Abstract

We use the reduced density matrix of the two-particle spin state to construct a generalized Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality. For each specific state and under a special choice of the vectors \(\vec a, \vec b\), this inequality becomes an exact equality. We show how such vectors can be found using the reduced density matrix. Both sides of this equality have a specific numerical value. We indicate the connection of this number with the measure of entanglement of the two-particle spin state.
