Abstract

A constraint on two complementary knowledge excesses by maximal violation of Bell inequalities for a single copy of any mixed state of two qubits S,MS,M is analyzed. The complementary knowledge excesses ΔK(ΠMΠS){\bf \Delta K}(\Pi_{M}\to \Pi_{S}) and ΔK(ΠMΠS){\bf \Delta K}(\Pi'_{M}\to \Pi'_{S}) quantify an enhancement of ability to predict results of the complementary projective measurements ΠS,ΠS\Pi_{S},\Pi'_{S} on the qubit SS from the projective measurements ΠM,ΠM\Pi_{M},\Pi'_{M} performed on the qubit MM. For any state ρSM\rho_{SM} and for arbitrary ΠS,ΠS\Pi_{S},\Pi'_{S} and ΠM,ΠM\Pi_{M},\Pi'_{M}, the knowledge excesses satisfy the following inequality ΔK2(ΠMΠS)+ΔK2(ΠMΠS)(Bmax/2)2{\bf \Delta K}^{2}(\Pi_{M}\to \Pi_{S})+{\bf \Delta K}^{2} (\Pi'_{M}\to \Pi'_{S})\leq (B_{max}/2)^2, where BmaxB_{max} is maximum of violation of Bell inequalities under single-copy local operations (local filtering and unitary transformations). Particularly, for the Bell-diagonal states only an appropriate choice of the measurements ΠS,ΠS\Pi_{S},\Pi'_{S} and ΠM,ΠM\Pi_{M},\Pi'_{M} are sufficient to saturate the inequality.
