Optimal classical-communication-assisted local model of n-qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger correlations
We present a model, motivated by the criterion of reality put forward by
Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen and supplemented by classical communication,
which correctly reproduces the quantum-mechanical predictions for measurements
of all products of Pauli operators on an n-qubit GHZ state (or ``cat state'').
The n-2 bits employed by our model are shown to be optimal for the allowed set
of measurements, demonstrating that the required communication overhead scales
linearly with n. We formulate a connection between the generation of the local
values utilized by our model and the stabilizer formalism, which leads us to
conjecture that a generalization of this method will shed light on the content
of the Gottesman-Knill theorem.Comment: New version - expanded and revised to address referee comment
