Abstract

We investigate the behavior of the maximal violations of the CHSH inequality and Vèrtesi's inequality under the local filtering operations. An analytical method has been presented for general two-qubit systems to compute the maximal violation of the CHSH inequality and the lower bound of the maximal violation of Vértesi's inequality over the local filtering operations. We show by examples that there exist quantum states whose non-locality can be revealed after local filtering operation by the Vértesi's inequality instead of the CHSH inequality.

Violation of Bell-CHSH Inequalities through Optimal Local Filters in the Vacuum

Akira Matsumura, Yasusada Nambu

We investigate quantum correlations appearing for two-qubit detectors which are initially uncorrelated and locally coupled to a massless scalar field in a vacuum state. Under the perturbation up to the second order in the coupling, the state of the detectors can be entangled through the interaction with the scalar field but satisfies the Bell-CHSH inequality. The violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality for such an entangled state is revealed by local filtering operations. In this paper, we construct the optimal filtering operations for the qubit detectors and derive the success probability of the filtering. The success probability characterizes the reliability of revealing the violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality by the filtering operations. Through these analyses, we demonstrate a trade-off relation between the success probability and the size of parameter region showing the violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality.

Detectability of Bell-CHSH nonlocality by qubit detectors with optimal local filters

Akira Matsumura, Yasusada Nambu

We investigate the detection problem of quantum nonlocal correlation by two qubit detectors. The detectors with an initial product state interact with a massless scalar field in the vacuum state, and then the out-state of the detectors are correlated after the interaction. Under the perturbative treatment in the second order of the coupling, the detectors' state can be entangled but satisfies the Bell-CHSH inequality. It is known that the violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality for such an entangled state is obtained after a local filtering operation. In this paper, we construct the optimal filtering operation for the qubit detectors and derive the success probability of the filtering operation, which characterizes the reliability of revealing the Bell-CHSH nonlocality by the filtering operations. By applying the optimal filtering, it is shown that the detected Bell-CHSH nonlocality depends on the coherence of the detectors' state and the spontaneous emission of scalar particles from each detector. We also comment on a trade-off relation between the success probability and the size of the parameter region showing quantum correlation.

Violation of Bell-CHSH Inequality Under Global Unitary Operations

Arup Roy, Some Sankar Bhattacharya, Amit Mukherjee +1 more

The action of global unitary operations can have intriguing effects on the non-local manifestations of a quantum state. States which do not violate Bell-CHSH inequality, can violate it when transformed by a global unitary. This phenomena assumes significance when one exercises to augment non-local resources(in terms of violation of Bell-CHSH inequality) from these seemingly useless states(i.e., in terms of non-local tasks). However, equally intriguing is the existence of states from which no non-local resource can be generated with a global unitary. The present work confirms the existence of such a set, pertaining to two qubit states. The set exhibits counter intuitive features by containing within it some entangled states which remain Bell-CHSH local on the action of any unitary. Furthermore through an analytic characterization of the set we lay down a generic prescription through which one can operationally identify states which can generate non-local resources under the action of a unitary on the composite system. It has also been shown that our prescription remains valid for any linear Bell inequality.

SOS decomposition for general Bell inequalities in two qubits systems and its application to quantum randomness

Wen-Na Zhao, Youwang Xiao, Ming Li +2 more

Abstract Bell non-locality is closely related with device independent quantum randomness. In this paper, we present a kind of sum-of-squares (SOS) decomposition for general Bell inequalities in two qubits systems. By using the obtained SOS decomposition, we can then find the measurement operators associated with the maximal violation of considered Bell inequality. We also practice the SOS decomposition method by considering the (generalized) Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) Bell inequality, the Elegant Bell inequality, the Gisin inequality and the Chained Bell inequality as examples. The corresponding SOS decompositions and the measurement operators that cause the maximum violation values of these Bell inequalities are derived, which are consistent with previous results. We further discuss the device independent quantum randomness by using the SOS decompositions of Bell inequalities. We take the generalized CHSH inequality with the maximally entangled state and the Werner state that attaining the maximal violations as examples. Exact value or lower bound on the maximal guessing probability using the SOS decomposition are obtained. For Werner state, the lower bound can supply a much precise estimation of quantum randomness when p tends to 1.

Entanglement estimation from Bell inequality violation

Karol Bartkiewicz, Bohdan Horst, Karel Lemr +1 more

It is well known that the violation of Bell's inequality in the form given by Clauser, Horne, Shimony, and Holt (CHSH) in two-qubit systems requires entanglement, but not vice versa, i.e., there are entangled states which do not violate the CHSH inequality. Here we compare some standard entanglement measures with violations of the CHSH inequality (as given by the Horodecki measure) for two-qubit states generated by Monte Carlo simulations. We describe states that have extremal entanglement according to the negativity, concurrence, and relative entropy of entanglement for a given value of the CHSH violation. We explicitly find these extremal states by applying the generalized method of Lagrange multipliers based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions. The found minimal and maximal states define the range of entanglement accessible for any two-qubit states that violate the CHSH inequality by the same amount. We also find extremal states for the concurrence versus negativity by considering only such states which do not violate the CHSH inequality. Furthermore, we describe an experimentally efficient linear-optical method to determine the highest Horodecki degree of the CHSH violation for arbitrary mixed states of two polarization qubits. By assuming to have access simultaneously to two copies of the states, our method requires only six discrete measurement settings instead of nine settings, which are usually considered.

LOCC-Maximized Quantum Fisher Information as a Necessary Condition for CHSH Violation

Volkan Erol

We investigate the relationship between CHSH inequality violation and quantum Fisher information (QFI) maximized over local operations and classical communication (LOCC) for two-qubit systems. Through systematic analysis of 1000 random states, we discover that no state with Bell parameter M(ρ) exceeding maximized QFI violates the CHSH inequality, suggesting QFImax serves as a necessary condition. States partition into three classes: (1) M(ρ) > QFImax with CHSH violation (23%), (2) M(ρ) > QFImax without violation (41%), and (3) M(ρ) < QFImax without violation (36%). We identify relative entropy of entanglement thresholds (0.14 and 0.26) separating regions of guaranteed violation, ambiguous behavior, and no violation. Furthermore, 98% of states exhibit QFI values that cross the separability bound under local rotations. These results provide efficient pre-screening criteria for device-independent quantum protocols and reveal deep connections between quantum metrology and Bell nonlocality.
