Deriving quantum theory from its local structure and reversibility
  We investigate the class of physical theories with the same local structure as quantum theory, but a potentially different global structure. It has previously been shown that any bipartite correlations generated by such a theory must be simulatable in quantum theory, but that this does not hold for tripartite correlations. Here we explore whether imposing an additional constraint on this space of theories - that of dynamical reversibility - will allow us to recover the global quantum structure. In the particular case in which the local systems are identical qubits, we show that any theory admitting at least one continuous reversible interaction must be identical to quantum theory.
