SAT + NAUTY: Orderly Generation of Small Kochen-Specker Sets Containing the Smallest State-independent Contextuality Set
Zhengyu Li, Curtis Bright, Stefan Trandafir +2
We present a search for small Kochen-Specker (KS) sets in dimension 3, specifically targeting extensions of the 13-ray Yu-Oh set, which has been proven to be the minimal witness to…
Memory cost of quantum contextuality with Pauli observables
Stefan Trandafir, Colm Kelleher, Adán Cabello
Classically simulating the quantum contextual correlations produced by sequences of ideal measurements of compatible observables requires the measured system to have an internal me…
Reply to Pavičić's 'Comment on "Optimal conversion of Kochen-Specker sets into bipartite perfect quantum strategies"' (arXiv:2502.13787)
Stefan Trandafir, Adán Cabello
According to Paviči{ć}, Kochen and Specker's 117-observable set is not a ``Kochen-Specker set''. By the same reason, in arXiv:2502.13787, Paviči{ć} claims that 10 statements in our…
Two fundamental solutions to the rigid Kochen-Specker set problem and the solution to the minimal Kochen-Specker set problem under one assumption
Stefan Trandafir, Adán Cabello
Recent results show that Kochen-Specker (KS) sets of observables are fundamental to quantum information, computation, and foundations beyond previous expectations. Among KS sets, t…
Optimal conversion of Kochen-Specker sets into bipartite perfect quantum strategies
Stefan Trandafir, Adán Cabello
Bipartite perfect quantum strategies (BPQSs) allow two players isolated from each other to win every trial of a nonlocal game. BPQSs have crucial roles in recent developments in qu…
Perfect quantum strategies with small input cardinality
Stefan Trandafir, Junior R. Gonzales-Ureta, Adán Cabello
A perfect strategy is one that allows the mutually in-communicated players of a nonlocal game to win every trial of the game. Perfect strategies are basic tools for some fundamenta…
External columns and chambers of vector partition functions
Stefan Trandafir
The vector partition function associated to a matrix with integer entries is the function defined by $\mathbf{b} \to \#\{\mathb…
All linear symmetries of the tensor multiplicities
Emmanuel Briand, Mercedes Rosas, Stefan Trandafir
The tensor multiplicities are piecewise polynomial of degree in their labels. The pieces are the chambers of a complex of cones. We describe in detail this cha…
Estimating and computing Kronecker Coefficients: a vector partition function approach
Marni Mishna, Stefan Trandafir
We study the Kronecker coefficients via a formula that was described by Mishna, Rosas, and Sundaram, in which the coefficients are expressed as a signed sum of vector…
Irreducible magic sets for -qubit systems
Stefan Trandafir, Petr Lisoněk, Adán Cabello
Magic sets of observables are minimal structures that capture quantum state-independent advantage for systems of qubits and are, therefore, fundamental tools for investiga…
