Boole-Bell-type inequalities in Mathematica

چکیده
Classical Pitowsky correlation polytopes are reviewed with particular emphasis on the Minkowski-Weyl representation theorem. The inequalities representing the faces of polytopes are Boole’s “conditions of possible experience.” Many of these inequalities have been discussed in the context of Bell’s inequalities. We introduce CddIF, a Mathematica package created as an interface between Mathematica and the cdd program by Komei Fukuda, which represents a highly efficient method to solve the hull problem for general classical correlation polytopes.

متن کاملExtended Boole - Bell inequalities applicable to quantum theory
We address the basic meaning of apparent contradictions of quantum theory and probability frameworks as expressed by Bell’s inequalities. We show that these contradictions have their origin in the incomplete considerations of the premisses of the derivation of the inequalities. A careful consideration of past work, including that of Boole and Vorob’ev, has lead us to the formulation of extended...
متن کاملBoole-Bell type inequalities for the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger and 3-3 cases
We derive all inequalities in the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) case as well as for two particles with spin state measurements in three directions.
متن کامل4 v 1 1 J un 2 00 4 George Boole and the Bell inequalities
As shown by Pitowsky, the Bell inequalities are related to certain classes of probabilistic inequalities dealt with by George Boole, back in the 1850s. Here a short presentation of this relationship is given. Consequently, the Bell inequalities can be obtained without any assumptions of physical nature, and merely through mathematical argument. The importance of the typically quantum phenomenon...

Mainstream interpretations of quantum theory maintain that violations of the Bell inequalities deny at least either realism or Einstein locality. Here we investigate the premises of the Bell-type inequalities by returning to earlier inequalities presented by Boole and the findings of Vorob’ev as related to these inequalities. These findings together with a space-time generalization of Boole’s e...
