• Abstract: Quantum correlations in networks with independent sources have revealed novel forms of nonclassical behavior. While entanglement in the sources is a necessary ingredient, the role played by entanglement in the measurements remains largely unexplored. In particular, all existing demonstrations of full network nonlocality, certifying the nonclassicality of every source in the network, have relied on entangled measurements performed at a central node with no inputs. In this work, we construct an explicit strategy that does not rely on entangled measurements, yet still achieves full network nonlocality. Our approach is based on separable measurements augmented with bidirectional classical feedforward. We further show that this same class of measurements can give rise to another recently proposed form of network nonlocality, the minimal network nonclassicality, which ensures that the observed correlations cannot be attributed to any fixed subset of nonclassical sources within the network. Finally, building on a recently developed certification framework, we quantify the amount of device-independent randomness that can be extracted from full network nonlocal correlations under different measurement strategies. Beyond their foundational significance, our results also offer a practically attractive route toward experimental implementations of network nonlocality, as they remove the need for entangled measurements.

• Experimental full network nonlocality with independent sources and strict locality constraints [59.541438315564854]
  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.

  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.

• Possibilistic approach to network nonlocality [0.0]
  We explore a possibilistic approach, where only patterns of possible outcomes matter, and apply it to Bell nonlocality in networks with independent sources. We present various algorithms for determining whether a given outcome pattern can be achieved via classical resources or via non-signaling resources. We show how to construct certificates for detecting the nonlocality of a certain pattern, in the form of nonlinear Bell-type inequalities involving joint probabilities.

• Full network nonlocality [68.8204255655161]
  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.
