Bell inequalities for arbitrary situations

Description

We present a simple way based on the joint global probability distribution to derive CHSH inequalities. Inspired by this derivation we develop a simple method that gives a set of conditions which are necessary for a model to be a local variable theory. This method generates candidate Bell inequalities for models of arbitrary situations in which there are an arbitrary number of particles, measurements and outcomes. With the help of a type of distribution it will be clear that all necessary conditions are Bell inequalities. This work gives a unified way to write Bell inequalities for arbitrary situations. - Highlights: • Constructing CHSH inequalities based on joint global probability distribution. • Constructing conditions which are necessary for a model to be local and realistic. • Bell inequalities for general situations
