Characterization of maximally entangled two-qubit states via the Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality

Zeqian Chen

Maximally entangled states should maximally violate the Bell inequality. It is proved that all two-qubit states that maximally violate the Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality are exactly Bell states and the states obtained from them by local transformations. The proof is obtained by using the certain algebraic properties that Pauli's matrices satisfy. The argument is extended to the three-qubit system. Since all states obtained by local transformations of a maximally entangled state are equally valid entangled states, we thus give the characterizations of maximally entangled states in both the two-qubit and three-qubit systems in terms of the Bell inequality.

Bell-Klyshko Inequalities to Characterize Maximally Entangled Statesof n Qubits

Zeqian Chen

This Letter presents the first rigorous proof of the conjecture raised by Gisin and Bechmann-Pasquinucci [Phys. Lett. A 246, 1 (1998)]], that the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states of n qubits and the states obtained from them by local unitary transformations are the unique states that maximally violate the Bell-Klyshko inequalities. The proof is obtained by using the certain algebraic properties that Pauli's matrices satisfy and some subtle mathematical techniques. Since all states obtained by local unitary transformations of a maximally entangled state are equally valid entangled states, we thus give a characterization of maximally entangled states of n qubits in terms of the Bell-type inequality.

Maximal Violation of Bell Inequality for Any Given Two-Qubit Pure State

Yang Xiang

In the case of bipartite two-qubit systems, we derive an analytical expression of bound Bell operator for any given pure state. Our result not only manifests some properties of Bell inequality, for example, which may be violated by any pure entangled state and only be maximally violated for a maximally entangled state, but also gives the explicit values of maximal violation for any pure state. Finally we point out that any mixed states which can produce maximal violation of Bell inequality must have a maximal concurrence value.
