The Contextuality-by-Default View of the Sheaf-Theoretic Approach to Contextuality
The Sheaf-Theoretic Contextuality (STC) theory developed by Abramsky and colleagues is a very general account of whether multiply overlap** subsets... -
Constraining Meanings With Contextuality
In this paper, we defend two claims. First, we argue that a notion of contextuality that has been formalized in physics and psychology is applicable...
-
Separability, Contextuality, and the Quantum Frame Problem
We study the relationship between assumptions of state separability and both preparation and measurement contextuality, and the relationship of both...
-
Contextuality, Complementarity, and Bell Tests
Starting with highlighting the Bohr complementarity principle, we analyze the notion of contextuality. The latter is understood as the irreducible... -
Contextuality and Dichotomizations of Random Variables
The Contextuality-by-Default approach to determining and measuring the (non)contextuality of a system of random variables requires that every random...

Contents, Contexts, and Basics of Contextuality
This is a non-technical introduction into theory of contextuality. More precisely, it presents the basics of a theory of contextuality called... -
Unraveling the contextuality of adolescents’ interest pursuits in daily life: four latent configurations
While interest pursuits are widely recognized as being inherently contextual, what this contextuality entails for different interests has not been...

Contextuality and Random Variables
ContextualityContextuality is a propertyProperty of systems of random variables. The identity of a random variable in a system is determined by its... -
Closing Bell Boxing Black Box Simulations in the Resource Theory of Contextuality
This chapter contains an exposition of the sheaf-theoretic framework for contextuality emphasising resource-theoretic aspects, as well as some... -
Epistemic odds of contextuality in cyclic systems
Beginning with the Bell theorem, cyclic systems of dichotomous random variables have been the object of many foundational findings in quantum...

Formalization of Bohr’s Contextuality Within the Theory of Open Quantum Systems
In quantum physics, the notion of contextuality has a variety of interpretations, which are typically associated with the names of their inventors,...

Spin and Contextuality in Extended de Broglie-Bohm-Bell Quantum Mechanics
This paper introduces an extension of the de Broglie-Bohm-Bell formulation of quantum mechanics, which includes intrinsic particle degrees of...

Is contextuality about the identity of random variables?
Recent years have seen new general notions of contextuality emerge. Most of these employ context-independent symbols to represent random variables in...

Duality, Intensionality, and Contextuality: Philosophy of Category Theory and the Categorical Unity of Science in Samson Abramsky
Science does not exist in vacuum; it arises and works in context. Ground-breaking achievements transforming the scientific landscape often stem from... -
Classical Expected Utility Theory and Its Paradoxes
In this chapter, we briefly present the expected utility theory developed by von Neumann and Morgenstern and subjective expected utility theory... -
Gödel, Escher, Bell: Contextual Semantics of Logical Paradoxes
Quantum physics exhibits various non-classical and paradoxical features. Among them are non-locality and contextuality (e.g. Bell’s theorem or the... -
Logical Journeys: A Scientific Autobiography
A short scientific biography emphasising the main phases of Abramsky’s research: duality theory and domains in logical form, game semantics,... -
Modeling Organogenesis from Biological First Principles
Unlike inert objects, organisms and their cells have the ability to initiate activity by themselves and thus change their properties or states even... -
Classical Optical Modelling of Social Sciences in a Bohr–Kantian Framework
There is a recent surge of interest in proposing quantum-like models in cognition and social sciences at large. In the current paper we attempt to... -
Information-Theoretic Interpretation of Quantum Formalism
We present an information-theoretic interpretation of quantum formalism based on a Bayesian framework and devoid of any extra axiom or principle....
