Abstract

In Kaszlikowski et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 4418 (2000)], it has been shown numerically that the violation of local realism for two maximally entangled N-dimensional $(3<~N)$ quantum objects is stronger than for two maximally entangled qubits and grows with N. In this paper, we present the analytical proof of this fact for $N=3.$

Violations of Local Realism by Two Entangled N -Dimensional Systems Are Stronger than for Two Qubits

Dagomir Kaszlikowski, P. Gnaciński, Marek Żukowski +2 more

Tests of local realism versus quantum mechanics based on Bell's inequality employ two entangled qubits. We investigate the general case of two entangled quantum systems defined in N-dimensional Hilbert spaces, or " quNits." Via a numerical linear optimization method we show that violations of local realism are stronger for two maximally entangled quNits ( 3</=N</=9) than for two qubits and that they increase with N. The two quNit measurements can be experimentally realized using entangled photons and unbiased multiport beam splitters.

Three-qutrit correlations violate local realism more strongly than those of three qubits

Dagomir Kaszlikowski, Darwin Gosal, Alexander Ling +3 more

We present numerical data showing that three-qutrit correlations for a pure state, which is not maximally entangled, violate local realism more strongly than three-qubit correlations. The strength of violation is measured by the minimal amount of noise that must be admixed to the system so that the noisy correlations have a local and realistic model.

sComment on 'Local-realism violations in two-particle interferometry'

Jose Luis Cereceda

In a recent article [Phys. Rev. A 53, R1927 (1996)] Wu et al. give a proof of nonlocality for the maximally entangled state of two particles without using inequalities. Here we point out that in order for their argument to go through it is necessary to consider a minimum total of six dimensions in Hilbert space. Indeed, the above argument is found to fail whenever the dimensionality of the product Hilbert space is reduced to four. The explanation for this failure is provided by the fact according to which no direct contradiction between the quantum-mechanical and locally realistic predictions can arise for any fraction of an ensemble of 2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}2 systems configured in the maximally entangled state.

Violations of local realism by two entangled quNits

Daniel Collins, Sandu Popescu

Results obtained in two recent papers, (Kaszlikowski D, Gnacinski P, Zukowski M, Miklaszewski W and Zeilinger A 2000 Phys. Rev. Lett. 85 4418 and Durt T, Kaszlikowski D and Zukowski M 2001 Preprint quant-ph/0101084) seem to indicate that the nonlocal character of the correlations between the outcomes of measurements performed on entangled systems separated in space is not robust in the presence of noise. This is surprising, since entanglement itself is robust. Here we revisit this problem and argue that the class of gedanken experiments considered in the two recent papers listed above is too restrictive. By considering a more general class, involving sequences of measurements, we prove that the nonlocal correlations are in fact robust.

Using a quantum-optical setting, we demonstrate local-realism violation for a maximally entangled state of two particles without using inequalities. Our proof can be generalized to all arbitrary entangled states for two particles.
