Threshold bounds for noisy bipartite states

Abstract

For a nonseparable bipartite quantum state violating the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) inequality, we evaluate amounts of noise breaking the quantum character of its statistical correlations under any generalized quantum measurements of Alice and Bob. Expressed in terms of the reduced states, these new threshold bounds can be easily calculated for any concrete bipartite state. A noisy bipartite state, satisfying the extended CHSH inequality and the perfect correlation form of the original Bell inequality for any quantum observables, neither necessarily admits a local hidden variable model nor exhibits the perfect correlation of outcomes whenever the same quantum observable is measured on both 'sides'.

Class of bipartite quantum states satisfying any Bell-type inequality

Elena R. Loubenets

We introduce a bipartite state property sufficient for the validity of a CHSH-form inequality and the perfect correlation form of the original Bell inequality for any bounded quantum observables. A nonseparable state with this property does not necessarily admit a local hidden variable model. 1

Local hidden variable modelling, classicality, quantum separability and the original Bell inequality

Elena R. Loubenets

We introduce a general condition sufficient for the validity of the original Bell inequality (1964) in a local hidden variable (LHV) frame. This condition can be checked experimentally and incorporates only as a particular case the assumption on perfect correlations or anticorrelations usually argued for this inequality in the literature. Specifying this general condition for a quantum bipartite case, we introduce the whole class of bipartite quantum states, separable and nonseparable, that (i) admit an LHV description under any bipartite measurements with two settings per site; (ii) do not necessarily exhibit perfect correlations and may even have a negative correlation function if the same quantum observable is measured at both sites, but (iii) satisfy the ‘perfect correlation’ version of the original Bell inequality for any three bounded quantum observables A 1 , A 2 = B 1 , B 2 at sites ‘ A ’ and ‘ B ’, respectively. Analysing the validity of this general LHV condition under classical and quantum correlation scenarios with the same physical context, we stress that, unlike the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt inequality, the original Bell inequality distinguishes between classicality and quantum separability.

Generalized Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequalities maximally violated by higher-dimensional systems

Tamás Vértesi, Károly F. Pál

Imagine two parties, Alice and Bob, who share an entangled quantum state. A well-established result that if Alice performs a two-outcome measurement on the portion of the state in her possession and Bob does likewise, they are able to produce correlations that cannot be reproduced by any classical theory. The allowed classical correlations can be expressed quantitatively by the Bell inequalities. Here we propose new families of Bell inequalities, as a generalization of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality and show that the maximum violation of these Bell inequalities allowed by quantum theory cannot be attained by a bipartite quantum system having support on a qubit at each site.

High-spin measurements in an arbitrary two-qudit state

Elena R. Loubenets, Louis Hanotel

Abstract Violation of the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) inequality by a bipartite quantum state is now used in many quantum applications. However, the explicit analytical expression for the maximal value of the CHSH expectation under local Alice and Bob spin-s measurements is still known only for s = 1 / 2 . In the present article, for an arbitrary state of two spin-s qudits, each of dimension d = 2 s + 1 ⩾ 2 , we introduce the notion of the spin-s correlation matrix, which has dimension 3 × 3 for all s ⩾ 1 2 ; establish its relation to the general correlation ( d 2 − 1 ) × ( d 2 − 1 ) matrix of this state within the generalized Pauli representation and derive in terms of the spin-s correlation matrix the explicit analytical expression for the maximal value of the CHSH expectation under local Alice and Bob spin-s measurements in this state. Specifying this general expression for the two-qudit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state, the nonlocal two-qudit Werner state, and some nonseparable pure two-qudit states, we find that, under local Alice and Bob high-spin ( s ⩾ 1 ) measurements in each of these nonseparable states, including the maximally entangled one, the CHSH inequality is not violated. Moreover, unlike the case of spin- 1 / 2 measurements, where each pure nonseparable two-qubit state violates the CHSH inequality and the maximal value of its CHSH expectation increases monotonically with a growth of its entanglement, the situation under high-spin measurements is quite different—for a pure two-qudit state with a higher degree of entanglement, the maximal value of the CHSH expectation turns out to be less than for a pure two-qudit state with lower entanglement and even for a separable one.

General Correlation Functions of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt Inequality for Arbitrarily High-Dimensional Systems

Libin Fu

We generalize the correlation functions of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality to arbitrarily high-dimensional systems. Based on this generalization, we construct the general CHSH inequality for bipartite quantum systems of arbitrarily high dimensionality, which takes the same simple form as CHSH inequality for two dimensions. This inequality is optimal in the same sense as the CHSH inequality for two-dimensional systems, namely, the maximal amount by which the inequality is violated consists of the maximal resistance to noise. We also discuss the physical meaning and general definition of the correlation functions. Furthermore, by giving another specific set of the correlation functions with the same physical meaning, we realize the inequality presented by Collins et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 040404 (2002)]].
