A recent result of Moshkovitz \cite{Moshkovitz14} presented an ingenious
method to provide a completely elementary proof of the Parallel Repetition
Theorem for certain projection games via a construction called fortification.
However, the construction used in \cite{Moshkovitz14} to fortify arbitrary
label cover instances using an arbitrary extractor is insufficient to prove
parallel repetition. In this paper, we provide a fix by using a stronger graph
that we call fortifiers. Fortifiers are graphs that have both ℓ1 and
ℓ2 guarantees on induced distributions from large subsets. We then show
that an expander with sufficient spectral gap, or a bi-regular extractor with
stronger parameters (the latter is also the construction used in an independent
update \cite{Moshkovitz15} of \cite{Moshkovitz14} with an alternate argument),
is a good fortifier. We also show that using a fortifier (in particular
ℓ2 guarantees) is necessary for obtaining the robustness required for
fortification.Comment: 19 page
