Internal nonlocality in generally dilated Hermiticity

Quantum Physics 2022-06-20 v3

Abstract

According to von Neumann, the global Hamiltonian of whole universe must be Hermitian in order to keep the eigenvalues real and to construct a self-consistent quantum theory. In addition to the open system approach by introducing environmental degrees of freedom to a small system, a global Hermitian Hamiltonian can also be generated through the dilation from a small Hilbert space. For example, a local non-Hermitian PT\cal PT-symmetric system can be simulated with a global Hermitian one by the Naimark dilation. When shared by Alice and Bob, the internal nonlocality in such dilated Hermitian systems is revealed recently, but only with a two-fold structure. In this paper, we extend such a discussion to the generalized case when the two-fold structure breaks. The internal nonlocality is discussed with different correlation pictures and the corresponding correlation bounds. Our results provide a device-independent test on the reliability of the simulation in the global Hermiticity.
