In quantum information, lifting is a systematic procedure that can be used to derive---when provided with a seed Bell inequality---other Bell inequalities applicable in more complicated Bell scenarios. It is known that the procedure of lifting introduced by Pironio [J. Math. Phys. A 46, 062112 (2005)] preserves the facet-defining property of a Bell inequality. Lifted Bell inequalities therefore represent a broad class of Bell inequalities that can be found in {em all} Bell scenarios. Here, we show that the maximal value of {em any} lifted Bell inequality is preserved for both the set of nonsignaling correlations and quantum correlations. Despite the degeneracy in the maximizers of such inequalities, we show that the ability to self-test a quantum state is preserved under these lifting operations. In addition, except for outcome-lifting, local measurements that are self-testable using the original Bell inequality---despite the degeneracy---can also be self-tested using {em any} lifted Bell inequality derived therefrom. While it is not possible to self-test {em all} the positive-operator-valued measure elements using an outcome-lifted Bell inequality, we show that partial, but robust self-testing statements on the underlying measurements can nonetheless be made from the quantum violation of these lifted inequalities. We also highlight the implication of our observations on the usefulness of using lifted Bell-like inequalities as a device-independent witnesses for entanglement depth. The impact of the aforementioned degeneracy on the geometry of the quantum set of correlations is briefly discussed.

We show that it is possible to find maximal violations of the CHSH-Bell inequality using only position measurements on a pair of entangled non-relativistic free particles. The device settings required in the CHSH inequality are done by choosing one of two times at which position is measured. For different assignments of the + outcome to positions, namely to an interval, to a half line, or to a periodic set, we determine violations of the inequalities, and states where they are attained. These results have consequences for the hidden variable theories of Bohm and Nelson, in which the two-time correlations between distant particle trajectories have a joint distribution, and hence cannot violate any Bell inequality.
Quantum nonlocality, one of the most important features of quantum mechanics, is normally connected in experiments with the violation of Bell-Clauser-Horne (Bell-CH) inequalities. We propose effective methods for the rearrangement and linear inequality to prove a large variety of Bell-CH inequalities. We also derive a set of Bell-CH inequalities by using these methods which can be violated in some quantum entangled states.
Bell inequalities constitute a key tool in quantum information theory: they not only allow one to reveal nonlocality in composite quantum systems, but, more importantly, they can be used to certify relevant properties thereof. We provide a very simple and intuitive construction of Bell inequalities that are maximally violated by the multiqubit graph states and can be used for their robust self-testing. The main advantage of our inequalities over previous constructions for these states lies in the fact that the number of correlations they contain scales only linearly with the number of observers, which presents a significant reduction of the experimental effort needed to violate them. We also discuss possible generalizations of our approach by showing that it is applicable to entangled states whose stabilizers are not simply tensor products of Pauli matrices.
In recent papers, the theory of representations of finite groups has been proposed to analyzing the violation of Bell inequalities. In this paper, we apply this method to more complicated cases. For two partite system, Alice and Bob each make one of $d$ possible measurements, each measurement has $n$ outcomes. The Bell inequalities based on the choice of two orbits are derived. The classical bound is only dependent on the number of measurements $d$, but the quantum bound is dependent both on $n$ and $d$. Even so, when $d$ is large enough, the quantum bound is only dependent on $d$. The subset of probabilities for four parties based on the choice of six orbits under group action is derived and its violation is described. Restricting the six orbits to three parties by forgetting the last party, and guaranteeing the classical bound invariant, the Bell inequality based on the choice of four orbits is derived. Moreover, all the corresponding nonlocal games are analyzed.
The violation of a Bell inequality is the paradigmatic example of device-independent quantum information: the nonclassicality of the data is certified without the knowledge of the functioning of devices. In practice, however, all Bell experiments rely on the precise understanding of the underlying physical mechanisms. Given that, it is natural to ask: Can one witness nonclassical behaviour in a truly black-box scenario? Here we propose and implement, computationally and experimentally, a solution to this ab-initio task. It exploits a robust automated optimization approach based on the Stochastic Nelder-Mead algorithm. Treating preparation and measurement devices as black-boxes, and relying on the observed statistics only, our adaptive protocol approaches the optimal Bell inequality violation after a limited number of iterations for a variety photonic states, measurement responses and Bell scenarios. In particular, we exploit it for randomness certification from unknown states and measurements. Our results demonstrate the power of automated algorithms, opening a new venue for the experimental implementation of device-independent quantum technologies.
