Classical probability theory can be represented with measure spaces and functions over them. Quantum Probability is given as the theory of Hilbert spaces and operators over them. Both more abstractly are handled by the theory of C*-algebras and their duals.

However I know of no structure for Super-Quantum Correlations violating Tsirelson's bound, such as those found in PR boxes. I've always seen them presented merely as a matrix of probabilities attached to events, but never seen a general mathematical theory. I was just wondering if there is one?

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
