We present a generalized Bell inequality for two entangled quNits. On one quNit the choice is between two standard von Neumann measurements, whereas for the other quNit there are N^2 different binary measurements. These binary measurements are related to the intermediate states known from eavesdropping in quantum cryptography. The maximum violation by \sqrt{N} is reached for the maximally entangled state. Moreover, for N=2 it coincides with the familiar CHSH-inequality.

In this paper, we outline a scheme for the entanglement swapping procedure based on cavity quantum electrodynamics using the Jaynes–Cummings model consisting of the coherent and photon-added coherent states. In particular, utilizing the photon-added coherent states ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the Glauber coherent state) in the scheme, enables us to investigate the effect of [Formula: see text], i.e., the number of excitations corresponding to the photon-added coherent field on the entanglement swapping process. In the scheme, two two-level atoms [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are initially entangled together, and distinctly two exploited cavity fields [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are prepared in an entangled state (a combination of coherent and photon-added coherent states). Interacting the atom [Formula: see text] with field [Formula: see text] (via the Jaynes–Cummings model) and then making detection on them, transfers the entanglement from the two atoms [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and the two fields [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] to the atom-field “[Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]”, i.e., entanglement swapping occurs. In the continuation, we pay our attention to the evaluation of the fidelity of the swapped entangled state relative to a suitable maximally entangled state, success probability of the performed detections and linear entropy as the degree of entanglement of the swapped entangled state. It is demonstrated that, an increase in the number of excitations, [Formula: see text], leads to the increment of fidelity as well as the amount of entanglement. According to our numerical results, the maximum values of fidelity (linear entropy) 0.98 (0.46) is obtained for [Formula: see text], however, the maximum value of success probability does not significantly change by increasing [Formula: see text].

Abstract We introduce a new state called photon-added-and-subtracted two modes pair coherent state (PAASTMPCS) by simultaneously adding and subtracting photons to the different modes of a pair coherent state. Its nonclassical and non-Gaussian properties are strengthened via the negative values of its Wigner function as the numbers of adding and subtracting photons are increased. It indicates that the PAASTMPCS is an entangled state. When increasing the numbers of photon-added and photon-subtracted to a pair coherent state, the degree of entanglement in the PAASTMPCS is enhanced compared with the original pair coherent state. By using a PAASTMPCS as a non-Gaussian entangled resource, the quantum teleportation processes are studied in detail. It is shown that the number sum and phase difference measurements protocol is more appropriate than the orthogonal quadrature components measurements protocol in the quantum teleportation process of a coherent state.
