Existence of strongly nonlocal sets of three states in any N-partite system
Abstract: The notion of strong nonlocality, which refers to local irreducibility of a set of orthogonal multipartite quantum states across each bipartition of the subsystems, was put forward by Halder et al. in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 122, 040403 (2019)]. Here, we show the existence of three orthogonal quantum states in (C2){\otimes N} that cannot be perfectly distinguished locally across any bipartition of the subsystems. Specifically, all these three states are genuinely entangled, among which two are the N-qubit GHZ pairs. Since any three locally indistinguishable states are always locally irreducible, the three N-partite orthogonal states we present are strongly nonlocal. Thus, the caridnality of strongly nonlocal sets here is dramatically smaller than all known ones.
