On Infinite EPR-like Correlations

EPR and Nonlocality: Understood in terms of Kuramoto Synchronisation

A new way of understanding the non local correlation effects observed in the 'Twin Photon' EPR experiment is presented. The theory is based on a vector version of the Kuramoto sychronisation for coupled non linear oscillators. EPR correlation is obtained without the use of superluminal signals. Bell's inequality is used to confirm that the local theory developed can still violate the inequality resolving the non local nature of the correlation.

The EPR correlations and the chameleon effect

We describe an experiment in which two non communicating computers, starting from a common input in the form of sequences of pseudo--random numbers in the interval $[0,2π]$, and computing deterministic $\{\pm 1\}$--valued functions, chosen at random and independently, produce sequences of numbers whose correlations coincide with the EPR correlations and therefore violate Bell's inequality. The experiment is the practical implementation of a mathematical model of a classical, deterministic system whose initial state is chosen at random from its state space, with a known initial probability dist…

Squeezing and EPR correlation in the Mirrorless Optical Parametric Oscillator

This work analyses the quantum properties of counter-propagating twin beams generated by a Mirrorless Optical Parametric Oscillator in the continuous variable regime. Despite the lack of the filtering effect of a cavity, we show that in the vicinity of its threshold it may generate high levels of narrowband squeezing and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlation, completely comparable to what can be obtained in standard optical parametric oscillators.

Local models and EPR quantum correlations

A model for two entangled systems in an EPR setting is shown to reproduce the quantum-mechanical outcomes and expectation values. Each system is represented by a small sphere containing a point-like particle embedded in a field. A quantum state appears as an equivalence class of several possible particle-field configurations. Contrarily to Bell-type hidden variables models, the fields account for the non-commutative aspects of the measurements and deny the simultaneous reality of incompatible physical quantities, thereby allowing to escape EPR's ``completeness or locality'' dilemma.

EPR-B correlations: a physically tenable local-real model

We propose a classical, i.e., local-real physical model of processes underlying EPR experiments. The model leads to the prediction, that the visibility of the output signal will exhibit increasing variation as the coincidence window is increased, thus providing a testable criteria for its validity. If it can be sustained, this model undermines the claim that Nature has a fundamentally nonlocal feature or that irreal entities are required by quantum theory.

EPR correlations and EPW distributions revisited

It is shown that Bell's proof of violation of local realism in phase space is incorrect. Using Bell's approach, a violation can be derived also for nonnegative Wigner distributions. The error is found to lie in the use of an unnormalizable Wigner function.

Some remarks on Bell non-locality and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering of bipartite states

Bell nonlocality and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering are every important quantum correlations of a composite quantum system. Bell nonlocality of a bipartite state is a quantum correlation demonstrated by some local quantum measurements, while EPR steering is another form of quantum correlations, observed firstly by Schrodinger in the context of famous EPR paradox. In this paper, we give some remarks on Bell nonlocality and EPR steering of bipartite states, including mathematical definitions and characterizations of these two quantum correlations, the convexity and closedness of the set …

Non-existence of invariant EPR correlation for two qudits, d>2

The two qubit (spin 1/2) singlet state has invariant perfect EPR correlations: if two observers measure {\em any} identical observables the results are always perfectly (anti-)correlated. We show that no such correlations exists in $d\otimes d$ pure or mixed bipartite quantum states if $d\geq3$. This points that two qubit singlets are high-quality quantum information carriers in long distance transmission: their correlations are unaffected by identical random unitary transformations of both qubits. Pairs of entangled qu$d$its, $d>2$, do not have this property. Thus, qu$d$it properties should b…

An EPR local theory with a local correlation

A local theory with a local correlation is proposed to give an explanation for the contractions in the GHZ-like proofs for Bell's theorem and the violation to Bell's inequality. It agrees with the experimental predictions for the GHZ state of three entangled spins, the Bell state of two entangled spins and one spin state. It is found that the contradiction in the GHZ-like proofs and the violation to Bell's inequality can be attributed to the local correlation.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) Correlations and Superluminal Interactions

