A new way to obtain Bell inequalities

The new axiom in set theory, axiom of the empty sets, allows another way to formulate Bell inequality in quantum mechanics. The new axiom emerges from the historical and philosophical analysis of set theory.

It is very difficult and important to construct Bell inequalities for n-partite, k-settings of measurement, and d-dimensional (n,k,d) systems. Inspired by the iteration formula form of the Mermin-Ardehali-Belinski{\uı}-Klyshko (MABK) inequality, we generalize the multi-component correlation functions for bipartite d-dimensional systems to n-partite ones, and construct the corresponding Bell inequality. The Collins-Gisin-Linden-Massar-Popescu inequality can be reproduced by this way. The most important result is that for prime d the general Bell function in full-correlated multi-component correlation function form for (n,2,d) systems can be reformulated in iteration formula by two full-correlated multi-component Bell functions for (n-1,2,d) systems. As applications, we recover the MABK inequality and the most robust coincidence Bell inequalities for (3,2,3),(4,2,3),(5,2,3), and (3,2,5) Bell scenarios with this iteration formula. This implies that the iteration formula is an efficient way of constructing multi-partite Bell inequalities. In addition, we also give some new Bell inequalities with the same robustness but inequivalent to the known ones.

We established a physically utilizable Bell inequality based on the Peres-Horodecki criterion. The new quadratic probabilistic Bell inequality naturally provides us a necessary and sufficient way to test all entangled two-qubit or qubit-qutrit states including the Werner states and the maximally entangled mixed states.
