No Bipartite-Nonlocal Causal Theory Can Explain Nature's Correlations
read the original abstract
We show that some tripartite quantum correlations are inexplicable by any causal theory involving bipartite nonclassical common causes and unlimited shared randomness. This constitutes a device-independent proof that Nature's nonlocality is fundamentally at least tripartite in every conceivable physical theory - no matter how exotic. To formalize this claim we are compelled to substitute Svetlichny's historical definition of genuine tripartite nonlocality with a novel theory-agnostic definition tied to the framework of Local Operations and Shared Randomness (LOSR). A companion article [PRA. 104, 052207 (2021)] generalizes these concepts to any number of parties, providing experimentally amenable device-independent inequality constraints along with quantum correlations violating them, thereby certifying that Nature's nonlocality must be boundlessly multipartite.
