1965年的贝尔定理证明了所有对量子力学的现实解释都必须是非定域的。贝尔定理由两部分组成：第一，导出了一个所有局域实在论都必须满足的相关不等式;第二，证明了量子力学概率在某些情况下违反了这个不等式。在理想实验的情况下，贝尔定理已经被证明。然而，在偏振器和检测器是非理想的真实实验的情况下，该定理尚未被证明，因为证明总是需要一些任意的和{ \em ad hoc}的补充假设。在本文中，我们提出了一个新的和相当弱的补充假设的光子从偏振器出现的合奏，我们表明，爱因斯坦的局部性与这一假设的结合导致的有效性的不等式，违反了一个因素，在实际实验的情况下，高达1.5。此外，目前的补充假设是相当弱的，更一般比Clauser，霍恩，Shimony，霍尔特补充假设。
英文摘要：
Bell's theorem of 1965 is a proof that all realistic interpretations of quantum mechanics must be non-local. Bell's theorem consists of two parts: first a correlation inequality is derived that must be satisfied by all local realistic theories; second it is demonstrated that quantum mechanical probabilities violate this inequality in certain cases. In the case of ideal experiments, Bell's theorem has been proven. However, in the case of real experiments where polarizers and detectors are non-ideal, the theorem has not yet been proven since the proof always requires some arbitrary and {\em ad hoc} supplementary assumptions. In this paper, we state a new and rather weak supplementary assumption for the ensemble of photons that emerge from the polarizers, and we show that the conjunction of Einstein's locality with this assumption leads to validity of an inequality that is violated by a factor as large as 1.5 in the case of real experiments. Moreover, the present supplementary assumption is considerably weaker and more general than Clauser, Horne, Shimony, Holt supplementary assumption.
I argue that quantum mechanics is a realistic theory, but it violates either strong locality (no superluminal influences) or strict causality (diiferent effects cannot follow from the same cause).
The categorization of quantum states for composite systems as either separable or entangled, or alternatively as Bell local or Bell non-local states based on local hidden variable theory is reviewed in Sections 1 and 2, focusing on simple bipartite systems. The significance of states demonstrating Bell non-locality for settling the long standing controversy between the Copenhagen interpretation of the quantum measurement process involving the collapse of the wave-function and the alternative interpretation based on pre-existing hidden variables is emphasized. Although experiments demonstrating…
Bounds, expressed in terms of d and N, on full Bell locality of a quantum state for $N\geq 3$ nonlocally entangled qudits (of a dimension $d\geq 2$) mixed with white noise are known, to our knowledge, only within full separability of this noisy N-qudit state. For the maximal violation of general Bell inequalities by an N-partite quantum state, we specify the analytical upper bound expressed in terms of dilation characteristics of this state, and this allows us to find new general bounds in $d, N$, valid for all $d\geq 2$ and all $N\geq 3$, on full Bell locality under generalized quantum measur…
Bell's theorem, stating that quantum predictions are incompatible with a local hidden variable description, is a cornerstone of quantum theory and at the center of many quantum information processing protocols. Over the years, different perspectives on non-locality have been put forward as well as different ways to to detect non-locality and quantify it. Unfortunately and in spite of its relevance, as the complexity of the Bell scenario increases, deciding whether a given observed correlation is non-local becomes computationally intractable. Here, we propose to analyse a Bell scenario as a ten…
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 …
In a Bell test, the set of observed probability distributions complying with the principle of local realism is fully characterized by Bell inequalities. Quantum theory allows for a violation of these inequalities, which is famously regarded as Bell nonlocality. However, finding the maximal degree of this violation is, in general, an undecidable problem. Consequently, no algorithm can be used to derive quantum analogs of Bell inequalities, which would characterize the set of probability distributions allowed by quantum theory. Here we present a family of inequalities, which approximate the set …
Measurements performed on distant parts of an entangled quantum state can generate correlations incompatible with classical theories respecting the assumption of local causality. This is the phenomenon known as quantum non-locality that, apart from its fundamental role, can also be put to practical use in applications such as cryptography and distributed computing. Clearly, developing ways of quantifying non-locality is an important primitive in this scenario. Here, we propose to quantify the non-locality of a given probability distribution via its trace distance to the set of classical correl…

We give a set of necessary conditions for locality in bipartite systems, which include and generalize known Bell's inequalities. Each condition corresponds to a specific order of the expansion of random variables defined on graphs, in terms of genuinely n-variable correlation functions. The first non-trivial order leads to known Bell inequalities, while higher orders produce additional, non-equivalent conditions. In particular, in CHSH settings, we obtain at least two additional tight conditions which do not reduce to the CHSH inequality. This shows that tight Bell inequalities are sufficient …
