Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) studies the temporal correlation in the evolution of physical systems. Classical systems obey the LGI but quantum systems may violate it. The extent of the violation depends on the dimension of the quantum…

In 1985, Leggett and Garg formulated a class of inequalities for testing the compatibility between macrorealism and quantum mechanics. In this paper, we point out that based on the same assumptions of macrorealism that are used in the…
