We consider an analogue of entanglement-swapping for a set of black boxes with the most general non-local correlations consistent with relativity (including correlations which are stronger than any attainable in quantum theory). In an attempt to incorporate this phenomenon, we consider expanding the space of objects to include not only correlated boxes, but `couplers', which are an analogue for boxes of measurements with entangled eigenstates in quantum theory. Surprisingly, we find that no couplers exist for two binary-input/binary-output boxes, and hence that there is no analogue of entanglement-swapping for such boxes.

  1. The most discriminable quantum states in the multicopy regime

    k-designs achieve maximal discriminability for pure states in multi-copy minimum-error discrimination; mixed states outperform for larger ensembles, with quantum offering quadratic advantage over classical.
