摘要: We propose a family of Hardy-type tests for an arbitrary n-partite system, which can detect different degrees of non-locality ranging from standard to genuine multipartite non-locality. For any non-signaling m-local hidden variable model, the corresponding tests fail, whereas a pass of this type of test indicates that this state is m non-local. We show that any entangled generalized GHZ state exhibits Hardy's non-locality for each rank of multipartite non-locality. Furthermore, for the detection of m non-localities, a family of Bell-type inequalities based on our test is constructed. Numerical results show that it is more efficient than the inequalities proposed in[Phys. Rev. A 94 022110 (2016)].
