Every non-signalling channel is common-cause realizable

Paulo J. Cavalcanti, John H. Selby, Ana Belén Sainz

In this work we show that the set of non-signalling resources of a locally-tomographic generalised probabilistic theory (GPT), such as quantum and classical theory, coincides with…

Contextuality with vanishing coherence and maximal robustness to dephasing

Vinicius P. Rossi, David Schmid, John H. Selby +1

Generalized contextuality is a resource for a wide range of communication and information processing protocols. However, contextuality is not possible without coherence, and so can…

The resource theory of nonclassicality of channel assemblages

Beata Zjawin, David Schmid, Matty J. Hoban +1

When two parties, Alice and Bob, share correlated quantum systems and Alice performs local measurements, Alice's updated description of Bob's state can provide evidence of nonclass…

A hierarchy of semidefinite programs for generalised Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen scenarios

Matty J. Hoban, Tom Drescher, Ana Belén Sainz

Correlations in Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) scenarios, captured by \textit{assemblages} of unnormalised quantum states, have recently caught the attention of the community, both…

Simulating all multipartite non-signalling channels via quasiprobabilistic mixtures of local channels in generalised probabilistic theories

Paulo J. Cavalcanti, John H. Selby, Jamie Sikora +1

Non-signalling quantum channels -- relevant in, e.g., the study of Bell and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen scenarios -- may be simulated via affine combinations of local operations in bip…

A linear program for testing nonclassicality and an open-source implementation

John H. Selby, Elie Wolfe, David Schmid +2

A well motivated method for demonstrating that an experiment resists any classical explanation is to show that its statistics violate generalized noncontextuality. We here formulat…

On characterising assemblages in Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen scenarios

Vinicius P. Rossi, Matty J. Hoban, Ana Belén Sainz

Characterising non-classical quantum phenomena is crucial not only from a fundamental perspective, but also to better understand its capabilities for information processing and com…

Q-Turn: Changing Paradigms In Quantum Science

Ana Belén Sainz

Quantum information is a rapidly-growing interdisciplinary field at the intersection of information science, computer science, mathematics, philosophy, and quantum science, working…

Avenues to generalising Bell inequalities

Marcin Karczewski, Giovanni Scala, Antonio Mandarino +2

Characterizing the set of all Bell inequalities is a notably hard task. An insightful method of solving it in case of Bell correlation inequalities for scenarios with two dichotomi…

Accessible fragments of generalized probabilistic theories, cone equivalence, and applications to witnessing nonclassicality

John H. Selby, David Schmid, Elie Wolfe +3

The formalism of generalized probabilistic theories (GPTs) was originally developed as a way to characterize the landscape of conceivable physical theories. Thus, the GPT describin…

Quantifying EPR: the resource theory of nonclassicality of common-cause assemblages

Beata Zjawin, David Schmid, Matty J. Hoban +1

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering is often (implicitly or explicitly) taken to be evidence for spooky action-at-a-distance. An alternative perspective on steering is that Alic…

Contextuality without incompatibility

John H. Selby, David Schmid, Elie Wolfe +3

The existence of incompatible measurements is often believed to be a feature of quantum theory which signals its inconsistency with any classical worldview. To prove the failure of…

Post-quantum steering is a stronger-than-quantum resource for information processing

Paulo J. Cavalcanti, John H. Selby, Jamie Sikora +2

We present the first instance where post-quantum steering is a stronger-than-quantum resource for information processing -- remote state preparation. In addition, we show that the…

Correlations constrained by composite measurements

John H. Selby, Ana Belén Sainz, Victor Magron +2

How to understand the set of correlations admissible in nature is one outstanding open problem in the core of the foundations of quantum theory. Here we take a complementary viewpo…

Revisiting dynamics of quantum causal structures -- when can causal order evolve?

John H. Selby, Ana Belén Sainz, Paweł Horodecki

Recently, there has been substantial interest in studying the dynamics of quantum theory beyond that of states, in particular, the dynamics of channels, measurements, and higher-or…

Understanding the interplay of entanglement and nonlocality: motivating and developing a new branch of entanglement theory

David Schmid, Thomas C. Fraser, Ravi Kunjwal +3

A standard approach to quantifying resources is to determine which operations on the resources are freely available, and to deduce the partial order over resources that is induced…

The complexity of compatible measurements

Paul Skrzypczyk, Matty J. Hoban, Ana Belén Sainz +1

Measurement incompatibility is one of the basic aspects of quantum theory. Here we study the structure of the set of compatible -- i.e. jointly measurable -- measurements. We are i…

Reference frames which separately store non-commuting conserved quantities

Sandu Popescu, Ana Belén Sainz, Anthony J. Short +1

Even in the presence of conservation laws, one can perform arbitrary transformations on a system if given access to a suitable reference frame, since conserved quantities may be ex…

Bipartite post-quantum steering in generalised scenarios

Ana Belén Sainz, Matty J. Hoban, Paul Skrzypczyk +1

The study of stronger-than-quantum effects is a fruitful line of research that provides valuable insight into quantum theory. Unfortunately, traditional bipartite steering scenario…

Quantifying Bell: the Resource Theory of Nonclassicality of Common-Cause Boxes

We take a resource-theoretic approach to the problem of quantifying nonclassicality in Bell scenarios. The resources are conceptualized as probabilistic processes from the setting…

Quantum violations in the Instrumental scenario and their relations to the Bell scenario

Thomas Van Himbeeck, Jonatan Bohr Brask, Stefano Pironio +3

Almost Quantum Correlations are Inconsistent with Specker's Principle
