    Insights into Quantum Contextuality and Bell Nonclassicality: A Study on Random Pure Two-Qubit Systems

    Full text link
    We explore the relationship between Kochen-Specker quantum contextuality and Bell-nonclassicality for ensembles of two-qubit pure states. We present a comparative analysis showing that the violation of a noncontextuality inequality on a given quantum state reverberates on the Bell-nonclassicality of the considered state. In particular, we use suitable inequalities that are experimentally testable to detect quantum contextuality and nonlocality for systems in a Hilbert space of dimension d=4d=4. While contextuality can be assessed on different degrees of freedom of the same particle, the violation of local realism requires parties spatially separated.Comment: Submitted to Int. J. Theor.

    Advantages of quantum communication revealed by the reexamination of hyperbit theory limitations

    Full text link
    Paw{\l}owski and Winter's hyperbit theory, proposed in 2012, presented itself as an alternative to quantum theory, suggesting novel ways of redefining entanglement and classical communication paradigms. This research undertakes a meticulous reevaluation of hyperbit theory, uncovering significant operational constraints that question its equivalence with quantum mechanics. Crucially, the supposition that hyperbit theory and quantum theory are equivalent relies on the receiver having unattainable additional knowledge about the sender's laboratory, indicating that the work by Pawlowski and Winter is incorrect. This study accentuates the constraints of hyperbits in information processing and sheds light on the superiority of quantum communication, thereby advancing the investigation at the intersection of classical and quantum communication

    Family of multipartite separability criteria based on a correlation tensor

    No full text
    A family of separability criteria based on correlation matrix (tensor) is provided. Interestingly, it unifies several criteria known before like, e.g., computable cross-norm or realignment criterion (CNNR), de Vicente criterion, and derived recently separability criterion based on symmetric informationally complete positive operator valued measures (SIC POVMs). It should be stressed that, unlike the well-known correlation matrix criterion or criterion based on local uncertainty relations, our criteria are linear in the density operator and hence one may find unexplored classes of entanglement witnesses and positive maps. Interestingly, there is a natural generalization to multipartite scenario using multipartite correlation matrix. We illustrate the detection power of the above criteria on several well-known examples of quantum states

    Enhanced realignment criterion vs linear entanglement witnesses

    No full text
    It is shown that the enhanced (nonlinear) realignment criterion is equivalent to the family of linear criteria based on correlation tensor. These criteria generalize the original (linear) realignment criterium and give rise to the family of entanglement witnesses. An appropriate limiting procedure is proposed which leads to a novel class of witnesses which are as powerful as the enhanced realignment criterion

    On the Fidelity Robustness of CHSH–Bell Inequality via Filtered Random States

    Full text link
    The theorem developed by John Bell constituted the starting point of a revolution that translated a philosophical question about the nature of reality into the broad and intense field of research of the quantum information technologies. We focus on a system of two qubits prepared in a random, mixed state, and we study the typical behavior of their nonlocality via the CHSH–Bell inequality. Afterward, motivated by the necessity of accounting for inefficiency in the state preparation, we address to what extent states close enough to one with a high degree of nonclassicality can violate local realism with a previously chosen experimental setup

    Optimality of generalized Choi maps in M3M_3

    No full text
    A family of linear positive maps in the algebra of 3×33 \times 3 complex matrices proposed recently in Bera et al. arXiv:2212.03807 is further analyzed. It provides a generalization of a seminal Choi nondecomposable extremal map in M3M_3. We investigate when generalized Choi maps are optimal, i.e. cannot be represented as a sum of positive and completely positive maps. This property is weaker than extremality, however, it turns out that it plays a key role in detecting quantum entanglement
