New paper out in #PRX_Quantum! 📃📃

We show when a heat-flow reversal is actually a signature of quantum nonclassicality as described by quantum generalized contextuality.

Contextuality in Anomalous Heat Flow
For a class of quantum systems that exhibit contextuality, a rigorous theoretical connection between anomalous heat flow and quantumness is established, thereby opening avenues to explore nonclassical...

Did you know that contextuality of a set of quantum states is precisely captured by notions of antidistinguishability? Find out more in our new paper. Great collaboration with USYD PhD student Maiyuren Srikumar and the brilliant Angela Karanjai.

How contextuality and antidistinguishability are related
Contextuality is a key characteristic that separates quantum from classical phenomena and an important tool in understanding the potential advantage of quantum computation. However, when assessing the...

Yeah, the contextuality of how tasks are expected to be done seems a heavy lift thus far.

now not only have we moved to versions of the internet where the infinite contextuality enabled by hyperlinks has been replaced by context collapse, the old, context-rich parts of the web are falling apart due to linkrot

New open-source Python package ConteXtuAlity enables faster analysis of contextuality in quantum systems using sheaf-theoretic methods. Optimized algorithms reduce computation times from hours to minutes for complex measurement scenarios.

Pavia Develops Open Source Tool For Contextuality Calculations
ConteXtuAlity offers a unified computational approach where previously bespoke scripts were the norm. This open source Python package calculates key quantities related to contextuality, including contextual and signalling fractions, streamlining analysis through sheaf-theoretic frameworks. Benchmarks now reveal performance scaling alongside increasing measurement scenario sizes, facilitating wider exploration of this quantum phenomenon.

Second, the op-ed desk. Oh boy

The NYT opinion section has no editorial standards when it comes to evidence, accuracy, contextuality, or public relevance

Instead, it is best characterized as a branding endeavor for the NYT to virtue-signal, and worse, a mouthpiece for owner class interests

Contextuality is one of the standard features of non-linear dynamical systems.

yes! and what I enjoy most about that kind of contextuality is the way that it allows for *precisely* the kind of ambiguity that we know from the real world—different characters from different backgrounds don't necessarily inhabit the same "world" in many meaningful senses

New preprint out! 🎉

I’ve just submitted my #PhD_thesis to the #arXiv.

Chapter 7 contains several new constructions and a few new results on the geometry of sets of Bargmann invariants. Most notably, in Theorem 7.13 I prove the convexity of a broad class of sets of (tuples of) unitary invariants.
Coherence and contextuality as quantum resources
In this thesis, we explore the intersection of two fundamental subfields of quantum information theory: quantum coherence and contextuality. Despite their apparent differences, both areas address key ...

One of quantum mechanics’ strangest properties may be the secret ingredient that makes powerful #quantum computers possible. Known as contextuality, it plays a central role in error-correcting codes, which protect quantum information from noise. 🧪⚛️ physicsworld.com/a/the-weirdn...

There's a degree of contextuality to when my Keeper uses which pronouns for me. Like when talking about my appearance or my ability in various service tasks, Fae will use 'she' seemingly to emphasize my femininity. And use 'it' when talking about my attachment style, intimacy, or when I'm muzzled...

2. (Sorry these are so slow, trying to do six things at once) We need to have an honest conversation about contextuality in horror movies so we can separate stuff like Dressed To Kill from stuff like Sleepaway Camp and understand rage and dysphoria are omnidirectional forces, not monodirectional.

One of the biggest illusions in kink is that any given action is "essentially" dommy or subby. With the right contextuality you can turn any given interaction into something else.