The possible connection between EPR correlations and superluminal interactions, as suggested by Bell and Bohm, is discussed using simple and palpable arguments: (a) It is shown how an experiment based on time-like events can allow us to answer the question "Can a measurement performed on one of the photons of an entangled pair change the state of the other?" (b) The theorem on superluminal finite-speed causal influences and superluminal signaling, introduced by Scarani and Gisin, is reexamined. (c) It is shown how faster-than-light interactions and Lorentz transformations might peacefully coex…

Relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Correlations in curved spacetime via Fermi-Walker Transport

We present a geometric description to study the relativistic EPR correlations in curved spacetime background given by the application of the Fermi-Walker transport in the relativistic EPR states and we show that its result has the same effect as the applications of successive infinitesimal Lorentz boosts in the relativistic EPR states. We also show that the expression for the Bell inequality due to the Fermi-Walker transport is equivalent to the expression demonstrated by Terashima and Ueda \cite{TU2}, where the degree of violation of the Bell inequality is dependent of the angle of the Wigner…

Lorentz-covariant reduced spin density matrix and EPR-Bohm correlations

We show that it is possible to define a Lorentz-covariant reduced spin density matrix for massive particles. Such a matrix allows one to calculate the mean values of observables connected with spin measurements (average polarizations). Moreover, it contains not only information about polarization of the particle but also information about its average kinematical state. We also use our formalism to calculate the correlation function in the Einstein--Podolsky--Rosen--Bohm type experiment with massive relativistic particles.

Randomness, Nonlocality and information in entagled correlations

It is shown that the Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) correlations for arbitrary spin-s and the Greenberger, Horne and Zeilinger (GHZ) correlations for three particles can be described by nonlocal joint and conditional quantum probabilities. The nonlocality of these probabilities makes the Bell's inequalities void. A description that exhibits the relation between the randomness and the nonlocality of entangled correlations is introduced. Entangled EPR and GHZ correlations are studied using the Gibbs-Shannon entropy. The nonlocal character of the EPR correlations is tested using the informati…

Nonlocal single particle correlations and EPR state in the double-slit experiment

Quantum correlations of observables for two particle states have demonstrated the nonlocal character of the quantum mechanics. However nonlocality can be exhibited even for noncommuting observables of a single particle system. In this paper we show nonlocality of position-momentum correlations of a single particle in the double-slit experiment modeled by an initially correlated Gaussian wavepacket. The positivity or negativity of the Wigner function for the state of the particle at the detection screen is related with the $σ_{xp}$ covariances. A Bell's inequality is constructed from the Wigner…

Entanglement, EPR correlations and mesoscopic quantum superposition by the high-gain quantum injected parametric amplification

We investigate the multiparticle quantum superposition and the persistence of multipartite entanglement of the quantum superposition generated by the quantum injected high-gain optical parametric amplification of a single photon. The physical configuration based on the optimal universal quantum cloning has been adopted to investigate how the entanglement and the quantum coherence of the system persists for large values of the nonlinear parametric gain g.

Uniqueness of the EPR--chemeleon model

A classical deterministic, reversible dynamical systems, reproducing the Einstein--Podolsky--Rosen (EPR) correlations in full respect of causality and locality and without the introduction of any ad hoc selection procedure, was constructed in the paper [AIR02]. In the present paper we prove that the above mentioned model is unique (see Theorem (2) in the sense that any local causal probability measure which reproduces the EPR correlations must coincide, under natural and generic assumptions, with the one constructed in [AIR02]. [AIR02] L. Accardi, K. Imafuku and M. Regoli, "ON THE EPR--CHAMELE…

