalism to explore a large class of EPR steering from generic multipartite quantum systems of arbitrarily high dimensionality and degrees of freedom, such as graph states and hyperentangled systems. All of these quantum characteristics of genuine high-order EPR steering can be efficiently certified with few measurement settings in experiments. We faithfully demonstrate for the first time such generality by experimentally showing genuine four-partite EPR steering and applications to universal one-way quantum computing. Our formalism provides a new insight into the intermediate type of genuine multipartite Bell nonlocality and potential applications to quantum information tasks and experiments in the presence of untrusted measurement devices.

Optimized detection of steering via linear criteria for arbitrary-dimensional states

Yu-Lin Zheng, Yi-Zheng Zhen, Wen-Fei Cao +4 more

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering, as a new form of nonlocality, stands between entanglement and Bell nonlocality, implying promising applications for quantum information tasks. The problem of detecting EPR steering plays an important role in characterization of quantum nonlocality. Despite some significant progress, one still faces a practical issue: how to detect EPR steering in an experimentally friendly fashion. Resorting to an EPR steering inequality, one is required to apply a strategy as efficiently as possible for any selected measurement settings on the two subsystems, one of which may not be trusted. Inspired by the recent powerful linear criteria proposed by Saunders et al. [D. J. Saunders, S. J. Jones, H. M. Wiseman, and G. J. Pryde, Nat. Phys. 6, 845 (2010).], we present an optimized method of certifying steering for an arbitrary-dimensional state in a cost-effective manner. We provide a practical way to signify steering via only a few settings to optimally violate the steering inequality. Our method leads to steering detections in a highly efficient way, and can be performed with any number of settings, for an arbitrary bipartite mixed state, which can reduce experimental overheads significantly.

Analogue of the CHSH inequality for steering

Eric G. Cavalcanti, Christopher J. Foster, Maria Fuwa +1 more

The Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality (and its permutations), are necessary and sufficient criteria for Bell nonlocality in the simplest Bell-nonlocality scenario: 2 parties, 2 measurements per party and 2 outcomes per measurement. Here we derive an inequality for EPR-steering that is an analogue of the CHSH, in that it is necessary and sufficient in this same scenario. However, since in the case of steering the device at Bob's site must be specified (as opposed to the Bell case in which it is a black box), the scenario we consider is that where Alice performs two (black-box) dichotomic measurements, and Bob performs two mutually unbiased qubit measurements. We show that this inequality is strictly weaker than the CHSH, as expected, and use it to decide whether a recent experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 130401 (2013).] involving a single-photon split between two parties has demonstrated EPR-steering.

Detecting genuine multipartite entanglement in steering scenarios

Chellasamy Jebarathinam

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering is a form of quantum nonlocality which is intermediate between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. EPR steering is a resource for quantum key distribution that is device independent on only one side in that it certifies bipartite entanglement when one party's device is not characterized while the other party's device is fully characterized. In this work, we introduce two types of genuine tripartite EPR steering, and derive two steering inequalities to detect them. In a semi-device-independent scenario where only the dimensions of two parties are assumed, the correlations which violate one of these inequalities also certify genuine tripartite entanglement. It is known that Alice can demonstrate bipartite EPR steering to Bob if and only if her measurement settings are incompatible. We demonstrate that quantum correlations can also detect tripartite EPR steering from Alice to Bob and Charlie, even if Charlie's measurement settings are compatible.
