Description
Summary:Abstract This study investigates the nonlocality characteristics of output states produced by a universal quantum cloning machine, with particular emphasis on the Bell-CHSH inequality violations exhibited by the two-qubit reduced states of cloned outputs. Through systematic analysis, we identify the parameter regimes where these reduced states can effectively serve as quantum channels for teleportation protocols. Our results demonstrate that within specific operational ranges of the cloning machine parameters, the two-qubit reduced states are suitable for quantum teleportation but do not exhibit violations of Bell-CHSH inequalities. Furthermore, we quantitatively characterize the monogamy relations governing Bell-CHSH violations in quantum cloning states across different parameter configurations, revealing fundamental constraints on nonlocality distribution in cloned quantum systems.
