Bell's theorem : pre- and post-digitization

In summary, Bell's theorem, also known as Bell's inequality, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics that describes the relationship between physical systems that are separated in space and time. It states that certain predictions made by quantum mechanics cannot be reproduced by classical theories. In the context of Bell's theorem, pre-digitization refers to the state of a physical system before it is measured or observed, while post-digitization refers to the state of a physical system after it has been measured or observed. Bell's theorem has significant implications in the field of quantum mechanics and has led to important developments in quantum computing, cryptography, and other technologies. It has also been applied in various fields, including quantum cryptography, quantum teleportation, and quantum computing, as well

The CHSH version of Bell's theorem uses a digitization to obtain integer results in the set made of 1,-1, and then sums 4 of them.

Could it be that digitizing after the sum gives a higher result since for example instead of subtracting 1 one would subtract only .2 for example ?

How? Please describe specifically what "digitization" you think is going on (where "specifically" means "point out the explicit steps in the math"). And please give a specific reference for where you are getting your description of the CHSH version of Bell's Theorem.

1. What is Bell's theorem?

Bell's theorem, also known as Bell's inequality, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics that states that certain correlations between particles cannot be explained by classical physics. It was proposed by physicist John Stewart Bell in 1964.

2. What is pre-digitization in the context of Bell's theorem?

Pre-digitization refers to the state of a quantum system before it is measured or observed. In Bell's theorem, pre-digitization refers to the state of entangled particles before they are measured, and it is used to demonstrate the violation of classical physics predictions.

3. What is post-digitization in the context of Bell's theorem?

Post-digitization refers to the state of a quantum system after it has been measured or observed. In Bell's theorem, post-digitization refers to the measurement outcomes of entangled particles, which are used to test the violation of classical physics predictions.

4. How does digitization affect Bell's theorem?

Digitization, or the process of measuring or observing a quantum system, is crucial in Bell's theorem as it allows for the comparison of the pre-digitization state and the post-digitization measurement outcomes. This comparison is used to demonstrate the violation of classical physics predictions and the validity of quantum mechanics.

5. What are the implications of Bell's theorem?

The implications of Bell's theorem are significant in understanding the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. It shows that classical physics cannot fully explain the behavior of particles at the quantum level and that there is a fundamental randomness in the universe. It also has practical applications in quantum computing and cryptography.
