• Abstract: In a Bell test, the set of observed probability distributions complying with the principle of local realism is fully characterized by Bell inequalities. Quantum theory allows for a violation of these inequalities, which is famously regarded as Bell nonlocality. However, finding the maximal degree of this violation is, in general, an undecidable problem. Consequently, no algorithm can be used to derive quantum analogs of Bell inequalities, which would characterize the set of probability distributions allowed by quantum theory. Here we present a family of inequalities, which approximate the set of quantum correlations in Bell scenarios where the number of settings or outcomes can be arbitrary. We derive these inequalities from the principle of Information Causality, and thus, we do not assume the formalism of quantum mechanics. Moreover, we identify a subspace in the correlation space for which the derived inequalities give the necessary and sufficient conditions for the principle of Macroscopic Locality. As a result, we show that in this subspace, the principle of Information Causality is strictly stronger than the principle of Macroscopic Locality.

• Time series and the meaning of quantum non-locality [55.2480439325792]
  The derivation of Bell's inequalities gives precise meaning to the idea of quantum non-locality. It also makes evident why using it for faster than light signaling is impossible. It is demonstrated that series of outcomes, even if they violate Bell's inequalities, can be always embedded in a set of factual and counter-factual data.

• Universal bound on the relaxation rates for quantum Markovian dynamics [0.0]
  We show that a maximal rate is bounded from above by the sum of all the relaxation rates divided by the dimension of the Hilbert space. This constraint is universal (it is valid for all quantum systems with finite number of energy levels) and it is tight (cannot be improved)

  Louis Sica derived Bell's inequalities from the hypothesis that the time series of outcomes observed in one station does not change if the setting in the other station is changed. In this paper, Sica's approach is extended to series with non ideal efficiency and to the actual time structure of experimental data.

• Scalable Bell inequalities for graph states of arbitrary prime local dimension and self-testing [0.0]
  Bell nonlocality -- the existence of quantum correlations that cannot be explained by classical means -- is one of the most striking features of quantum mechanics. This work provides a general construction of Bell inequalities maximally violated by graph states of any prime local dimension. We analytically determine their maximal quantum violation, a number of high relevance for device-independent applications of Bell inequalities.

  Characterising quantum correlations from physical principles is a central problem in the field of quantum information theory. We suggest a natural generalisation of no-signalling in the form of no-disturbance to dilated systems.

  AC principle restrains the time order' of two spacelike separated events/processes to be a potential cause of another event in their common future. A strong form of violation enables instantaneous signaling, whereas a weak form of violation forbids the theory to be locally tomographic. On the other hand, impossibility of an intermediate violation suffices to discard the universal quantum NOT logic.

• Quantum Mechanical description of Bell's experiment assumes Locality [91.3755431537592]
  Bell's experiment description assumes the (Quantum Mechanics-language equivalent of the classical) condition of Locality. This result is complementary to a recently published one demonstrating that non-Locality is necessary to describe said experiment. It is concluded that, within the framework of Quantum Mechanics, there is absolutely no reason to believe in the existence of non-Local effects.
