Bell non-locality using tensor networks and sparse recovery

Bell's theorem, stating that quantum predictions are incompatible with a local hidden variable description, is a cornerstone of quantum theory and at the center of many quantum information processing protocols. Over the years, different perspectives on non-locality have been put forward as well as different ways to to detect non-locality and quantify it. Unfortunately and in spite of its relevance, as the complexity of the Bell scenario increases, deciding whether a given observed correlation is non-local becomes computationally intractable. Here, we propose to analyse a Bell scenario as a tensor network, a perspective permitting to test and quantify non-locality resorting to very efficient algorithms originating from compressed sensing and that offer a significant speedup in comparison with standard linear programming methods. Furthermore, it allows to prove that non-signalling correlations can be described by hidden variable models governed by a quasi-probability.
