Part 1 — Games, direct repetition, commuting-operator strategies, ω^co #
A finite two-player one-round game G = (X, Y, A, B, μ, V):
finite nonempty question sets X, Y and answer sets A, B (nonemptiness is
assumed at the theorems that need it), a probability distribution μ on
X × Y given by questionWeight, and an acceptance function
payoff = V(a, b | x, y) ∈ [0,1].
[02_preliminaries.tex, "Games and direct repetition"; audit def game]
Instances For
Direct n-fold repetition G^{⊗n}: product question law on
(Fin n → X) × (Fin n → Y) and product acceptance
V^{⊗n}(a^n, b^n | x^n, y^n) = ∏ᵢ V(aᵢ, bᵢ | xᵢ, yᵢ).
n = 0 is a total-function extension outside the paper's n ≥ 1 scope
(empty products; the main theorem hypothesizes 1 ≤ n).

Instances For
A commuting-operator strategy over question alphabets X, Y and answer
alphabets A, B: a complex Hilbert space H, a unit vector ψ, and
POVM families E x (Alice) and F y (Bob) of positive continuous linear
maps summing to 1, with every Alice effect commuting with every Bob
effect. [02_preliminaries.tex; audit def commuting_strategy]
- H : Type u

- completeSpace : CompleteSpace self.H
- ψ : self.H
Instances For
The correlation table of a strategy:
p(a, b | x, y) = ⟪ψ, E_x^a F_y^b ψ⟫ (a real number; the inner product is
real because the commuting product of self-adjoint effects is
self-adjoint). [02_preliminaries.tex, success-probability display]
Instances For
A correlation table on alphabets X, Y, A, B.
Equations
- MainStatement.Correlation X Y A B = (X → Y → A → B → ℝ)
Instances For
Realizability by a commuting-operator strategy at universe 0 (the
Hilbert space is a Type; the restriction is disclosed in DIFFERENCES.md,
D1, and is content-free for the finite alphabets in scope).
Equations
- MainStatement.IsCommutingCorrelation p = ∃ (S : MainStatement.CommutingStrategy X Y A B), S.correlation = p
Instances For
Expected payoff of a correlation in the game G:
win_G(p) = ∑ μ(x,y) V(a,b|x,y) p(a,b|x,y) — a linear functional of the
correlation table.
Equations
Instances For
The commuting-operator value ω^co(G): the supremum of winning
probabilities over commuting-operator strategies.
[02_preliminaries.tex, "The supremum of this expression is the commuting
value"; non-attainment is never assumed anywhere downstream.]

Part 2 — The tracial standard form and Lin's density theorem #
Algebraic positivity: a is a finite sum of hermitian squares
∑ᵢ cᵢ* cᵢ — the algebraic positive cone of a ∗-ring. In a C*-algebra
this coincides with the usual positive cone. [DIFFERENCES.md D13]
Instances For
Standard form of a tracial ∗-algebra: carrier A with a normalized
trace τ, the GNS Hilbert space H = L²(A, τ) with dense embedding ι,
commuting left and right actions L, R, and the evaluation identities.

ℓ¹ distance between two correlation tables on common finite alphabets.
Equations
- MainStatement.l1Dist p q = ∑ x : X, ∑ y : Y, ∑ a : A, ∑ b : B, |p x y a b - q x y a b|
Instances For
A tracially embeddable correlation on common alphabets, in the exact
shape of Lin's Definition 3.1: standard form of a tracial algebra, density
σ ∈ M₊ with τ(σ²) = 1, Alice POVMs in M acting on the left, Bob
POVMs given by positive operators in the COMMUTANT of the left action.
Instances For
The correlation table realized by a tracially embeddable strategy in
commutant form: p(a, b | x, y) = ⟪ι σ, L(E_x^a) G_y^b (ι σ)⟫.
Equations
Instances For
Lin's tracial density theorem (arXiv:2304.01940, Thm 3.2): for all
finite common alphabets, every commuting-operator correlation is an ℓ¹-limit
of tracially embeddable correlations. The name says "hypothesis" for
historical reasons — it was the manuscript's one external input, and the
name is load-bearing for scripts/statement_copy_check.py and the fidelity
ledger — but the development proves it: MainStatement.tracialDensity in
StatementBridge.lean, transferred from
CommutingRepetition.Density.tracialDensity. The main theorem therefore
takes no hypothesis.

Part 3 — The statement #
Uniform direct parallel repetition for commuting-operator
strategies (07_main_theorem.tex, Theorem 7.1), as a proposition: there is
a universal c > 0 such that for every finite game G with payoffs in
[0,1] and every n ≥ 1,
ω^co(G^{⊗n}) ≤ exp(−c·n·ε⁷/(ε + log(|A||B|))) where ε = 1 − ω^co(G)
(when ε = log(|A||B|) = 0 the quotient is 0/0 = 0 in Lean, the
manuscript's convention). Unconditional: Lin's density theorem
(TracialDensityHypothesis above) is itself proved by the development, as
MainStatement.tracialDensity. Proved in StatementBridge.lean.
