Temporal Bell inequalities, or Leggett-Garg Inequalities (LGI), are studied for continuous-variable systems placed in a squeezed state. The importance of those systems lies in their broad applicability which allows the description of many…

We investigate the Leggett-Garg inequalities (LGIs) for a boson system whose observables are given by deforming the Pegg-Barnett phase operators. We consider two observables and show that the quantum Fourier transform is useful in the…

We derive a set of Leggett-Garg inequalities (temporal Bell's inequalities) for the moment generating function of charge transferred through a conductor. Violation of these inequalities demonstrates the absence of a macroscopic-real…

The Leggett-Garg (LG) inequalities were introduced to test for the possible presence of macroscopic quantum coherence. Since such effects may be found in various types of macroscopic oscillators, we consider the application of the LG…

In contrast to the spatial Bell's inequalities, which probe entanglement between spatially-separated systems, the Leggett-Garg inequalities test the correlations of a single system measured at different times. Violation of a genuine…

We investigate the violation of the Leggett-Garg inequalities for a harmonic oscillator in various quantum states. We focus on the two-time quasi-probability distribution function with a dichotomic variable constructed with the position…

The Leggett-Garg inequalities serve to test whether or not quantum correlations in time can be explained within a classical macrorealistic framework. We apply this test to thermodynamics and derive a set of Leggett- Garg inequalities for…

We investigate the violation of the Leggett-Garg inequalities for a quantum field, focusing on the two-time quasi-probability distribution function of the dichotomic variable with a coarse-grained scalar field. The Leggett-Garg inequalities…

In this study, we determine a violation of the Leggett-Garg inequalities due to gravitational interaction in a hybrid system consisting of a harmonic oscillator and a spatially localized superposed particle. The violation of the…

We consider a macroscopic quantum system in a tilted double-well potential. By solving Hamiltonian equation, we obtain tunneling probabilities which contain oscillation effects. To show how one can decide between quantum mechanics and the…

Leggett-Garg inequalities are tests of macroscopic realism that can be violated by quantum mechanics. In this letter, we realise photonic Leggett-Garg tests on a three-level system and implement measurements that admit three distinct…

We show violations of Leggett-Garg inequalities to be possible for single-mode cat-states evolving dynamically in the presence of a nonlinear quantum interaction arising from, for instance, a Kerr medium. In order to prove the results, we…

We formulate a spatial extension of the Leggett-Garg inequality by considering three distant observers locally measuring a many-body system at three subsequent times. The spatial form, in particular, is specially suited to analyze…

The Leggett-Garg Inequality (LGI) constrains, under certain fundamental assumptions, the correlations between measurements of a quantity Q at different times. Here we analyze the LGI, and propose similar but somewhat more elaborate…

We investigate the violation of Leggett-Garg (LG) inequalities inquantum dots with the stationarity assumption. By comparing two types of LG inequalities, we find a better one which is easier to be tested in experiment. In addition, we show…

The usual formulation of Macrorealism is recast to make this notion fully concurrent with the basic ideas behind classical physics. The assumption of non-invasiveness of measurements is dropped. Instead, it is assumed that the current state…

As is well known, the macroscopic realism and the noninvasive measurability together lead to Leggett-Garg inequalities violated by quantum mechanics. We consider tests of the Leggett-Garg type with use of the $q$-entropies. For all…
