Mermin's inequalities of multiple qubits with orthogonal measurements on IBM Q 53‐qubit system
Open accessAbstract
Entanglement properties of IBM Q 53-qubit quantum computer are carefully examined with the noisy intermediate-scale quantum technology. We study Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-like states with multiple qubits (N = 2 to N = 7) on IBM Rochester and compare their maximal violation values of Mermin's polynomials with analytic results. A rule of N-qubits orthogonal measurements is taken to further justify the entanglement less than maximal values of local realism. The orthogonality of measurements is another reliable criterion for entanglement except the maximal values of LR. Our results indicate that the entanglement of IBM 53 qubits is reasonably good when N ≤ 4, while for the longer entangle chains, the entanglement is only valid for some special connectivity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
