All states are normalized finite-dimensional bipartite density matrices. Gamma denotes transposition of Bob in the fixed product basis. The trace norm is the full trace norm. For a finite Bell expression S with real coefficients, C(S) and Q(S) are its largest signed classical value and its supremal signed quantum value over arbitrary finite local dimensions; Q_S(rho) optimizes complete local POVMs on the fixed state. Let d>=1 and let U=(u_ij) be a d-dimensional unitary with |u_ij|=1/sqrt(d). Define

X=1dd∑i,juij∣ij⟩⟨ji∣,Y=d XΓ,p=1d+1,X=\frac1{d\sqrt d}\sum_{i,j}u_{ij}|ij\rangle\langle ji|,\quad Y=\sqrt d\,X^\Gamma,\quad p=\frac1{\sqrt d+1},X=dd​1​i,j∑​uij​∣ij⟩⟨ji∣,Y=d​XΓ,p=d​+11​, ρp=(1−p)γX+p2(∣01⟩⟨01∣⊗YY†+∣10⟩⟨10∣⊗Y†Y).\rho_p=(1-p)\gamma_X+\frac p2\bigl(|01\rangle\langle01|\otimes\sqrt{YY^\dagger}+|10\rangle\langle10|\otimes\sqrt{Y^\dagger Y}\bigr).ρp​=(1−p)γX​+2p​(∣01⟩⟨01∣⊗YY†​+∣10⟩⟨10∣⊗Y†Y​).

Regroup the registers as AA′:BB′. The constructed rho_p is a density matrix and is PPT. For every nonnegative-coefficient Bell expression,

QS(ρp)≤C(S)+Q(S)d.Q_S(\rho_p)\le C(S)+\frac{Q(S)}{\sqrt d}.QS​(ρp​)≤C(S)+d​Q(S)​.

The printed flat modulus 1/d is corrected to 1/sqrt(d), as required by unitarity and the named Fourier example. Density and PPT are conclusions, not premises. This supplies explicit weakly nonlocal PPT approximate private bits.

The fixed private-bit formula used here is

γX=12(∣00⟩⟨00∣⊗XX†+∣00⟩⟨11∣⊗X+∣11⟩⟨00∣⊗X†+∣11⟩⟨11∣⊗X†X),\gamma_X=\frac12\left(|00\rangle\langle00|\otimes\sqrt{XX^\dagger}+|00\rangle\langle11|\otimes X+|11\rangle\langle00|\otimes X^\dagger+|11\rangle\langle11|\otimes\sqrt{X^\dagger X}\right),γX​=21​(∣00⟩⟨00∣⊗XX†​+∣00⟩⟨11∣⊗X+∣11⟩⟨00∣⊗X†+∣11⟩⟨11∣⊗X†X​),

with the two key qubits and shields regrouped by owner.

What the Lean code literally says, in plain math · gpt-6.1-sol

Let ddd be any positive integer and UUU any d×dd\times dd×d complex unitary matrix satisfying ∣Uij∣=1/d|U_{ij}|=1/\sqrt d∣Uij​∣=1/d​ for every i,ji,ji,j. On Cd⊗Cd\mathbb C^d\otimes\mathbb C^dCd⊗Cd, define X(i,j),(k,l)=Uij/(dd)X_{(i,j),(k,l)}=U_{ij}/(d\sqrt d)X(i,j),(k,l)​=Uij​/(dd​) when (k,l)=(j,i)(k,l)=(j,i)(k,l)=(j,i), and 000 otherwise; put Y=d T2(X)Y=\sqrt d\,T_2(X)Y=d​T2​(X) and p=(d+1)−1p=(\sqrt d+1)^{-1}p=(d​+1)−1, where T2(Z)(i,j),(k,l)=Z(i,l),(k,j)T_2(Z)_{(i,j),(k,l)}=Z_{(i,l),(k,j)}T2​(Z)(i,j),(k,l)​=Z(i,l),(k,j)​. Define Γ\GammaΓ on two parties of local dimension 2d2d2d by grouping their binary indices as a key and taking the nonzero key blocks to be

Γ00,00=1−p2XX†,Γ11,11=1−p2X†X,Γ00,11=1−p2X,Γ11,00=1−p2X†,Γ01,01=p2YY†,Γ10,10=p2Y†Y.\Gamma_{00,00}=\frac{1-p}{2}\sqrt{XX^\dagger},\quad \Gamma_{11,11}=\frac{1-p}{2}\sqrt{X^\dagger X},\quad \Gamma_{00,11}=\frac{1-p}{2}X,\quad \Gamma_{11,00}=\frac{1-p}{2}X^\dagger,\quad \Gamma_{01,01}=\frac p2\sqrt{YY^\dagger},\quad \Gamma_{10,10}=\frac p2\sqrt{Y^\dagger Y}.Γ00,00​=21−p​XX†​,Γ11,11​=21−p​X†X​,Γ00,11​=21−p​X,Γ11,00​=21−p​X†,Γ01,01​=2p​YY†​,Γ10,10​=2p​Y†Y​.

Then Γ\GammaΓ is positive semidefinite of trace 111, and its transpose on the entire second party, including both its binary and ddd-dimensional coordinates, is positive semidefinite. Furthermore, for every Bell scenario with positive finite input and output sizes and every family sxyab≥0s_{xyab}\ge0sxyab​≥0, Vs(Γ)≤Cs+Qs/dV_s(\Gamma)\le C_s+Q_s/\sqrt dVs​(Γ)≤Cs​+Qs​/d​, where VsV_sVs​ is the supremum of ∑sxyabRe⁡tr⁡((Ma∣x⊗Nb∣y)Γ)\sum s_{xyab}\operatorname{Re}\operatorname{tr}((M_{a|x}\otimes N_{b|y})\Gamma)∑sxyab​Retr((Ma∣x​⊗Nb∣y​)Γ) over local positive semidefinite measurement effects summing to the identity, Cs=sup⁡f,g∑x,ysxy,f(x),g(y)C_s=\sup_{f,g}\sum_{x,y}s_{xy,f(x),g(y)}Cs​=supf,g​∑x,y​sxy,f(x),g(y)​, and QsQ_sQs​ is the supremum of the measured expression over all positive finite local dimensions, density matrices, and local measurements. All square roots of matrices are given by functional calculus, and d=1d=1d=1 is included.
