Locality, detection efficiencies, and probability polytopes
arXiv:0808.2126 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.78.032116
Abstract
We present a detailed investigation of minimum detection efficiencies, below which locality cannot be violated by any quantum system of any dimension in bipartite Bell experiments. Lower bounds on these minimum detection efficiencies are determined with the help of linear programming techniques. Our approach is based on the observation that any possible bipartite quantum correlation originating from a quantum state in an arbitrary dimensional Hilbert space is sandwiched between two probability polytopes, namely the local (Bell) polytope and a corresponding nonlocal no-signaling polytope. Numerical results are presented demonstrating the dependence of these lower bounds on the numbers of inputs and outputs of the bipartite physical system.
