- Abstract summary: Full network nonlocality goes beyond standard nonlocality in networks by falsifying any model in which at least one source is classical.
We report on the observation of full network nonlocality in a star-shaped network featuring three independent sources of photonic qubits and joint three-qubit entanglement-swapping measurements.

- Abstract: Networks composed of independent sources of entangled particles that connect
distant users are a rapidly developing quantum technology and an increasingly
promising test-bed for fundamental physics. Here we address the certification
of their post-classical properties through demonstrations of full network
nonlocality. Full network nonlocality goes beyond standard nonlocality in
networks by falsifying any model in which at least one source is classical,
even if all the other sources are limited only by the no-signaling principle.
We report on the observation of full network nonlocality in a star-shaped
network featuring three independent sources of photonic qubits and joint
three-qubit entanglement-swapping measurements. Our results constitute the
first experimental demonstration of full network nonlocality beyond the bilocal
network.

We propose the first method to verify both types of nonlocality simultaneously in a single experiment.
We observe both types of nonlocality in a high fidelity photonic quantum network by violating a single network Bell inequality.

We derive linear and non-linear Bell-like inequalities for networks, whose violation certifies the absence of a minimum number of classical sources in them.
We do so, without assuming that nature is ultimately governed by quantum mechanics, providing a hierarchy interpolating between network nonlocality and full network nonlocality.

Nonlocality in networks gives rise to phenomena radically different from that in standard Bell scenarios.
We experimentally observe full network nonlocality in a network where the source-independence, locality, and measurement-independence loopholes are closed.
Our experiment violates known inequalities characterizing non-full network nonlocal correlations by over five standard deviations.

We show that the family of quantum triangle distributions of [DOI40103/PhysRevLett.123.140] did not admit triangle-local models in a larger range than the original proof.
We produce a large collection of network Bell inequalities for the triangle scenario with binary outcomes, which are of independent interest.

photonic technologies [0.5461681605490603]
Two independent sources using different technologies are used to share photonic entangled state among three nodes connected through a 270 m free-space channel and fiber links.
By violating a suitable non-linear Bell inequality, we demonstrate the nonlocal behaviour of the correlations among the nodes of the network.
Our results pave the way towards the realization of more complex networks and the implementation of quantum communication protocols in an urban environment.

We show that the nonlocality of single-photon entangled states can nevertheless be revealed in a quantum network made only of beamsplitters and photodetectors.
Our results show that single-photon entanglement may constitute a promising solution to generate genuine network-nonlocal correlations useful for Bell-based quantum information protocols.

We define a notion of genuine network quantum nonlocality.
We show several examples of correlations that are genuine network nonlocal.
In particular, we present an example of quantum self-testing which relies on the network structure.

We introduce the concept of full network nonlocality, which describes correlations that necessitate all links in a network to distribute nonlocal resources.
We show that the most well-known network Bell test does not witness full network nonlocality.
More generally, we point out that established methods for analysing local and theory-independent correlations in networks can be combined in order to deduce sufficient conditions for full network nonlocality.
