• Abstract: Measurements in quantum theory can fail to be jointly measurable. Like entanglement, this incompatibility of measurements is necessary but not sufficient for violating Bell inequalities. The (in)compatibility relations among a set of measurements can be represented by a joint measurability structure, i.e., a hypergraph whose vertices denote measurements and hyperedges denote all and only compatible sets of measurements. Since incompatibility is necessary for a Bell violation, the joint measurability structure on each wing of a Bell experiment must necessarily be non-trivial, i.e., it must admit a subset of incompatible vertices. Here we show that for any non-trivial joint measurability structure with a finite set of vertices, there exists a quantum realization with a set of measurements that enables a Bell violation, i.e., given that Alice has access to this incompatible set of measurements, there exists a set of measurements for Bob and an entangled state shared between them such that they can jointly violate a Bell inequality. Hence, a non-trivial joint measurability structure is not only necessary for a Bell violation, but also sufficient. We also provide a partial characterization of qubit measurements that are useful for Bell inequality violations in the simplest joint measurability structure of interest, i.e., Specker's scenario, which consists of three pairwise compatible but triplewise incompatible measurements.

• Measurement incompatibility is strictly stronger than disturbance [44.99833362998488]
  Heisenberg argued that measurements irreversibly alter the state of the system on which they are acting, causing an irreducible disturbance on subsequent measurements. This article shows that measurement incompatibility is indeed a sufficient condition for irreversibility of measurement disturbance. However, we exhibit a toy theory, termed the minimal classical theory (MCT), that is a counterexample for the converse implication.