The von Neumann Entropy of EPR Spin Correlation for the Relativistic Pairs

Variation of the von Neumann entropy by the Lorentz transformation is discussed. Taking the spin-singlet state in the center of mass frame, the von Neumann entropy in the laboratory frame is calculated from the reduced density matrix obtained by taking the trace over 4-momentum after the Lorentz transformation. As the model to discuss the EPR spin correlation, it is supposed that one parent particle splits into a superposition state of various pair states in various directions. Computing the von Neumann entropy and the Shannon entropy, we have shown a global behavior of the entropy to see a re…

Local realist (but contextual) derivation of the EPR-Bohm correlations

The probabilistic structure of quantum mechanics is investigated in the frequency framework. Such an approach can be interpreted as a contextual approach to quantum probabilities. By using rather complicated frequency calculations we reproduce the EPR-Bohm correlation function which is typically derived by using the calculus of probabilities in a Hilbert space. Our frequency probabilistic model of the EPR-Bohm experiment is a realist model -- physical observables are considered as objective properties of physical systems. It is also local -- a measurement over one part of a composite system do…

From EPR, Schrödinger paradox to nonlocality based on perfect correlation

We give a conceptually simple proof of nonlocality using only the perfect correlations between results of measurements on distant systems discussed by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen---correlations that EPR thought proved the incompleteness of quantum mechanics. Our argument relies on an extension of EPR by Schrödinger.

Tachyons and EPR correlations

No causal paradoxes will occur if a preferred reference frame for tachyons propagation is assumed, and results of Bell's inequality experiments may be well explained without using any telepathyc effect. We can read G. Faraci's and others' results, Lettere al Nuovo Cimento, 15, 607-611 (1974), as a first quantitive indication on the tachyons preferred reference frame velocity with respect to the Earth, as well as on the tachyons velocity in their preferred reference frame. In order to experimentally prove this assumption's validity, Aspect-like experiments should be slightly modified.

Causation, Measurement Relevance and No-conspiracy in EPR

In this paper I assess the adequacy of no-conspiracy conditions employed in the usual derivations of the Bell inequality in the context of EPR correlations. First, I look at the EPR correlations from a purely phenomenological point of view and claim that common cause explanations of these cannot be ruled out. I argue that an appropriate common cause explanation requires that no-conspiracy conditions are re-interpreted as mere common cause-measurement independence conditions. In the right circumstances then, violations of measurement independence need not entail any kind of conspiracy (nor back…

Higher-order EPR correlations and inseparability conditions for continuous variables

We derive two types of sets of higher-order conditions for bipartite entanglement in terms of continuous variables. One corresponds to an extension of the well-known Duan inequalities from second to higher moments describing a kind of higher-order Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlations. Only the second type, however, expressed by powers of the mode operators leads to tight conditions with a hierarchical structure. We start with a minimization problem for the single-partite case and, using the results obtained, establish relevant inequalities for higher-order moments satisfied by all bipart…

Effects of mismatched transmissions on two-mode squeezing and EPR correlations with a slow light medium

We theoretically discuss the preservation of squeezing and continuous variable entanglement of two mode squeezed light when the two modes are subjected to unequal transmission. One of the modes is transmitted through a slow light medium while the other is sent through an optical fiber of unit transmission. Balanced homodyne detection is used to check the presence of squeezing. It is found that loss of squeezing occurs when the mismatch in the transmission of the two modes is greater than 40% while near ideal squeezing is preserved when the transmissions are equal. We also discuss the effect of…

Chameleon effect, the range of values hypothesis and reproducing the EPR-Bohm correlations

We present a detailed analysis of assumptions that J. Bell used to show that local realism contradicts QM. We find that Bell's viewpoint on realism is nonphysical, because it implicitly assume that observed physical variables coincides with ontic variables (i.e., these variables before measurement). The real physical process of measurement is a process of dynamical interaction between a system and a measurement device. Therefore one should check the adequacy of QM not to ``Bell's realism,'' but to adaptive realism (chameleon realism). Dropping Bell's assumption we are able to construct a natur…

