• Title: Measurement incompatibility under loss
• Authors: Mohammad Mehboudi, Fatemeh Rezaeinia, Saleh Rahimi-Keshari,
• Abstract summary: We investigate the measurement incompatibility of continuous-variable quantum systems under the influence of pure losses. We design a set of measurements that remains incompatible even under extreme losses, where the number of measurements in the set increases with the amount of loss. These measurements rely on on-off photo-detection and linear optics, making them feasible for implementation in realistic laboratory conditions.

• Abstract: Measurement incompatibility plays a critical role in quantum information processing, as it is essential for the violation of Bell and steering inequalities. Identifying sets of incompatible measurements is thus a key task in this field. However, practical implementations of quantum systems are inherently noisy, making it crucial to understand how noise affects measurement incompatibility. While it is known that noise can destroy incompatibility, it cannot create it. Despite extensive research on measurement incompatibility in finite-dimensional systems -- often tackled using semi-definite programming -- there has been limited progress in understanding this phenomenon in infinite-dimensional continuous-variable (CV) systems, which are highly relevant for quantum information applications. In this work, we investigate the measurement incompatibility of CV systems under the influence of pure losses, a fundamental noise source in quantum optics and a significant challenge for long-distance quantum communication. We first establish a quantitative relationship between the degree of loss and the minimum number of measurements required to maintain incompatibility. Furthermore, we design a set of measurements that remains incompatible even under extreme losses, where the number of measurements in the set increases with the amount of loss. Importantly, these measurements rely on on-off photo-detection and linear optics, making them feasible for implementation in realistic laboratory conditions.

• 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.

• Distributed quantum incompatibility [0.0]
  We show that the incompatibility which is gained via additional measurements is upper and lower bounded by certain functions of the incompatibility of subsets of the available measurements. We discuss the consequences of our results for the nonlocality that can be gained by enlarging the number of measurements in a Bell experiment.

  We introduce a noise-robust and loss-tolerant test of quantum steering designed for single detector measurements. We experimentally demonstrate detection loophole-free quantum steering in 53 dimensions through simultaneous loss and noise conditions. By surpassing the constraints imposed upon the device-independent distribution of entanglement, our loss-tolerant, noise-robust, and resource-efficient demonstration of quantum steering proves itself a critical ingredient for making device-independent quantum communication over long distances a reality.
