Quantum nonlocal correlations are generated by implementation of local quantum measurements on spatially separated quantum subsystems. Depending on the underlying mathematical model, various notions of sets of quantum correlations can be defined. In this paper we prove separations of such sets of quantum correlations. In particular, we show that the set of bipartite quantum correlations with four binary measurements per party becomes strictly smaller once we restrict the local Hilbert spaces to be finite dimensional, i.e., Cq(4,4,2,2)≠Cqs(4,4,2,2). We also prove non-closure of the set of bipartite quantum correlations with four ternary measurements per party, i.e., Cqs(4,4,3,3)≠Cqa(4,4,3,3).

In this lecture note we define the S bases for the spaces of tempered distributions.These new bases are the analogous of Hilbert bases of separable Hilbert spaces for the continuous case (they are indexed by m-dimensional Euclidean spaces) and enjoy properties similar to those shown by algebraic bases in the finite dimensional case.The S bases are one possible rigorous and extremely manageable mathematical model for the "physical" bases used in Quantum Mechanics.

Global And Local

A fundamental feature of quantum mechanics radically different from classical theory lies in the role and consequence of quantum measurements, which usually cause disturbance to quantum states. For a bipartite state, the minimum disturbance caused by local measurements has been used to define quantum correlations from a measurement perspective. In contrast to this minimum approach, we investigate the maximum disturbance of local measurements, and define the nonlocal effect of a bipartite state as the maximum discrepancy between the global and local disturbances caused by local quantum measurements. Some analytical results are obtained and the significance of the maximum nonlocal effect is briefly discussed.

Sequential Products

We consider three types of entities for quantum measurements. In order of generality, these types are observables, instruments and measurement models. If α and β are entities, we define what it means for α to be a part of β. This relationship is essentially equivalent to α being a function of β and in this case β can be employed to measure α. We then use the concept to define the coexistence of entities and study its properties. A crucial role is played by a map α^ which takes an entity of a certain type to one of a lower type. For example, if I is an instrument, then I^ is the unique observable measured by I. Composite systems are discussed next. These are constructed by taking the tensor product of the Hilbert spaces of the systems being combined. Composites of the three types of measurements and their parts are studied. Reductions in types to their local components are discussed. We also consider sequential products of measurements. Specific examples of Lüders, Kraus and trivial instruments are used to illustrate various concepts. We only consider finite-dimensional systems in this article. Finally, we mention the role of symmetry representations for groups using quantum channels.

Classical Thermodynamics

In classical thermodynamics the Euler relation is an expression for the internal energy as a sum of the products of canonical pairs of extensive and intensive variables. For quantum systems the situation is more intricate, since one has to account for the effects of the measurement back action. To this end, we derive a quantum analog of the Euler relation, which is governed by the information retrieved by local quantum measurements. The validity of the relation is demonstrated for the collective dissipation model, where we find that thermodynamic behavior is exhibited in the weak-coupling regime.

Necessary And Sufficient

The characterization of the extremal points of the set of quantum correlations has attracted wide interest. In the simplest bipartite Bell scenario, a necessary and sufficient criterion for identifying extremal correlations has recently been conjectured, but extremality of tripartite correlations is not well known. In this study, we analyze tripartite extremal correlations in terms of the conjectured bipartite extremal criterion, and we demonstrate that the bipartite part of some extremal correlations satisfies the bipartite criterion, even though they violate Svetlichny’s inequality, and therefore are considered (stronger) genuine tripartite nonlocal correlations. This phenomenon arises from the fact that the conjectured extremal criterion is automatically satisfied when the violation of the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) inequality exceeds a certain threshold, the value of which is given by the maximum CHSH violation at the edges of the probability space. This also suggests the possibility that the extremality of bipartite correlations can be certified by verifying whether the CHSH violation exceeds the threshold.

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.

Basic Facts

We assume the reader has a strong background in elementary linear algebra. In this section we familiarize the reader with the algebraic notation used in quantum mechanics, remind the reader of some basic facts about complex vector spaces, and introduce some notions that might not have been covered in an elementary linear algebra course. The linear algebra notation used in quantum computing will likely be familiar to the student of physics, but may be alien to a student of mathematics or computer science. It is the Dirac notation, which was invented by Paul Dirac and which is used often in quantum mechanics. In mathematics and physics textbooks, vectors are often distinguished from scalars by writing an arrow over the identifying symbol: e.g a⃗. Sometimes boldface is used for this purpose: e.g. a. In the Dirac notation, the symbol identifying a vector is written inside a ‘ket’, and looks like |a⟩. We denote the dual vector for a (defined later) with a ‘bra’, written as ⟨a|. Then inner products will be written as ‘bra-kets’ (e.g. ⟨a|b⟩). We now carefully review the definitions of the main algebraic objects of interest, using the Dirac notation. The vector spaces we consider will be over the complex numbers, and are finite-dimensional, which significantly simplifies the mathematics we need. Such vector spaces are members of a class of vector spaces called Hilbert spaces. Nothing substantial is gained at this point by defining rigorously what a Hilbert space is, but virtually all the quantum computing literature refers to a finite-dimensional complex vector space by the name ‘Hilbert space’, and so we will follow this convention. We will use H to denote such a space. Since H is finite-dimensional, we can choose a basis and alternatively represent vectors (kets) in this basis as finite column vectors, and represent operators with finite matrices. As you see in Section 3, the Hilbert spaces of interest for quantum computing will typically have dimension 2n, for some positive integer n. This is because, as with classical information, we will construct larger state spaces by concatenating a string of smaller systems, usually of size two.

Markovian Regime

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.
