We investigate the genuine multipartite nonlocality of three-mode Gaussian states of continuous variable systems. For pure states, we present a simplified procedure to obtain the maximum violation of the Svetlichny inequality based on displaced parity measurements, and we analyze its interplay with genuine tripartite entanglement measured via Rényi-2 entropy. The maximum Svetlichny violation admits tight upper and lower bounds at fixed tripartite entanglement. For mixed states, no violation is possible when the purity falls below 0.86. We also explore a set of recently derived weaker inequalities for three-way nonlocality, finding violations for all tested pure states. Our results provide a strong signature for the nonclassical and nonlocal nature of Gaussian states despite their positive Wigner function, and lead to precise recipes for its experimental verification.
我们研究了连续变量系统三模高斯态的真正多体非局域性。对于纯态,我们提出了一种简化的方法,基于位移奇偶测量来获得 Svetlichny 不等式的最大违反,并分析了它与通过 Renyi-2 熵测量的真正三体纠缠之间的相互作用。在固定三体纠缠的情况下,最大 Svetlichny 违反允许有严格的上限和下限。对于混合态,当纯度低于 0.86 时,不可能违反。我们还研究了一组最近推导出的用于三方非局域性的较弱不等式,发现所有测试的纯态都存在违反。尽管高斯态的 Wigner 函数为正,但我们的结果为其非经典和非局域性质提供了强有力的特征,并为其实验验证提供了精确的方法。
