Nonlocality, entanglement and quantum teleportation for mixed spin-1/2 states

Abstract

The violation of Bell’s inequality in quantum mechanics implies that there exist nonlocality and entanglement. When the density matrix of a composite system cannot be written as a convex combination of the product of the density matrices of its subsystems, we say there exists entanglement. For pure states, the existence of entanglement always leads to the violation of Bell’s inequality. However, in the case of the mixed states, there may be entanglement, but Bell's inequality is not violated and in other words, the nonlocality is not manifested. In addition to Bell's inequality, quantum teleportation is also a manifestation of nonlocality. Quantum teleportation using entangled states is more successful than quantum teleportation with separable states. Therefore, the corresponding fidelity of teleported state with the initial state (in short, the fidelity) of the former is always greater than the fidelity of the latter. In this paper, for Werner's state, we will show that in a range of the related parameter, while the CHSH inequality is violated, the fidelity, which indicates the amount of success of quantum teleportation, is lower than the upper bound of the corresponding fidelity for states that can be simulated with a local hidden variable theory. Meanwhile, we will see that for Gisin's state with hidden nonlocality, filtering, which leads to the appearance of nonlocality and more specifically leads to the violation of the CHSH inequality, also increases the fidelity.

When Does Teleportation Imply Nonlocality

Jonathan Barrett

Adopting an approach similar to that of Zukowski in quant-ph/9912029, we investigate connections between teleportation and nonlocality. We derive a Bell-type inequality pertaining to the teleportation scenario and show that it is violated in the case of teleportation using a perfect singlet. We also investigate teleportation using `Werner states' of the form x P + (1-x) I/4, where P is the projector corresponding to a singlet state and I is the identity. We find that our inequality is violated, implying nonlocality, if x > 1/sqrt(2). In addition, we extend Werner's local hidden variable model to simulation of teleportation with the x = 1/2 Werner state. Thus teleportation using this state does not involve nonlocality even though the fidelity achieved is 3/4 which is greater than the `classical limit' of 2/3. Finally, we comment on a result of Gisin's and offer some philosophical remarks on teleportation and nonlocality generally.

Implications of teleportation for nonlocality

Jonathan Barrett

Adopting an approach similar to that of Zukowski [Phys. Rev. A 62, 032101 (2000)], we investigate connections between teleportation and nonlocality. We derive a Bell-type inequality pertaining to the teleportation scenario and show that it is violated in the case of teleportation using a perfect singlet. We also investigate teleportation using ``Werner states'' of the form $\ensuremath{\alpha}{P}_{s}+(1\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\alpha})I/4,$ where ${P}_{s}$ is the projector corresponding to a singlet state and $I$ is the identity. We find that our inequality is violated, implying nonlocality, if $\ensuremath{\alpha}>1/\sqrt{2}.$ In addition, we extend Werner's local hidden variable model to simulation of teleportation with the $\ensuremath{\alpha}=\frac{1}{2}$ Werner state. Thus teleportation using this state does not involve nonlocality even though the fidelity achieved is $\frac{3}{4},$ which is greater than the ``classical limit'' of $\frac{2}{3}.$ Finally, we comment on a result of Gisin's and offer some philosophical remarks on teleportation and nonlocality generally.

Teleportation via maximally and non-maximally entangled mixed states

Satyabrata Adhikari, A. S. Majumdar, Sovik Roy +2 more

We study the efficiency of two-qubit mixed entangled states as resources for quantum teleportation. We first consider two maximally entangled mixed states, viz., the Werner state\cite{werner}, and a class of states introduced by Munro {\it et al.} \cite{munro}. We show that the Werner state when used as teleportation channel, gives rise to better average teleportation fidelity compared to the latter class of states for any finite value of mixedness. We then introduce a non-maximally entangled mixed state obtained as a convex combination of a two-qubit entangled mixed state and a two-qubit separable mixed state. It is shown that such a teleportation channel can outperform another non-maximally entangled channel, viz., the Werner derivative for a certain range of mixedness. Further, there exists a range of parameter values where the former state satisfies a Bell-CHSH type inequality and still performs better as a teleportation channel compared to the Werner derivative even though the latter violates the inequality.

Exploring quantum properties of bipartite mixed states under coherent and incoherent basis

Sovik Roy, Anushree Bhattacharjee, Chandrashekar Radhakrishnan +2 more

Quantum coherence and quantum entanglement are two different manifestations of the superposition principle. In this paper, we show that the right choice of basis to be used to estimate coherence is the separable basis. The quantum coherence estimated using the Bell basis does not represent the coherence in the system, since there is a coherence in the system due to the choice of the basis states. We first compute the entanglement and quantum coherence in the two-qubit mixed states prepared using the Bell states and one of the states from the computational basis. The quantum coherence is estimated using the [Formula: see text]-norm of coherence, the entanglement is measured using the concurrence and the mixedness is measured using the linear entropy. Then we estimate these quantities in the Bell basis and establish that coherence should be measured only in separable basis, whereas entanglement and mixedness can be measured in any basis. We then calculate the teleportation fidelity of these mixed states and find the regions where the states have a fidelity greater than the classical teleportation fidelity. We also examine the violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality to verify the quantum nonlocal correlations in the system. The estimation of the above-mentioned quantum correlations, teleportation fidelity and the verification of Bell-CHSH inequality is also done for bipartite states obtained from the tripartite systems by the tracing out of one of their qubits. We find that for some of these states’ teleportation is possible even when the Bell-CHSH inequality is not violated, signifying that nonlocality is not a necessary condition for quantum teleportation.

Nonlocality activation using local filtering operations based on CGLMP inequality

Asmita Kumari

Abstract Entanglement is necessary but not sufficient to demonstrate nonlocality as there exist local entangled states which do not violate any Bell inequality. In recent years, the activation of nonlocality (known as hidden nonlocality) by using local filtering operations has gained considerable interest. In the original proposal of Popescu [Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 2619 (1995)] the hidden nonlocality was demonstrated for the Werner class of states in d ≥ 5. In this paper, we demonstrate the hidden nonlocality for a class of mixed entangled states (convex mixture of a pure state and color noise) in an arbitrary d-dimensional system using suitable local filtering operations. For our demonstration, we consider the quantum violation of Collins-Linden-Gisin-Masser-Popescu (CGLMP) inequality which has hitherto not been considered for this purpose. We show that when the pure state in the aforementioned mixed entangled state is a maximally entangled state, the range of the mixing parameter for revealing hidden nonlocality increases with increasing the dimension of the system. Importantly, we find that for d ≥ 8, hidden non-locality can be revealed for the whole range of mixing parameter. Further, by considering another pure state, the maximally CGLMP-violating state, we demonstrate the activation of nonlocality by using the same local filtering operation. We have also shown the activation of quantum fidelity for mixed entangled states using the same local filtering operator.
