Mermin-Peres Magic Square Game Strategy #

This module defines the layout for the Mermin-Peres magic square Linear Constraint System (LCS) game and provides a valid quantum strategy for it using observables.

It verifies the commutativity requirements (both local within equations and global bipartite commutativity) necessary to define a valid ObservableStrategy.

Layout #

This section defines the layout/geometry of the Mermin-Peres magic square game.

The layout of the Mermin-Peres magic square game. It consists of 6 equations (3 rows and 3 columns) over 9 variables (the cells of the 3x3 grid).

Equations
  • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For

    The support-style magic square game, with the final column equation having odd parity.

      Grid #

      This section defines a strategy for the game from the previous section, given as a grid of observables.

      Each observable in the Mermin-Peres grid is a self-adjoint involution.

      Commutativity #

      This section proves the commutativity properties of the magic square grid.

      These properties are required for the strategy to be valid.

      A tactic for proving pairwise commutativity within one row or column of the square.

        Pairwise fun (j k : (layout.V i)) => Commute (grid j) (grid k)

        For every equation of the layout, the associated grid observables commute pairwise.

        Strategy #

        This section shows that the grid strategy is a valid strategy for the magic square game.

        The Mermin-Peres strategy for the magic square game. This strategy uses BipartiteObservableStrategy to lift the 9 grid observables to a valid bipartite observable strategy on a 16x16 space. It relies on grid_sameEquation_comm to satisfy the commutativity constraints for each equation.
