Bounds and Inequalities > s.a. quantum correlations [measures].
* Tsirelson (Cirel'son) bound: A bound on the strength of quantum mechanical correlations, that can be derived using the principle of information causality; The absolute value of the combination of quantum correlations appearing in the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality is bounded by 2√2.
* Stronger-than-quantum correlations: Note that work on these theories usually assumes that they are non-signaling.
* Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality: A combination of quantum correlations can give values between the classical bound, 2, and Tsire'son's bound, 2√2.
