  • Entanglement and Nonlocality are Inequivalent for Any Number of Parties

    Publikacja

    - PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS - Rok 2015

    Understanding the relation between nonlocality and entanglement is one of the fundamental problems in quantum physics. In the bipartite case, it is known that these two phenomena are inequivalent, as there exist entangled states of two parties that do not violate any Bell inequality. However, except for a single example of an entangled three-qubit state that has a local model, almost nothing is known about such a relation in multipartite...
