Theoretical Falsification of Leggett Conjecture for Two Qubits or One Ququat

Abstract

Recently, some attention has been paid to falsifying the Leggett model, in which global probabilities characterizing a quantum state are represented by a combination of factorisable distributions. This idea was even verified in experiments, and generalized for larger subsystems, but thus far not in terms of the size of a subsystem. In this communication we show an inequality to reject the Leggett description for a subsystem of two qubits. We also point out some other interpretations of the derived expression.
