Department of Mathematics. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Department of Mathematics. Mathematics. Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Mathematics, 2015. Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 99-101). We study optimal and nearly-optimal quantum strategies for non-local XOR games. First, we prove the following general result: for every non-local XOR game, there exists a set of relations with the properties: (1) a quantum strategy is optimal for the game if and only if it satisfies the relations, and (2) a quantum strategy is nearly optimal for the game if and only if it approximately satisfies the relations. Next, we focus attention on a specific infinite family of XOR games: the CHSH(n) games. This family generalizes the well-known CHSH game. We describe the general form of CHSH(n) optimal strategies. Then, we adapt the concept of intertwining operator from representation theory and use that to characterize nearly-optimal CHSH(n) strategies by Dimiter Ostrev. Ph.
