aiqbench analysis
This research eliminates the restrictive assumption of symmetric projective maximally entangled (PME) states in robust self-testing protocols for non-local games. By proving that perfect synchronous games apply to all quantum strategies via an operator-algebraic approach, the study significantly broadens the physical relevance and scope of device verification methods. The work also establishes the Quantum Low Degree Test as efficient for n-qubit systems, advancing our ability to assess quantum hardware without idealized constraints.
Quantum self-testing no longer relies on ideal entanglement

New research lifts restrictions on robust self-testing in non-local games, proving any perfect synchronous game certified with PME strategies works for all strategies.
