A note on the relation between the Contextual Fraction and CNT2

Abstract

Contextuality (or lack thereof) is a property of systems of random variables. Among the measures of the degree of contextuality, two have played important roles. One of them, Contextual Fraction ($\text{CNTF}$) was proposed within the framework of the sheaf-theoretic approach to contextuality, and extended to arbitrary systems in the Contextuality-by-Default approach. The other, denoted ${\text{CNT}}_2$, was proposed as one of the measures within the Contextuality-by-Default approach. In this note, I prove that $\text{CNTF}=2{\text{CNT}}_2$ within a class of systems, called cyclic, that have played a prominent role in contextuality research.
