 Schmidt-basis Pauli correlation tensor

For the pure state ${\lambda }_0|00⟩+{\lambda }_1|11⟩$ with real normalized Schmidt coefficients, the two-body Pauli correlators form $T=\mathrm{diag}(s,-s,1)$, $s=2{\lambda }_0{\lambda }_1$. Thus arbitrary local axes give $⟨(\mathbf{a}\cdot \sigma )\otimes (\mathbf{b}\cdot \sigma )⟩=s(a_x{b}_x-a_y{b}_y)+a_z{b}_z$. The negative $yy$ component follows from the phases in the Pauli operators.
