Abstract: In a recent landmark result [Ji et al., arXiv:2001.04383 (2020)], it was shown that approximating the value of a two-player game is undecidable when the players are allowed to share quantum states of unbounded dimension. In this paper, we study the computational complexity of two-player games when the dimension of the quantum systems is bounded by T. More specifically, we give a semidefinite program of size exp(𝒪(T^{12}(log²(AT)+log(Q)log(AT))/ε²)) to compute additive ε-approximations on the value of two-player free games with T× T-dimensional quantum entanglement, where A and Q denote the number of answers and questions of the game, respectively. For fixed dimension T, this scales polynomially in Q and quasi-polynomially in A, thereby improving on previously known approximation algorithms for which worst-case run-time guarantees are at best exponential in Q and A. For the proof, we make a connection to the quantum separability problem and employ improved multipartite quantum de Finetti theorems with linear constraints that we derive via quantum entropy inequalities.
