Tsirelson's Bound and the Quantum Monogamy Bound from Global Determinism

Abstract

We demonstrate that in a globally deterministic universe, all spatiotemporally symmetric processes must obey counterfactual parameter independence. We show that the Tsirelson bound can be derived from counterfactual parameter independence. We show that the quantum monogamy bound can also be obtained from global determinism, and then then use these results to propose a novel solution to the horizon problem. We also explain how global determinism relates to contextuality in quantum mechanics.
