Abstract:
We investigate the non-locality distributions among multi-qubit systems based on the maximal violations of the CHSH inequality of the reduced pairwise qubit systems. We present a trade-off relation satisfied by these maximal violations, which gives rise to restrictions on the distribution of non-locality among the sub-qubit systems. For a three-qubit system, it is impossible that all pair of qubits violate the CHSH inequality, and once a pair of qubits violates the CHSH inequality maximally, the other two pairs of qubits must both obey the CHSH inequality. Detailed examples are given to display the trade-off relations, and the trade-off relations are generalized to arbitrary multi-qubit systems.
