Optimal measurement structures for contextuality applications
The Kochen-Specker (KS) theorem is a cornerstone result in the foundations of quantum mechanics describing the fundamental difference between quantum...

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...

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... -
Contextuality, Fine-Tuning and Teleological Explanation
I assess various proposals for the source of the intuition that there is something problematic about contextuality, ultimately concluding that...

Against Identification of Contextuality with Violation of the Bell Inequalities: Lessons from Theory of Randomness
Nowadays, contextuality is the hottest topic of quantum foundations and, especially, foundations of quantum information theory. This notion is...
-
Contextuality in Distributed Systems
We present a lattice of distributed program specifications, whose ordering represents implementability/refinement. Specifications are modelled by... -
Quantum Violation of the Suppes-Zanotti Inequalities and “Contextuality”
The Suppes-Zanotti inequalities involving the joint expectations of just three binary quantum observables are (re-)derived by the hull computation of...

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... -
Facticity and Truth
Various theories of truth have been developed in philosophy, such as the correspondence theory, the coherence theory, the pragmatic theory of truth... -
Post-Truth Phenomenology
Post-truth refers to a condition in which truth is no longer respected, facts are no longer acknowledged, and people increasingly judge according to... -
Truth Relativism, Science Skepticism and the Political Consequences
In his book Post-Truth, Steve FullerFuller, Steve, a leading exponent of Science and Technology StudiesScience and Technology Studies, defends truth... -
Violating the KCBS Inequality with a Toy Mechanism
In recent years, much research has been devoted to exploring contextuality in systems that are not strictly quantum, like classical light, and many...

Bohr on EPR, the Quantum Postulate, Determinism, and Contextuality
The famous EPR article of 1935 challenged the completeness of quantum mechanics and spurred decades of theoretical and experimental research into the...

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... -
Truth: The Regulative Principle of Cognition
This chapter follows a historical perspective, continuing a line of philosophical thinking that led to modern linguistic philosophy, bringing... -
The Relativity of Truth
In this chapter, I discuss the relativity of truth and define the concept of viewpoint-relative truth. The relativity of truth is perhaps the... -
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....

Chapter 8 On Meta-knowledge and Truth
The paper deals with the problem of logical adequacy of language knowledge with cognition of reality. A logical explication of the concept of... -
The vitality of religious communities—A contribution model based on the sociological and theological discourse
The article elaborates a concept of the vitality of religious communities. Defined on the basis of previous research, it enables an identification of...
