The geometry of violation of Bell’s inequality

Weihan Tan, Qizhi Guo

Published Jun 20, 2003• 0 citations

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to deduce an analytical expression for the violation of Bell's inequality by quantum theory and plane trigonometry, and expound the violation and maximal violation of the first, second type Bell's inequality in detail. Further, we find out the sufficient conditions for the region in which Bell's inequalities are violated.

Bell inequalities and entanglement

Reinhard F. Werner, Michael M. Wolf

We discuss general Bell inequalities for bipartite and multipartite systems, emphasizing the connection with convex geometry on the mathematical side, and the communication aspects on the physical side. Known results on families of generalized Bell inequalities are summarized. We investigate maximal violations of Bell inequalities as well as states not violating (certain) Bell inequalities. Finally, we discuss the relation between Bell inequality violations and entanglement properties currently discussed in quantum information theory.

Tracing the bounds on Bell-type inequalities

Stefan Filipp, Karl Svozil

Bell-type inequalities and violations thereof reveal the fundamental differences between standard probability theory and its quantum counterpart. In the course of previous investigations ultimate bounds on quantum mechanical violations have been found. For example, Tsirelson's bound constitutes a global upper limit for quantum violations of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) and the Clauser-Horne (CH) inequalities. Here we investigate a method for calculating the precise quantum bounds on arbitrary Bell-type inequalities by solving the eigenvalue problem for the operator associated with each Bell-type inequality. Thereby, we use the min-max principle to calculate the norm of these self-adjoint operators from the maximal eigenvalue yielding the upper bound for a particular set of measurement parameters. The eigenvectors corresponding to the maximal eigenvalues provide the quantum state for which a Bell-type inequality is maximally violated.

Bell inequalities and their maximal violation

K. Veerkamp

Bell inequalities are certain probabilistic inequalities that should hold in the context of quantum measurement under assumption of a local hidden variable model. These inequalities can be violated according to the theory of quantum mechanics and have also been violated experimentally. Bell inequalities were therefore historically used to disprove local hidden variable models as an interpretation of quantum mechanics. An interesting question is to what degree Bell inequalities can be violated according to the theory of quantum mechanics. The degree to which a particular Bell inequality can be violated is quantified by the largest violation of the Bell inequality. A central question we address in this thesis is how large the largest violation can become when considering all possible Bell inequalities. In particular the CHSH-inequality, a well-known Bell inequality, has a largest violation equal to the square root of 2 and we want to find a Bell inequality with largest violation exceeding the square root of 2. This thesis consists of two main parts. In the first part we formally define Bell inequalities and the largest violation and prove several theorems about Bell inequalities. In the second part we search for Bell inequalities with largest violation exceeding the square root of 2. We do this by first approximating the largest violation of a given Bell inequality using numerical optimization. Next, using this approximation, we use numerical optimization to maximize the largest violation. Due to run-time restrictions we were only able to consider Bell inequalities with a relatively small number of terms and were unable to find any among them with largest violation exceeding the square root of 2.
