"Complete characterization of perfect quantum strategies in quantum magic rectangle games"  

Abstract: In this talk, I will present a complete structural characterization of perfect quantum strategies for arbitrary quantum magic rectangle games. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions on the shared state and measurement operators, revealing the algebraic–combinatorial structure required for perfect correlations. We also show that no perfect quantum strategy exists for (2\times n) magic rectangle games with odd (n), and discuss how this result extends to the non-perfect regime. 

Bio: Evelyn Wu is a 3rd year physics graduate student working in Bryan Clark's group researching quantum algorithms.
