Abstract

We address the recently posed question as to whether the nonlocality of a single member of an entangled pair of spin $1/2$ particles can be shared among multiple observers on the other wing who act sequentially and independently of each other [1]. We first show that the optimality condition for the trade-off between information gain and disturbance in the context of weak or non-ideal measurements emerges naturally when one employs a one-parameter class of positive operator valued measures (POVMs). Using this formalism we then prove analytically that it is impossible to obtain violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality by more than two Bobs in one of the two wings using unbiased input settings with an Alice in the other wing.

Multiple Observers Can Share the Nonlocality of Half of an Entangled Pair by Using Optimal Weak Measurements

Ralph Silva, Nicolas Gisin, Yelena Guryanova +1 more

We investigate the trade-off between information gain and disturbance for von Neumann measurements on spin-1/2 particles, and derive the measurement pointer state that saturates this trade-off, which turns out to be highly unusual. We apply this result to the question of whether the nonlocality of a single particle from an entangled pair can be shared among multiple observers that act sequentially and independently of each other, and show that an arbitrarily long sequence of such observers can all violate the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt-Bell inequality.

Non-locality can be Shared between Alice and three Bobs in unbiased settings case

Changliang Ren, Tianfeng Feng, Yao, Dan +2 more

A well-known property of quantum nonlocality is monogamy. However, recent research by Silva \emph{et al.} shows that multiple observers can share the nonlocality by using weak measurements [Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 250401 (2015)]. There is an open question left in their result: whether the nonlocality of a single particle from an entangled pair can be shared among more than two observers that act sequentially and independently of each other? In this work, we analytical and numerical shows that it is possible to observe a triple violation of CHSH inequality between Alice and three Bobs when the measurements of each of the several observers at one side are unbiased with respect to the previous observers. This result overturns the conclusions and proofs of previous related work on this issue which has been widely shared in the scientific community before.

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.

Facets of bipartite nonlocality sharing by multiple observers via sequential measurements

Debarshi Das, Arkaprabha Ghosal, Souradeep Sasmal +2 more

Recently, it has been shown that at most two observers (Bobs) can sequentially demonstrate bipartite nonlocality with a spatially separated single observer (Alice) invoking a scenario where an entangled system of two spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles are shared between a single Alice in one wing and several Bobs on the other wing, who act sequentially and independently of each other [Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 250401 (2015)]. This has been probed through the quantum violations of CHSH inequality, i.e., when each observer performs two dichotomic measurements. In the present study we investigate how many Bobs can sequentially demonstrate bipartite nonlocality with a single Alice in the above scenario when the number of measurement settings per observer is increased. It is shown that at most two Bobs can exhibit bipartite nonlocality with a single Alice using local realist inequalities with three as well as four dichotomic measurements per observer. We then conjecture that the above feature remains unchanged contingent upon using local realist inequalities with $n$ dichotomic measurements per observer, where $n$ is arbitrary. We further present the robustness of bipartite nonlocality sharing in the above scenario against the entanglement and mixedness of the shared state.

Sharing quantum nonlocality and genuine nonlocality with independent observables

Tinggui Zhang, Shao-Ming Fei

Recently the authors of Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 090401 (2020) considered the following scenario: Alice and Bob each have half of a pair of entangled qubit states. Bob measures his half and then passes his part 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) inequality with the single Alice. By taking the maximally entangled pure two-qubit state $|\ensuremath{\phi}\ensuremath{\rangle}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(|00\ensuremath{\rangle}+|11\ensuremath{\rangle})$ as an example, it has been constructively proved that arbitrarily many independent Bobs can share the nonlocality with the single Alice. Here we demonstrate that arbitrarily many independent observers can share the nonlocality of a single arbitrary dimensional bipartite entangled but not necessary two-qubit entangled state. Furthermore, taking the generalized Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states as an example, we show that at most two Charlies can share the genuine nonlocality of a single generalized GHZ state with an Alice and a Bob.