Large scale EPR correlations and cosmic gravitational waves

We study how quantum correlations survive at large scales in spite of their exposition to stochastic backgrounds of gravitational waves. We consider Einstein-Podolski-Rosen (EPR) correlations built up on the polarizations of photon pairs and evaluate how they are affected by the cosmic gravitational wave background (CGWB). We evaluate the quantum decoherence of the EPR correlations in terms of a reduction of the violation of the Bell inequality as written by Clauser, Horne, Shimony and Holt (CHSH). We show that this decoherence remains small and that EPR correlations can in principle survive u…

EPR Steering Inequalities from Entropic Uncertainty Relations

We use entropic uncertainty relations to formulate inequalities that witness Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering correlations in diverse quantum systems. We then use these inequalities to formulate symmetric EPR-steering inequalities using the mutual information. We explore the differing natures of the correlations captured by one-way and symmetric steering inequalities, and examine the possibility of exclusive one-way steerability in two-qubit states. Furthermore, we show that steering inequalities can be extended to generalized positive operator valued measures (POVMs), and we also derive…

An open quantum system approach to EPR correlations in K0-K0 system

We find the time evolution of the system of two non-interacting unstable particles, distinguishable as well as identical ones, in arbitrary reference frame having only the Kraus operators governing the evolution of its components in the rest frame. We than calculate in the rigorous way Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen quantum correlation functions for K0-K0 system in the singlet state taking into account CP-violation and decoherence and show that the results are exactly the same despite the fact we treat kaons as distinguishable or identical particles which means that the statistics of the particles pl…

Can EPR correlations be driven by an effective wormhole?

We consider the two-particle wave function of an EPR system given by a two dimensional relativistic scalar field model. The Bohm-de Broglie interpretation is applied and the quantum potential is viewed as modifying the Minkowski geometry. In such a way singularities appear in the metric, opening the possibility, following Holland, of interpreting the EPR correlations as originated by a wormhole effective geometry, through which physical signals can propagate.

Effect of Decoherence on Bell's Inequality for an EPR Pair

According to Bell's theorem, the degree of correlation between spatially separated measurements on a quantum system is limited by certain inequalities if one assumes the condition of locality. Quantum mechanics predicts that this limit can be exceeded, making it nonlocal. We analyse the effect of an environment modelled by a fluctuating magnetic field on the quantum correlations in an EPR singlet as seen in the Bell inequality. We show that in an EPR setup, the system goes from the usual 'violation' of Bell inequality to a 'non-violation' for times larger than a characteristic time scale which…

A single cold atom as efficient stationary source of EPR-entangled light

The Stokes and anti-Stokes components of the spectrum of resonance fluorescence of a single trapped atom, which originate from the mechanical coupling between the scattered photons and the quantized motion of the atomic center of mass, exhibit quantum correlations which are of two-mode-squeezing type. We study and demonstrate the build-up of such correlations in a specific setup, which is experimentally accessible, and where the atom acts as efficient and continuous source of EPR-entangled, two-mode squeezed light.

Null-Result Detection and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) Correlations

It follows from Bell's theorem and quantum mechanics that the detection of a particle of an entangled pair can (somehow) "force" the other distant particle of the pair into a well-defined state (which is equivalente to a reduction of the state vector): no property previously shared by the particles can explain the predicted correlations. This result has been corroborated by experiment. However, it has not been experimantally proved-and it is far from obvious-that the absence of detection, as in null-result (NR) experiments could have the very same effect. In this paper a way to try to bridge t…

Simulatings POVMs on EPR pairs with six bits of expected communication

We present a classical protocol for simulating correlations obtained by bipartite POVMs on an EPR pair. The protocol uses shared random variables (also known as local hidden variables) augmented by six bits of expected communication.

Unified Treatment of EPR and Bell Arguments in Algebraic Quantum Field Theory

A conjecture concerning vacuum correlations in axiomatic quantum field theory is proved. It is shown that this result can be applied both in the context of EPR-type experiments and Bell-type experiments.

