Two-letter words and a fundamental homomorphism ruling geometric contextuality

Abstract

It has recently been recognized by the author that the quantum contextuality paradigm may be formulated in terms of the properties of some subgroups of the two-letter free group $G$ and their corresponding point-line incidence geometry $\mathcal{G}$. I introduce a fundamental homomorphism $f$ mapping the (infinitely many) words of G to the permutations ruling the symmetries of $\mathcal{G}$. The substructure of $f$ is revealing the essence of geometric contextuality in a straightforward way.
