No-signalling-projection-invariant Bell inequalities

Abstract In this paper, we highlight how any Bell inequality for a configuration involving n parties each performing one of m binary-outcome measurements has a canonical form that is no-signalling-projection invariant. Specifically, the L 2 -projection of weakly signalling data onto the no-signalling polytope leaves the violation of this canonical Bell inequality unchanged. Our methods allow us to derive a general closed formula for the projection and present a substantially more computationally simple procedure for its evaluation. We also show this can be generalised to non-standard projections of potential interest for certain applications. No-signalling projections serve as a preliminary step before undertaking any device-independent application involving Bell experiment data, such as hypothesis testing against local realism, random number generation and entanglement detection.