Four-photon interference: a realizable experiment to demonstrate violation of EPR postulates for perfect correlations

Bell's theorem reveals contradictions between the predictions of quantum mechanics and the EPR postulates for a pair of particles only in situations involving imperfect statistical correlations. However, with three or more particles, contradictions emerge even for perfect correlations. We describe an experiment which can be realized in the laboratory, using four-photon entangled states generated by parametric down-conversion, to demonstrate this contradiction at the level of perfect correlations.

EPR-entangled Bose-Einstein condensates in state-dependent potentials: a dynamical study

We study generation of non-local correlations by atomic interactions in a pair of bi-modal Bose-Einstein Condensates in state-dependent potentials including spatial dynamics. The wave-functions of the four components are described by combining a Fock state expansion with a time-dependent Hartree-Fock Ansatz, so that both the spatial dynamics and the local and non-local quantum correlations are accounted for. We find that despite the spatial dynamics, our protocole generates enough non-local entanglement to perform an EPR steering experiment with two spatially separated con-densates of a few th…

Lorentz symmetry breaking effects on relativistic EPR correlations

Lorentz symmetry breaking effects on relativistic EPR (Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen) correlations are discussed. From the modified Maxwell theory coupled to gravity, we establish a possible scenario of the Lorentz symmetry violation and write an effective metric for the Minkowski spacetime. Then, we obtain the Wigner rotation angle via the Fermi-Walker transport of spinors and consider the WKB ((Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) approximation in order to study the influence of Lorentz symmetry breaking effects on the relativistic EPR correlations.

There is no spooky action-at-a-distance in quantum correlations: Resolution of the EPR nonlocality puzzle

The long-standing puzzle of the nonlocal Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations is resolved. The correct quantum mechanical correlations arise for the case of entangled particles when strict locality is assumed for the probability amplitudes instead of locality for probabilities. Locality of amplitudes implies that measurement on one particle does not collapse the companion particle to a definite state.

The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox and Entanglement 2: Application to Proof of Security for Continuous Variable Quantum Cryptography

In a previous paper certain measurable criteria have been derived, that are sufficient to demonstrate the existence of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlations for measurements with continuous variable outcomes. Here it is shown how such EPR criteria, which do not demand perfect EPR correlations, can be used to prove the extent of security for continuous variable quantum cryptographic schemes (in analogy to that proposed by Ekert) where Alice and Bob hope to construct a secure sequence of values from measurements performed on continuous-variable EPR-correlated fields sent from a distant sour…

No nonlocal advantage of quantum coherence beyond quantum instrumentality

Recently, it was shown that quantum steerability is stronger than the bound set by the instrumental causal network. This implies, quantum instrumentality cannot simulate EPR-nonlocal correlations completely. In contrast, here we show that quantum instrumentality can indeed simulate EPR correlations completely and uniquely if viewed from the perspective of NAQC. Implication of our result is that the entire set of EPR-correlations can be explained by the LHS model in the instrumental causal background if viewed from the perspective of NAQC.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Correlations of Ultracold Atomic Gases

Einstein, Podolsky & Rosen (EPR) pointed out that correlations induced between quantum objects will persist after these objects have ceased to interact. Consequently, their joint continuous variables (CV), e.g., the difference of their positions and the sum of their momenta, may be specified, regardless of their distance, with arbitrary precision. EPR correlations give rise to two fundamental notions: {\em nonlocal ``steering''} of the quantum state of one object by measuring the other, and inseparability ({\em entanglement}) of their quantum states. EPR entanglement is a resource of quantum i…

Biased EPR entanglement and its application to teleportation

We consider pure continuous variable entanglement with non-equal correlations between orthogonal quadratures. We introduce a simple protocol which equates these correlations and in the process transforms the entanglement onto a state with the minimum allowed number of photons. As an example we show that our protocol transforms, through unitary local operations, a single squeezed beam split on a beam splitter into the same entanglement that is produced when two squeezed beams are mixed orthogonally. We demonstrate that this technique can in principle facilitate perfect teleportation utilising o…

