Abstract

We relate the nonlocal properties of noisy entangled states to Grothendieck's constant, a mathematical constant appearing in Banach space theory. For two-qubit Werner states rho<sub>p</sub><sup>W</sup>=p|psi–><psi–|+(1–p)[openface 1]/4, we show that there is a local model for projective measurements if and only if p<=1/KG(3), where KG(3) is Grothendieck's constant of order 3. Known bounds on KG(3) prove the existence of this model at least for p<~0.66, quite close to the current region of Bell violation, p~0.71. We generalize this result to arbitrary quantum states.
