Quantum mechanics puts a restriction on the number of observers who can simultaneously steer another observer's system, known as the monogamy of steering. In this work we find the limit of the number of observers (Bobs) who can steer another party's (Alice's) system invoking a scenario where half of an entangled pair is shared between a single Alice in one wing and several Bobs on the other wing, who act sequentially and independently of each other. When all the observers measure two dichotomic observables, we find that two Bobs can steer Alice's system going beyond the monogamy restriction. We further show that three Bobs can steer Alice's system considering a three-settings linear steering inequality, and then conjecture that at most n Bobs can demonstrate steering of Alice's system when steering is probed through an n-settings linear steering inequality.
Recently, it has been shown that at most two observers (Bobs) can sequentially demonstrate bipartite nonlocality with a spatially separated single observer (Alice) invoking a scenario where an entangled system of two spin-1 2 particles are shared between a single Alice in one wing and several Bobs on the other wing, who act sequentially and independently of each other [Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 250401 (2015)]. This has been probed through the quantum violations of CHSH inequality, i. e., when each observer performs two dichotomic measurements.In the present study we investigate how many Bobs can sequentially demonstrate bipartite nonlocality with a single Alice in the above scenario when the number of measurement settings per observer is increased. It is shown that at most two Bobs can exhibit bipartite nonlocality with a single Alice using local realist inequalities with three as well as four dichotomic measurements per observer. We then conjecture that the above feature remains unchanged contingent upon using local realist inequalities with n dichotomic measurements per observer, where n is arbitrary. We further present the robustness of bipartite nonlocality sharing in the above scenario against the entanglement and mixedness of the shared state. arXiv:1811.04813v2 [quant-ph]
Quantum inseparabilities can be classified into three inequivalent forms: entanglement, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering, and Bell's nonlocality. Bell-nonlocal states form a strict subset of EPR steerable states which also form a strict subset of entangled states. Recently, EPR steerable states are shown to be fundamental resources for one-sided device-independent quantum information processing tasks and, hence, identification of EPR steerable states becomes important from foundational as well as informational theoretic perspectives. In the present study we propose a new criteria to detect whether a given two-qubit state is EPR steerable. From an arbitrary given two-qubit state, another two-qubit state is constructed in such a way that the given state is EPR steerable if the new constructed state is entangled. Hence, EPR steerability of an arbitrary two-qubit state can be detected by detecting entanglement of the newly constructed state. Apart from providing a distinctive way to detect EPR steering without using any steering inequality, the novel finding in the present study paves a new direction to avoid locality loophole in EPR steering tests and to reduce the "complexity cost" present in experimentally detecting EPR steering. We also generalise our criteria to detect EPR steering of higher dimensional quantum states. Finally, we illustrate our result by using our proposed technique to detect EPR steerability of various families of mixed states.
Standard tripartite nonlocality and genuine tripartite nonlocality can be detected by the violations of Mermin inequality and Svetlichny inequality, respectively. Since tripartite quantum nonlocality has novel applications in quantum information and quantum computation, it is important to investigate whether more than three observers can share tripartite nonlocality, simultaneously. In the present study we answer this question in the affirmative. In particular, we consider a scenario where three spin-1 2 particles are spatially separated and shared between Alice, Bob and multiple Charlies. Alice performs measurements on the first particle; Bob performs measurements on the second particle and multiple Charlies perform measurements on the third particle sequentially. In this scenario we investigate how many Charlies can simultaneously demonstrate standard tripartite nonlocality and genuine tripartite nonlocality with single Alice and single Bob. The interesting result revealed by the present study is that at most six Charlies can simultaneously demonstrate standard tripartite nonlocality with single Alice and single Bob. On the other hand, at most two Charlies can simultaneously demonstrate genuine tripartite nonlocality with single Alice and single Bob. Hence, the present study shows that standard tripartite nonlocality can be simultaneously shared by larger number of Charlies compared to genuine tripartite nonlocality in the aforementioned scenario, which implies that standard tripartite nonlocality is more effective than genuine tripartite nonlocality in the context of simultaneous sharing by multiple observers.
We consider the problem of 1-sided device-independent self-testing of any pure entangled two-qubit state based on steering inequalities which certify the presence of quantum steering. In particular, we note that in the 2 − 2 − 2 steering scenario (involving 2 parties, 2 measurement settings per party, 2 outcomes per measurement setting), the maximal violation of a fine-grained steering inequality can be used to witness certain extremal steerable correlations, which certify all pure two-qubit entangled states. We demonstrate that the violation of the analogous CHSH inequality of steering or nonvanishing value of a quantity constructed using a correlation function called mutual predictability, together with the maximal violation of the fine-grained steering inequality can be used to self-test any pure entangled two-qubit state in a 1-sided device-independent way.