EPR Steering inequalities with Communication Assistance

In this paper, we investigate the communication cost of reproducing Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering correlations arising from bipartite quantum systems. We characterize the set of bipartite quantum states which admits a local hidden state model augmented with $c$ bits of classical communication from an untrusted party (Alice) to a trusted party (Bob). In case of one bit of information ($c=1$), we show that this set has a nontrivial intersection with the sets admitting a local hidden state and a local hidden variables model for projective measurements. On the other hand, we find that an …

Relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlation and Bell's inequality

We formulate the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) gedankenexperiment within the framework of relativistic quantum theory to analyze a situation in which measurements are performed by moving observers. We point out that under certain conditions the perfect anti-correlation of an EPR pair of spins in the same direction is deteriorated in the moving observers' frame due to the Wigner rotation, and show that the degree of the violation of Bell's inequality prima facie decreases with increasing the velocity of the observers if the directions of the measurement are fixed. However, this does not imply a…

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-like correlation on a coherent-state basis and inseparability of two-mode Gaussian states

The strange property of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlation between two remote physical systems is a primitive object on the study of quantum entanglement. In order to understand the entanglement in canonical continuous-variable systems, a pair of the EPR-like uncertainties is an essential tool. Here, we consider a normalized pair of the EPR-like uncertainties and introduce a state-overlap to a classically correlated mixture of coherent states. The separable condition associated with this state-overlap determines the strength of the EPR-like correlation on a coherent-state basis in o…

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations and Bell correlations in the simplest scenario

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering is an intermediate type of quantum nonlocality which sits between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. A set of correlations is Bell nonlocal if it does not admit a local hidden variable (LHV) model, while it is EPR nonlocal if it does not admit a local hidden variable-local hidden state (LHV-LHS) model. It is interesting to know what states can generate EPR-nonlocal correlations in the simplest nontrivial scenario, that is, two projective measurements for each party sharing a two-qubit state. Here we show that a two-qubit state can generate EPR-nonlocal fu…

Strange behavior of the relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations

We show that configurations exist in which the correlation functions and the degree of violation of Bell-type inequalities in the relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) experiment have local extrema for some values of the velocities of the EPR particles. Moreover, this strange behavior can be observed for both discussed relativistic spin operators and for spin-1/2 as well as spin-1 particles.

Space-Time Structure as Hidden Variable

EPR correlations exist and can be observed independently of any a priori given frame of reference. We can even construct a frame of reference that is based on these correlations. This observation-based frame of reference is equivalent to the customary a priori given frame of reference of the laboratory when describing real EPR experiments. J.S. Bell has argued that local hidden parameter theories that reproduce the predictions of Quantum Mechanics cannot exist, but the counterfactual reasoning leading to Bell's conclusion is physically meaningless if the frame of reference that is based on EPR…

Evaluating probabilistic programming languages for simulating quantum correlations

This article explores how probabilistic programming can be used to simulate quantum correlations in an EPR experimental setting. Probabilistic programs are based on standard probability which cannot produce quantum correlations. In order to address this limitation, a hypergraph formalism was programmed which both expresses the measurement contexts of the EPR experimental design as well as associated constraints. Four contemporary open source probabilistic programming frameworks were used to simulate an EPR experiment in order to shed light on their relative effectiveness from both qualitative …

Entanglement, EPR-correlations, Bell-nonlocality, and Steering

In a recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 98}, 140402 (2007)] we defined ``steering'', a type of quantum nonlocality that is logically distinct from both nonseparability and Bell-nonlocality. In the bipartite setting, it hinges on the question of whether Alice can affect Bob's state at a distance through her choice of measurement. More precisely and operationally, it hinges on the question of whether Alice, with classical communication, can convince Bob that they share an entangled state, under the circumstances that Bob trusts nothing that Alice says. We argue that if she can, then this demonst…
