Bell inequalities and linear entropy. Comment on the paper of E. Santos "Entropy inequalities and Bell inequalities fro two-qubit systems"

Published Sep 15, 2004• 0 citations

Abstract

It is shown that even if the linear entropy of mixed two-qubit state is not smaller then 0.457, Bell - CHSH inequalities can be violated. This contradicts the result obtained in the paper of E. Santos [1].

Entanglement detection: Linear entropy versus Bell-CHSH inequality

Satyabrata Adhikari

The relation between the violation of the Bell-CHSH inequalities and entanglement properties of quantum states is not clear so one may consider the mixedness of the system to understand the entanglement properties better than the Bell-CHSH inequality. In this respect, we prove that if the mixedness of the state measured by the linear entropy is less than 2/3 but strictly greater than zero then the two qubit states are entangled. But if the linear entropy is greater or equal to 2/3 then the state may or may not be entangled. Further we show that our entanglement criterion detects larger set of entangled state than Bell-CHSH inequality and Santos's entropic criterion [Phys. Rev. A 69, 022305 (2004)]. Lastly we illustrate our result by citing few examples.

Entropy inequalities and Bell inequalities for two-qubit systems

Emilio Santos

Sufficient conditions for the nonviolation of the Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequalities in a mixed state of a two-qubit system are: (1) the linear entropy of the state is not smaller than 0.457; (2) the sum of the conditional linear entropies is not smaller than -0.086; (3) the von Neumann entropy is not smaller than 0.833; and (4) the sum of the conditional von Neumann entropies is not smaller than 0.280.

Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt violation and the entropy-concurrence plane

Łukasz Derkacz, Lech Jakóbczyk

We characterize violation of Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequalities for mixed two-qubit states by their mixedness and entanglement. The class of states that have maximum degree of CHSH violation for a given linear entropy is also constructed.

Linear entropy and Bell inequalities

Emilio Santos, Miguel Ferrero

For mixed states of a pair of spin-1/2 particles, the positivity of the sum of the conditional linear entropies is a sufficient condition for the nonviolation of the Bell-CHSH (Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt) inequalities.

Entanglement estimation from Bell inequality violation

Karol Bartkiewicz, Bohdan Horst, Karel Lemr +1 more

It is well known that the violation of Bell's inequality in the form given by Clauser, Horne, Shimony, and Holt (CHSH) in two-qubit systems requires entanglement, but not vice versa, i.e., there are entangled states which do not violate the CHSH inequality. Here we compare some standard entanglement measures with violations of the CHSH inequality (as given by the Horodecki measure) for two-qubit states generated by Monte Carlo simulations. We describe states that have extremal entanglement according to the negativity, concurrence, and relative entropy of entanglement for a given value of the CHSH violation. We explicitly find these extremal states by applying the generalized method of Lagrange multipliers based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions. The found minimal and maximal states define the range of entanglement accessible for any two-qubit states that violate the CHSH inequality by the same amount. We also find extremal states for the concurrence versus negativity by considering only such states which do not violate the CHSH inequality. Furthermore, we describe an experimentally efficient linear-optical method to determine the highest Horodecki degree of the CHSH violation for arbitrary mixed states of two polarization qubits. By assuming to have access simultaneously to two copies of the states, our method requires only six discrete measurement settings instead of nine settings, which are usually considered.

ENTANGLEMENT, PURITY AND VIOLATION OF BELL INEQUALITY

Dong-Ling Deng, Jing‐Ling Chen

We use the Clauser–Horne–Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality to investigate the relationship among entanglement, purity and violation of the Bell inequality. On the one hand, we show numerically that all two-dimensional (qubit) states, whose entanglement of formation (EOF) is larger than [Formula: see text], violate the CHSH inequality. On the other hand, any state with purity smaller than 0.5562 may not violate it.
