Abstracts:
We unify the resource-theoretic and the cohomological perspective
on quantum contextuality.
At the center of this unification stands the notion of the contextual
fraction. For both symmetry and parity based contextuality proofs,
we establish cohomological invariants which
are witnesses of state-dependent contextuality.
We provide two results invoking the contextual fraction, namely (i)
refinements of logical contextuality inequalities,
and (ii) upper bounds on the classical cost of Boolean function
evaluation, given the contextual fraction of the corresponding
measurement-based quantum computation.
