Quantum correlations are tightly bound by the exclusivity principle.

چکیده
It is a fundamental problem in physics of what principle limits the correlations as predicted by our current description of nature, based on quantum mechanics. One possible explanation is the "global exclusivity" principle recently discussed in Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 060402 (2013). In this work we show that this principle actually has a much stronger restriction on the probability distribution. We provide a tight constraint inequality imposed by this principle and prove that this principle singles out quantum correlations in scenarios represented by any graph. Our result implies that the exclusivity principle might be one of the fundamental principles of nature.

Canonical thermostatics of ideal gas in the frame work of generalized uncertainty principle
The statistical consequences of minimal length supposition are investigated for a canonical ensemble of ideal gas. These effects are encoded in the so-called Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) of the second order. In the frame work of the considered GUP scenario, a unique partition function is obtained by using of two different methods of quantum and classical approaches. It should be noti...
متن کاملBound on genuine multipartite correlations from the principle of information causality
Quantum mechanics is not the unique no-signaling theory which is endowed with stronger-than-classical correlations, and there exists a broad class of no-signaling theories allowing even stronger-than-quantum correlations. The principle of information causality has been suggested to distinguish quantum theory from these nonphysical theories, together with an elegant information-theoretic proof o...
متن کاملSimple explanation of the quantum violation of a fundamental inequality.
We show that the maximum quantum violation of the Klyachko-Can-Binicioğlu-Shumovsky (KCBS) inequality is exactly the maximum value satisfying the following principle: The sum of probabilities of pairwise exclusive events cannot exceed 1. We call this principle "global exclusivity," since its power shows up when it is applied to global events resulting from enlarged scenarios in which the events...
متن کاملLandauer's principle in the quantum domain
Recent papers discussing thermodynamic processes in strongly coupled quantum systems claim a violation of Landauer’s principle and imply a violation of the second law of thermodynamics [1, 2, 3, 4]. If true, this would have powerful consequences. Perpetuum mobiles could be build as long as the operating temperature is brought close to zero. It would also have serious consequences on thermodynam...
متن کاملInformation Content of Elementary Systems as a Physical Principle
To explain conceptual gap between classical/quantum and other, hypothetical descriptions of world, several principles has been proposed. So far, all these principles have not involved uncertainty concept. Here we introduce an information content principle (ICP) which represents the new-constrained uncertainty principle. The principle, by taking into account the encoding/decoding properties of p...
