The local and non local behavior of the accelerated Gisin state are investigated either before or after filtering process. It is shown that, the possibility of predicting the non-local behavior is forseen at large values of the weight of the Gisin and acceleration parameters. Due to the filtering process, the non-locality behavior of the Gisin state is predicted at small values of the weight parameter. The amount of non classical correlations are quantified by means of the local quantum uncertainty (LQU)and the concurrence, where the LQU is more sensitive to the non-locality than the concurrence. The phenomenon of the sudden changes is displayed for both quantifiers. Our results show that, the accelerated Gisin state could be used to mask information, where all the possible partitions of the masked state satisfy the masking criteria. Moreover, there is a set of states, which satisfy the masking condition, that is generated between each qubit and its masker qubit. For this set, the amount of the non-classical correlations increases as the acceleration parameter increases . Further, the filtering process improves these correlations, where their maximum bounds are much larger than those depicted for non-filtered states.

We describe a two-player non-local game, with a fixed small number of questions and answers, such that an ϵ-close to optimal strategy requires an entangled state of dimension 2Ω(ϵ−1/8). Our non-local game is inspired by the three-player non-local game of Ji, Leung and Vidick \cite{ji2018three}. It reduces the number of players from three to two, as well as the question and answer set sizes. Moreover, it provides an (arguably) elementary proof of the non-closure of the set of quantum correlations, based on embezzlement and self-testing. In contrast, previous proofs \cite{slofstra2019set, dykema2017non, musat2018non} involved representation theoretic machinery for finitely-presented groups and C∗-algebras.

Green sulfur bacteria is a photosynthetic organism whose light-harvesting complex accommodates a pigment-protein complex called Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO). The FMO complex sustains quantum coherence and quantum correlations between the electronic states of spatially separated pigment molecules as energy moves with nearly a 100% quantum efficiency to the reaction center. We present a method based on the quantum uncertainty associated to local measurements to quantify discord-like quantum correlations between two subsystems where one is a qubit and the other is a qudit. We implement the method by calculating local quantum uncertainty (LQU), concurrence, and coherence between subsystems of pure and mixed states represented by the eigenstates and by the thermal equilibrium state determined by the FMO Hamiltonian. Three partitions of the seven chromophores network define the subsystems: one chromophore with six chromophores, pairs of chromophores, and one chromophore with two chromophores. Implementation of the LQU approach allows us to characterize quantum correlations that had not been studied before, identify the most quantum correlated subsets of chromophores, and determine that, in the strongest associations of chromophores, the LQU is a monotonically increasing function of the coherence.

We describe a new technique for obtaining Tsirelson bounds, which are upper bounds on the quantum value of a Bell inequality. Since quantum correlations do not allow signalling, we obtain a Tsirelson bound by maximizing over all no-signalling probability distributions. This maximization can be cast as a linear programme. In a setting where three parties, A, B and C, share an entangled quantum state of arbitrary dimension, we (i) bound the trade-off between AB's and AC's violation of the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt inequality and (ii) demonstrate that forcing B and C to be classically correlated prevents A and B from violating certain Bell inequalities, relevant for interactive proof systems and cryptography.

Symmetry plays the central role in the structure of quantum states of bipartite (or many-body) fermionic systems. Typically, symmetry leads to the phenomenon of quantum coherence and correlations (entanglement) inherent to quantum systems only. In the present work, we study the role of symmetry (i.e., quantum correlations) in invasive quantum measurements. We consider the influence of a direct or indirect measurement process on a composite quantum system. We derive explicit analytical expressions for the case of two quantum spins positioned on both sides of the quantum cantilever. The spins are coupled indirectly to each others via their interaction with a magnetic tip deposited on the cantilever. Two types of quantum witnesses can be considered, which quantify the invasiveness of a measurement on the systems’ quantum states: (i) A local quantum witness stands for the consequence on the quantum spin states of a measurement done on the cantilever, meaning we first perform a measurement on the cantilever, and subsequently a measurement on a spin. (ii) The non-local quantum witness signifies the response of one spin if a measurement is done on the other spin. In both cases the disturbance must involve the cantilever. However, in the first case, the spin-cantilever interaction is linear in the coupling constant Ω , where as in the second case, the spin-spin interaction is quadratic in Ω . For both cases, we find and discuss analytical results for the witness.

We investigate the behavior of quantum correlations in some specific Werner-like two-qubit states, where the qubit interacts individually with non-Markovian environment. We employ the local quantum uncertainty and trace distance discord to quantify the amount of quantum correlations between the evolved qubits and the corresponding analytical expressions are derived. For specific values of the parameters characterizing the whole system, the dynamics of quantum correlations exhibits collapse and revival phenomena. The influence of the non-Markovianity is also investigated to analyze the monotonic decay of quantum correlations in the limiting case of Markovian regime. Furthermore, we show that trace distance discord captures quantum correlations that cannot be revealed by local quantum uncertainty in some particular situations.
