Direct parallel repetition for commuting-operator strategies #
The uniform direct parallel repetition theorem for commuting-operator strategies
(blueprint thm:direct-repetition-co), in the vocabulary of this repository, transferred
from the vendored development MIPRE/Background/Repetition/CommutingRepetition/
(Vidick, Uniform direct parallel repetition for two-player commuting-operator
strategies, 2026): there is a universal c > 0 such that for every game G with
nonempty alphabets and every n ≥ 1,
valco(G^{⊗n}) ≤ exp(-c·n·ε⁷/(ε + log(|A||B|))) where ε = 1 - valco(G).
The transfer is a field-by-field identification: a MIPRE.Game is a game of the vendored
development with {0,1}-valued payoff, MIPRE.CommutingOperatorStrategy is its
CommutingStrategy at universe 0, the two suprema defining the value range over the
same set of reals, and the two direct repetitions agree (a product of {0,1}-valued
payoffs is the indicator of the conjunction).
A game of this repository as a game of the vendored development: the decision
predicate becomes a {0,1}-valued payoff.

The value of a strategy is its winning probability in the vendored development.
The commuting-operator value of this repository is the commuting-operator value of the vendored development: the two suprema range over the same set of reals.
The payoff of the repeated game of the vendored development is the indicator of the conjunction of the coordinate predicates.
Uniform direct parallel repetition for commuting-operator strategies (blueprint
thm:direct-repetition-co; Vidick 2026, Theorem 7.1, via the vendored root
CommutingRepetition.uniform_parallel_repetition): there is a universal constant c > 0
such that for every game G with nonempty alphabets and every n ≥ 1,
valco(G^{⊗n}) ≤ exp(-c·n·ε⁷/(ε + log(|A||B|))) with ε = 1 - valco(G) (when
ε = log(|A||B|) = 0 the quotient is 0 / 0 = 0).
