LF6-6: the partial-Schmidt (non-maximally-entangled) two-qubit correlation #
Category: 6-Local (extends the LF6-D entangled tier beyond the maximally-entangled family).
LF6-D's non-factorisation runs on the maximally-entangled state Ψ_d (equal Schmidt coefficients),
whose two-qubit sector is the Bell Φ⁺. This module takes the first step beyond maximal
entanglement: the general real-Schmidt two-qubit state Ψ(c,s) = c|00⟩ + s|11⟩ (c² + s² = 1), and
derives its Hilbert-space Pauli correlation in closed form:
⟨Ψ(c,s) | σ·a ⊗ σ·b | Ψ(c,s)⟩ = a_z b_z + 2cs·(a_x b_x − a_y b_y).
The coefficient's magnitude 2|cs| is the concurrence (the entanglement measure; = 2cs
in the canonical Schmidt form c, s ≥ 0): it is 1 at the
maximally-entangled point c = s = 1/√2, where the correlation collapses to Φ⁺'s
a_x b_x − a_y b_y + a_z b_z (psQubit_pauli_correlation_maximal), and 0 for a product state
(c or s = 0). So this makes explicit where maximal entanglement enters the LF6-D correlation.
Honest scope #
- Delivered (the correlation, general partial-Schmidt): the Hilbert-space Pauli correlation of an
arbitrary real-Schmidt two-qubit state,
psQubit_pauli_correlation, computed from the Hilbert space (psExpectation_formula+ thepauliDotentries), with the maximal-entanglement reduction toΦ⁺(psQubit_pauli_correlation_maximal). This extends the LF6 correlation content past equal Schmidt coefficients. - The non-factorisation witness (now discharged in
LF6/GisinTheorem.lean): forcing non-factorisation for unequal Schmidt coefficients (c ≠ s) needs a Bell violation for a non-maximally-entangled state. The LF6-DreflectXZ → singletCHSH reduction is specific toΦ⁺(equal weights) and the CGLMP Dirichlet-kernel closed form to the equal diagonal amplitudes(√d)⁻¹; neither ports. The general witness is Gisin's theorem —GisinTheorem.gisin_chsh_violationbuilds it directly on thepsQubit_pauli_correlationcomputed here: from the state-dependence, the concurrence2cs > 0yields explicit detector settings with CHSH value2√(1+(2cs)²) > 2.

The partial-Schmidt two-qubit state Ψ(c,s) = c|00⟩ + s|11⟩ (real Schmidt coefficients) on
EuclideanSpace ℂ (Fin 2 × Fin 2). Maximally entangled at c = s = 1/√2 (= Φ⁺), a product state at
c = 0 or s = 0.

Instances For
The partial-Schmidt expectation formula. On Ψ(c,s) the expectation of an arbitrary
(Fin 2 × Fin 2)-indexed matrix reduces to the four diagonal-support entries weighted by the Schmidt
products c², cs, sc, s². The 12 of 16 double-sum terms vanish (each has a Ψ(0,1) = 0 or
Ψ(1,0) = 0 factor); the c, s are real, so star acts trivially. Mirrors
phiPlus_expectation_formula with the two unequal amplitudes c, s.
The raw (pre-normalisation) partial-Schmidt Pauli correlation:
⟨Ψ(c,s)|σ·a ⊗ σ·b|Ψ(c,s)⟩ = (c²+s²)·a_z b_z + 2cs·(a_x b_x − a_y b_y).
The partial-Schmidt two-qubit Pauli correlation (the genuine Hilbert-space computation,
generalising phiPlus_pauli_correlation beyond maximal entanglement). For c² + s² = 1:
⟨Ψ(c,s) | σ·a ⊗ σ·b | Ψ(c,s)⟩ = a_z b_z + 2cs·(a_x b_x − a_y b_y).
The coefficient's magnitude 2|cs| is the concurrence (= 2cs in the canonical Schmidt form
c, s ≥ 0): 1 at maximal entanglement (c = s = 1/√2), 0 at a product state. This makes explicit where the Schmidt spectrum enters the LF6-D Φ⁺ correlation.
Maximal-entanglement reduction: Ψ(1/√2, 1/√2) = Φ⁺. At the maximally-entangled point the
partial-Schmidt correlation collapses to Φ⁺'s a_x b_x − a_y b_y + a_z b_z (concurrence 2cs = 1),
recovering phiPlus_pauli_correlation. So Φ⁺ is the equal-Schmidt-coefficient special case.
