• Abstract: Recently the Local Friendliness (LF) no-go theorem has gained a lot of attention, owing to its deep foundational implications. This no-go theorem applies to scenarios which combine Bell experiments with Wigner's friend-type set ups, containing space-like separated superobservers who are assumed to be capable of performing quantum operations on a local observer, also known as their "friend". Analogously to the hypothesis of local hidden variables in Bell scenarios, a set of assumptions termed "Local Friendliness" constrains the space of probabilistic behaviours accessible to the superobservers to be a particular subset of the no-signalling polytope in such scenarios. It has additionally been shown, that there are scenarios where the set of behaviours compatible with Local Friendliness is strictly larger than the Bell-local polytope, while in some scenarios those sets are equal. In this work, we complete the picture by identifying all the canonical Local Friendliness scenarios, with arbitrary but finite numbers of superobservers, friends, measurements and outcomes, where the set of LF correlations admits a local hidden variable model, and where they do not. Our proof is constructive in the sense that we also demonstrate how a local hidden variable model can be constructed, given a behaviour compatible with LF in the appropriate scenarios. While our principal motivation is the foundational question of better understanding the constraints from Local Friendliness, the same inequalities constraining LF polytopes have been shown to arise in a priori unrelated contexts of device-independent information processing. Our results may thus find use in those research areas as well.

  Signatures of localization have been observed in condensed matter and cold atomic systems. We propose a model of one-dimensional chain of non-interacting, spinless fermions coupled to a local ensemble of baths. We show that the steady state of the system undergoes a localization entanglement phase transition by tuning $p$ which remains stable in the presence of coherent hopping.

  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 identify different regimes of their evolution depending on the values of the field mass and the quench regularization parameter. We also investigate the local quenches in massive scalar field theory on a cylinder and show that they cause an erratic and chaotic-like evolution of observables.

We experimentally demonstrate such genuine tripartite nonlocality in a network under strict locality constraints.

  We present a theory of localisation in quasiperiodic chains with nearest-neighbour hoppings, based on the convergence of local propagators. Analysing the convergence of these continued fractions, localisation or its absence can be determined, yielding in turn the critical points and mobility edges. Results are exemplified by analysing the theory for three quasiperiodic models covering a range of behaviour.

We show that even with both a randomly chosen $N$-qubit pure state and randomly chosen measurement bases, a violation of local realism can be detected experimentally almost $100%$ of the time.
