Revival of Bell nonlocality across a quantum spin chain

Abstract

The transmission of pure and mixed states along a quantum spin chain is investigated. Nonlocality between two qubits will evolve as it is transmitted through the quantum channel in a way that may violate or not the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) Bell inequality at different times. This violation of local realism is analogue to the so-called sudden death and sudden birth features of entanglement. In the quantum channel, which will turn to be a damping one, some (mixed) states will be preferred according to the nature of the quantum correlations that are preserved during the evolution along the spin chain.

Time-invariant entanglement and sudden death of nonlocality

Bi‐Heng Liu, Xiao-Min Hu, Jiang-Shan Chen +8 more

We investigate both theoretically and experimentally the dynamics of entanglement and nonlocality for two qubits immersed in a global pure dephasing environment. We demonstrate the existence of a class of states for which entanglement is forever frozen during the dynamics, even if the state of the system does evolve. At the same time nonlocal correlations, quantified by the violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality, either undergo sudden death or are trapped during the dynamics.

Nonlocality under Jaynes-Cummings evolution: Beyond pseudospin operators

Alexander Bernal, J.A. Casas, Jesús M. Moreno

We revisit the generation and evolution of Bell nonlocality in hybrid scenarios of which the dynamics is determined by the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian, a relevant example of which is the atom-cavity system. Previous approaches evaluate the nonlocality through the well-known qubit-qubit Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) formulas, using combinations of pseudospin operators for the electromagnetic (EM) field observables. While such an approach is sensible, it is far from optimal. In the present work we have used recent results on optimal Bell violation in qubit-qudit systems, showing that the nonlocality is much greater than previously estimated, both with and without noise. In addition, we provide an optimal treatment of noise, ensuring that our results are the best possible within this framework. We illustrate the results using different initial states for the EM field, including squeezed and coherent states. In addition, we study the asymptotic behavior of the entanglement. Remarkably, starting with a generic separable pure coherent state, the asymptotic mixed state is entangled, though it does not violate CHSH inequalities.

Quantum Measurement of Two-Qubit System in Damping Noise Environment*

Qing Yang, Hui Liu, Xiu-Lan Zhen +2 more

Abstract It is known that the inevitable interaction of the entangled qubits with their environments may result in the degradation of quantum correlation. We study the decoherence of two remote qubits under general local single- and two-sided amplitude-damping channel (ADC). By using concurrence, quantum discord and Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) inequality, we find that the relation between the residual quantum correlations and the initial ones are different. Recently, Wang et al. [Int. J. Theor. Phys. 54 (2015) 5] showed that there exist a set of partially entangled states that are more robust than maximally entangled states in terms of the residual quantum correlation measured by concurrence, fully entangled fraction and quantum discord, respectively. Here we find that both in single- and two-sided ADC, only the evolution of CHSH inequality with the initial parameter is proportional to that of the initial nonlocality. That means the initial state with maximally nonlocality will retain its role in the evolution. It implies that the evolution of nonlocality may reveal the characteristics of quantum state better. Furthermore, we discuss the evolutions of the three different quantum measurements with the initial parameter under generalized amplitude damping channel (GADC) and find that they are all proportional to that of the initial state.

Position-momentum Bell nonlocality with entangled photon pairs

James Schneeloch, Samuel H. Knarr, Daniel J. Lum +1 more

Witnessing continuous-variable Bell nonlocality is a challenging endeavor, but Bell himself showed how one might demonstrate this nonlocality. Although Bell nearly showed a violation using the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality with sign-binned position-momentum statistics of entangled pairs of particles measured at different times, his demonstration is subject to approximations not realizable in a laboratory setting. Moreover, he does not give a quantitative estimation of the maximum achievable violation for the wave function he considers. In this article, we show how his strategy can be reimagined using the transverse positions and momenta of entangled photon pairs measured at different propagation distances, and we find that the maximum achievable violation for the state he considers is actually very small relative to the upper limit of $2\sqrt{2}$. Although Bell's wave function does not produce a large violation of the CHSH inequality, other states may yet do so.

Detecting Bell-CHSH nonlocality of pure symmetric three-qubit states

K. Anjali, Akshata Shenoy H., H. S. Karthik +3 more

We explore nonlocality of three-qubit pure symmetric states shared between Alice, Bob and Charlie using the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality. We show that the reduced two-qubit states, extracted from an arbitrary pure entangled symmetric three-qubit state, do not violate the CHSH inequality and hence they are CHSH-local . However, when Alice and Bob perform the CHSH test, after conditioning over measurement results of Charlie, nonlocality of the state is revealed. It is also shown that two different classes of three-qubit pure symmetric states, consisting of two and three distinct constituent spinors (qubits) respectively, can be distinguished through the conditional CHSH non-locality test.

Ubiquitous Nonlocal Entanglement with Majorana Zero Modes

Alessandro Romito, Yuval Gefen

Entanglement in quantum mechanics contradicts local realism and is a manifestation of quantum nonlocality. Its presence can be detected through the violation of Bell, or Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequalities. Paradigmatic quantum systems provide examples of both, nonentangled and entangled states. Here, we consider a minimal complexity setup consisting of six Majorana zero modes. We find that any allowed state in the degenerate Majorana space is nonlocally entangled. We show how to measure (with available techniques) the CHSH-violating correlations using either intermediate strength or weak measurement protocols.
