Abstract

Motivated by the contributions [Sci. Rep. 6, 39063 (2016)] and [Phys. Rev. A 98, 052114 (2018)], we aim to establish a new method for theoretically checking Bell nonlocality of a bipartite state of systems for any finite dimensional Hilbert spaces and , provided that the operator space has an orthonormal basis consisting of the identity operator and Hermitian unitary operators. Our main result induces a quantum channel transforming a Bell local state as an unsteerable state from A to B whenever the parameters T and satisfy the condition . Thus, when and the image is steerable from Ato B, the original state must be Bell nonlocal. Our result not only reveals a deep connection between EPR steerability and Bell nonlocality but also provides a feasible approach to theoretically prove difficultly verified Bell nonlocality by translating it into easily verified steerability.

Revealing hidden quantum steerability using local filtering operations

Tanumoy Pramanik, Young‐Wook Cho, Sang-Wook Han +3 more

Nonlocal quantum correlation is at the heart of the bizarre nature of quantum physics. While there are various classes of nonlocal quantum correlation, steerability of a quantum state by local measurements provides unique operational features. Here, we theoretically and experimentally investigate the ``hidden'' property of quantum steerability. In particular, we find that there are initially unsteerable states which can reveal the steerability by using local filters on individual quantum systems. It is remarkable that a certain set of local filters is more effective in revealing steerability than Bell nonlocality whereas there exists another set of filters that is more effective in revealing Bell nonlocality than steerability. This result suggests the structural difference between entanglement and steerability. Finally, we present a counterintuitive result that mixed states originating from nonmaximally pure entangled states can have hidden steerability while the mixed state from a maximally pure entangled state fails to show steerability.

Some remarks on Bell non-locality and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering of bipartite states

Huaixin Cao, Zhihua Guo

Bell nonlocality and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering are every important quantum correlations of a composite quantum system. Bell nonlocality of a bipartite state is a quantum correlation demonstrated by some local quantum measurements, while EPR steering is another form of quantum correlations, observed firstly by Schrodinger in the context of famous EPR paradox. In this paper, we give some remarks on Bell nonlocality and EPR steering of bipartite states, including mathematical definitions and characterizations of these two quantum correlations, the convexity and closedness of the set of all Bell local states and the set of all EPR unsteerable states. We also derive a EPR-steering criteria, with which the EPR steerability of the maximally entangled states are checked.

Quantifying Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering and expanding the scope of steerability of the two qubit state

Wu Jun-jun, Shang Jia-qing, Li-zhen Jiang

EPR steering is a form of bipartite quantum correlation that is intermediate between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. It is detected via the violation of steering inequalities, which provide sufficient conditions for the steerability of quantum states. Furthermore, there is a sufficient criterion for guaranteeing that a two-qubit state is unsteerable. But there are some two qubit states that can not determine the steerability of the steering inequality and the sufficient criteria. Here we introduce a way of quantifying this phenomenon and use it to study the steerability of two qubit states. This article recommend a platonic solid measurement schemes. And then discuss the problem, namely expanding the scope of steerable, which guarantees that the state is steerable.

Bell's Nonlocality Can be Tested through Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Steering

Jing‐Ling Chen, Xiang-Jun Ye

Quantum nonlocality has recently been classified into three distinct types: quantum entanglement, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering, and Bell's nonlocality. Experimentally Bell's nonlocality is usually tested by quantum violation of the Clause-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality in the two-qubit system. Bell's nonlocality is the strongest type of nonlocality, also due this reason Bell-test experiments have encountered both the locality loophole and the detection loophole for a very long time. As a weaker nonlocality, EPR steering naturally escapes from the locality loophole and is correspondingly easier to be demonstrated without the detection loophole. In this work, we trigger an extraordinary approach to investigate Bell's nonlocality, which is strongly based on the EPR steering. We present a theorem, showing that for any two-qubit state $τ$, if its mapped state $ρ$ is EPR steerable, then the state $τ$ must be Bell nonlocal. The result not only pinpoints a deep connection between EPR steering and Bell's nonlocality, but also sheds a new light to realize a loophole-free Bell-test experiment (without the CHSH inequality) through the violation of steering inequality.

Steerability criteria based on Heisenberg–Weyl observables

Le-Min Lai, Shunlong Luo

Abstract Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) steering is an intermediate form of nonlocality which interpolates between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. It has been shown that EPR steerable states are fundamental resources for one-sided device-independent quantum information tasks. Nevertheless, distinguishing quantum steerable states from the unsteerable ones in general cases remains a big challenge under active studies. The generalized Bloch representation of density matrices in terms of the Heisenberg observables is a useful tool for analyzing characteristics of quantum systems and plays an important role in quantum information. In this work, the role of this representation in detection of EPR steering is studied. More specifically, based on the correlation matrices of the Heisenberg–Weyl observables, a family of steerability criteria for arbitrary dimensional bipartite systems are proposed. A large class of Hermitian operators, which can conveniently witness steering in some scenarios, are further provided. Finally, these criteria are illustrated through several examples, are compared with some existing ones, and their power and advantages are exhibited in certain cases.

Exploring Multipartite Steering Effect Using Bell Operators

Li‐Yi Hsu, Shoichi Kawamoto

While Bell operators are exploited in detecting Bell nonlocality and entanglement classification, we demonstrate their usefulness in exploring Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering, which represents the quantum correlation intermediate between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. We propose a task function that detects steerability of multi-qubit states in bipartite scenarios. A novel necessary and sufficient steering criterion is based on the superposition of the recursive Bell operators which are often employed for detecting Bell nonlocality. Utilizing the task function we can (i) reveal the one-to-one mapping relation between joint measurability and unsteerability, (ii) geometrically depict and compare the entanglement classification and the steering criteria and propose a geometrical measure, and (iii) compare the EPR steering with Bell nonlocality using an alternative task function. We extend the result to detect EPR steering for multi-qutrit cases and some numerical results are illustrated as examples. Finally, the steering criteria in a star-shaped quantum network is studied to see how the result is applied to a genuine multipartite steering case.
