We study the relative strength of classical and quantum correlations, as measured by discord, for two-qubit states. Quantum correlations appear only in the presence of classical correlations, while the reverse is not always true. We…

We provide experimental evidence of quantum features in bi-partite states classified as entirely classical according to a conventional criterion based on the Glauber P-function but possessing non-zero Gaussian quantum discord. Their quantum…

A behavioral quantum strategy is shown to replicate the payoff of a classical mixed strategy in an extensive-form game with imperfect recall, using only local measurements on a separable quantum state with zero entanglement and nonzero…
