Restriction on the local realism violation in three-qubit states and its relation with tripartite entanglement

摘要

Quantum entanglement and non-locality are two special aspects of quantum correlations. The relationship between multipartite entanglement and non-locality is at the root of the foundations of quantum mechanics but there is still no general quantitative theory. In order to address this issue we analyze the relationship between tripartite non-locality and tripartite entanglement measure, called the three-tangle. We describe the states which give the extremal quantum values of a Bell-type inequality for a given value of the tripartite entanglement. Moreover, we show that such extremal states can be reached if one introduced an appropriate order induced by the three-π entanglement measure. Finally, we derive an analytical expression relating tripartite entanglement to the maximal violations of the Bell-type inequalities.
