We discuss proofs of nonlocality based on a generalization by Erwin Schrodinger of the argument of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen. These proofs do not appeal in any way to Bells inequalities. Indeed, one striking feature of the proofs is that they can be used to establish nonlocality solely on the basis of suitably robust perfect correlations. First we explain that Schrodingers argument shows that locality and the perfect correlations between measurements of observables on spatially separated systems implies the existence of a non-contextual value-map for quantum observables; non-contextual means that the observable has a particular value before its measurement, for any given quantum system, and that any experiment measuring this observable will reveal that value. Then, we establish the impossibility of a non-contextual value-map for quantum observables {it without invoking any further quantum predictions}. Combining this with Schrodingers argument implies nonlocality. Finally, we illustrate how Bohmian mechanics is compatible with the impossibility of a non-contextual value-map.

Based on his extension of the classical argument of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen, Schrodinger observed that, in certain quantum states associated with pairs of particles that can be far away from one another, the result of the measurement of an obser
vable associated with one particle is perfectly correlated with the result of the measurement of another observable associated with the other particle. Combining this with the assumption of locality and some no hidden variables theorems, we showed in a previous paper [11] that this yields a contradiction. This means that the assumption of locality is false, and thus provides us with another demonstration of quantum nonlocality that does not involve Bells (or any other) inequalities. In [11] we introduced only spin-like observables acting on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. Here we will give a similar argument using the variables originally used by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen, namely position and momentum.
We give a conceptually simple proof of nonlocality using only the perfect correlations between results of measurements on distant systems discussed by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen---correlations that EPR thought proved the incompleteness of quantum m
echanics. Our argument relies on an extension of EPR by Schrodinger.
For an even qudit dimension $dgeq 2,$ we introduce a class of two-qudit states exhibiting perfect correlations/anticorrelations and prove via the generalized Gell-Mann representation that, for each two-qudit state from this class, the maximal violati
on of the original Bell inequality is bounded from above by the value $3/2$ - the upper bound attained on some two-qubit states. We show that the two-qudit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state with an arbitrary even $dgeq 2$ exhibits perfect correlations/anticorrelations and belongs to the introduced two-qudit state class. These new results are important steps towards proving in general the $frac{3}{2}$ upper bound on quantum violation of the original Bell inequality. The latter would imply that similarly as the Tsirelson upper bound $2sqrt{2}$ specifies the quantum analog of the CHSH inequality for all bipartite quantum states, the upper bound $frac{3}{2}$ specifies the quantum analog of the original Bell inequality for all bipartite quantum states with perfect correlations/ anticorrelations. Possible consequences for the experimental tests on violation of the original Bell inequality are briefly discussed.
We introduce the general class of symmetric two-qubit states guaranteeing the perfect correlation or anticorrelation of Alice and Bob outcomes whenever some spin observable is measured at both sites. We prove that, for all states from this class, the
maximal violation of the original Bell inequality is upper bounded by 3/2 and specify the two-qubit states where this quantum upper bound is attained. The case of two-qutrit states is more complicated. Here, for all two-qutrit states, we obtain the same upper bound 3/2 for violation of the original Bell inequality under Alice and Bob spin measurements, but we have not yet been able to show that this quantum upper bound is the least one. We discuss experimental consequences of our mathematical study.
We consider the class of protocols that can be implemented by local quantum operations and classical communication (LOCC) between two parties. In particular, we focus on the task of discriminating a known set of quantum states by LOCC. Building on th
e work in the paper Quantum nonlocality without entanglement [BDF+99], we provide a framework for bounding the amount of nonlocality in a given set of bipartite quantum states in terms of a lower bound on the probability of error in any LOCC discrimination protocol. We apply our framework to an orthonormal product basis known as the domino states and obtain an alternative and simplified proof that quantifies its nonlocality. We generalize this result for similar bases in larger dimensions, as well as the rotated domino states, resolving a long-standing open question [BDF+99].
