Lazarus Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Bell’s inequality is S = P(a,b)-P(a,d)+P(c,b)+P(c,d) <= 2, which is calculated as S = a*b – a*d + c*b + c*d <= 2 The CHSH version is: E = (N11 + N00 - N10 -N01) / (N11 + N00 + N10 + N01) S = E1 - E2 + E3 + E4 / E1 + E2 + E3 + E4 <= 2 N11 is the number of correlations, etc E is the Correlation Coefficient There appears to be a significant difference between Bell’s and CHSH’s inequalities. For comparison, converting the Correlation Coefficient to Probability makes it possible to enter the values directly into Bell’s Inequality. The conversion to Probability is the Correlation Coefficient divided by 2 then adding .5. Using the much mentioned values for E of +.707, -.707, +.707 and +.707 as a, b, c and d, Bell’s Inequality is calculated as S = -.8535*.8535 – ( .8535*-.8535) + .8535*.8535 + .8535*.8535 = -.728 + .728 + .728 + .728 = 1.456. So using the real Bell’s Inequality, there is no violation. Please explain the justification for the CHSH Inequality.