Bell non-locality and Kochen-Specker (KS) contextuality are logically independent concepts, fuel different protocols with quantum vs classical advantage, and have distinct classical simulation costs. A natural question is what are the relations between these concepts, advantages, and costs. To address this question, it is useful to have a map that captures all the connections between Bell non-locality and KS contextuality in quantum theory. The aim of this work is to introduce such a map. After defining the theory-independent notions of Bell non-locality and KS contextuality for ideal measurem…
By assuming a deterministic evolution of quantum systems and taking realism into account, we carefully build a hidden variable theory for Quantum Mechanics based on the notion of ontological states proposed by 't Hooft. We view these ontological states as the ones embedded with realism and compare them to the (usual) quantum states that represent superpositions, viewing the latter as mere information of the system they describe. Such a deterministic model puts forward conditions for the applicability of Bell's inequality: the usual inequality cannot be applied to the usual experiments. We buil…
Using Bell-inequalities as a tool to explore non-classical physical behaviours, in this paper we analyze what one can expect to find in many-body quantum physics. Concretely, framing the usual correlation scenarios as a concrete spin-lattice, we want to know whether or not it is possible to violate a Bell-inequality restricted to this scenario. Using clustering theorems, we are able to show that a large family of quantum many-body systems behave almost locally, violating Bell-inequalities (if so) only by a non-significant amount. We also provide examples, explain some of our assumptions via co…

Marginal problems naturally arise in a variety of different fields: basically, the question is whether some marginal/partial information is compatible with a joint probability distribution. To this aim, the characterization of marginal sets via quantifier elimination and polyhedral projection algorithms is of primal importance. In this work, before considering specific problems, we review polyhedral projection algorithms with focus on applications in information theory, and, alongside known algorithms, we also present a newly developed geometric algorithm which walks along the face lattice of …
The violations of Bell inequalities by measurements on quantum states give rise to the phenomenon of quantum non-locality and express the advantage of using quantum resources over classical ones for certain information-theoretic tasks. The relative degree of quantum violations has been well studied in the bipartite scenario and in the multipartite scenario with respect to fully local behaviours. However, the multipartite setting entails a more complex classification in which different notions on non-locality can be established. In particular, genuine multipartite non-local distributions appreh…
By constructing the quantum state in high-dimensional probability tensor, we find the quantum magic square(QMS) may stand as an ideal means of characterizing the non-local phenomena, i.e. the separability, entanglement, two/one-way steering, and Bell non-locality, etc. In this scheme, different types of non-locality exhibit distinctive inner structures of the probability tensor, which are observable in form of the partial sum of the tensor components. In application, we prove the Bell and GHZ theorems, and demonstrate that the uncertainty relation may rate the non-locality, from Bell locality …
In [Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 250401 (2015)] the sharing of non-locality by multiple observers was demonstrated through the quantum violation of Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Halt inequality. In this paper we provide a scheme for sharing of non-locality and non-trivial preparation contextuality sequentially through the quantum violation of a family of Bell's inequalities where Alice and Bob perform $2^{n-1}$ and $n$ numbers of measurements of dichotomic observables respectively. For this, we consider that Alice always performs projective measurement and multiple Bobs sequentially perform unsharp measureme…
The assumption of measurement independence is required for a local deterministic model to conduct a Bell test. The violation of a Bell inequality by such a model implies that this assumption must be relaxed. The degree to which the assumption needs to be relaxed to achieve violation of some bipartite Bell inequalities, has been investigated recently in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 250404(2010), Phys. Rev. A 99, 012121(2019)]. In this work, we study the minimum degree of relaxation required to simulate violations of various well-known tripartite Bell inequalities and opens the possibility of relaxati…
