In particular, this shows that the set of (tensor-product) quantum correlations is not closed. The constructed non-local game provides another counterexample to the \"middle\" Tsirelson problem, with a shorter proof than our previous paper (though at the loss of the universal embedding theorem). We also show that it is undecidable to determine if a linear system game can be played perfectly with a limit of finite-dimensional quantum strategies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-03-24T22:44:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum correlations", "finite-dimensional quantum strategies", "linear system non-local game", "finite-dimensional hilbert space", "linear system game" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
