Bell's theorem, a landmark result in the foundations of physics, establishes that quantum mechanics is a non-local theory. It asserts, in particular, that two spatially separated, but entangled, quantum systems can be correlated in a way that cannot be mimicked by classical systems. A direct operational consequence of Bell's theorem is the existence of statistical tests which can detect the presence of entanglement. Remarkably, certain correlations not only witness entanglement, but they give quantitative bounds on the minimum dimension of quantum systems attaining them. In this work, we show that there exists a correlation which is not attainable by quantum systems of any arbitrary finite dimension, but is attained exclusively by infinite-dimensional quantum systems (such as infinite-level systems arising from quantum harmonic oscillators). This answers the long-standing open question about the existence of a finite correlation witnessing infinite entanglement.

:贝尔定理是物理学基础上的一个里程碑式的结果,它确立了量子力学是一种非局部理论。它特别指出,两个空间上分离但纠缠的量子系统可以以经典系统无法模仿的方式相互关联。贝尔定理的直接运算结果是统计检验的存在,该检验可以检测到纠缠的存在。值得注意的是,某些关联不仅证明了纠缠,而且还给出了达到它们的量子系统的最小维度的定量界限。在这项工作中,我们表明存在一个相关性,这是任何任意有限维的量子系统都无法实现的,而只能通过无限维的量子系统(例如由量子谐波振荡器产生的无限级系统)才能实现。这回答了关于存在无限纠缠的有限相关性的长期存在的开放性问题。
