Quantum bounds for compiled XOR games and <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>d</mml:mi> </mml:math> -outcome CHSH games
Nonlocal games play a crucial role in quantum information theory and have numerous applications in certification and cryptographic protocols. Kalai et al. (STOC 2023) introduced a procedure to compile a nonlocal game into a single-prover interactive proof, using a quantum homomorphic encryption scheme, and showed that their compilation method preserves the classical bound of the game. Natarajan and Zhang (FOCS 2023) then showed that the quantum bound is preserved for the specific case of the CHSH game. Extending the proof techniques of Natarajan and Zhang, we show that the compilation procedure of Kalai et al. preserves the quantum bound for two classes of games: bipartite XOR games and a higher dimensional generalization of CHSH (the SATWAP inequality), that we refer to as d-outcome CHSH games. We also establish that, for any pair of qubit measurements, there exists a compiled XOR game such that its near-optimal winning probability serves as a robust selftest for that particular pair of measurements. Finally, we derive computational self-testing of three anticommuting qubit observables, based on the compilation of the nonlocal game corresponding to the so-called elegant Bell inequality.
