Quantum nonlocality and topological quantum phase transitions in the extended Ising chain.

We use two-site quantum nonlocality to identify the topological quantum phase transitions (TQPTs) of the extended Ising model driven by varying system parameters. We investigate how the system parameters, including the anisotropies of the nearest-neighbor and the next-nearest-neighbor spin pairs, the transverse magnetic field, and the three-spin interaction, affect the quantum nonlocality. We show that the nonlocality cannot mark any TQPTs while its first derivative can perfectly characterize the TQPTs.
