a
The outputs satisfy
a⊕b=xy,
(1)
and each allowed pair occurs with probability 1/2. This is a Popescu–Rohrlich box. For either party, summing over the remote output gives a uniform local bit:
P(a=0∣x,y)=P(a=1∣x,y)=21​,
(2)
independently of y, and similarly for Bob independently of x. The device is therefore a no-signalling box and does not necessarily permit superluminal signalling, despite correlations stronger than quantum theory allows.
