Bell-CHSH inequality and unitary transformations in Quantum Field Theory

Abstract

Unitary transformations are employed to enhance the violations of the Bell-CHSH inequality in relativistic Quantum Field Theory. The case of the scalar field in $1+1$ Minkowski space-time is scrutinized by relying on the Tomita-Takesaki modular theory. The example of the bounded Hermitian operator $sign(\phi (f))$, where $\phi (f)$ stands for the smeared scalar field, is worked out. It is shown that unitary deformations enable for violations of the Bell-CHSH inequality. The setup is generalized to the Proca vector field by means of its equivalence with the scalar theory.
