We present algorithms and a C code to decide quantum contextuality and evaluate the contextuality degree (a way to quantify contextuality) for a variety of point-line geometries located in binary symplectic polar spaces of small rank. With this code we were not only able to recover, in a more efficient way, all the results of a recent paper by de Boutray et al (J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 55 475301, 2022), but also arrived at a bunch of new noteworthy results. The paper first describes the algorithms and the C code. Then it illustrates its power on a number of subspaces of symplectic polar spaces whose rank ranges from two to seven. The most interesting new results include: (i) non-contextuality of configurations whose contexts are subspaces of dimension two and higher, (ii) non-existence of negative subspaces of dimension three and higher, (iii) considerably improved bounds for the contextuality degree of both elliptic and hyperbolic quadrics for ranks four, as well as for a particular subgeometry of the three-qubit space whose contexts are the lines of this space, (iv) proof for the non-contextuality of perpsets and, last but not least, (v) contextual nature of a distinguished subgeometry of a multi-qubit doily, called a two-spread, and computation of its contextuality degree.

Theor. 55 475301, 2022)的全部结果,还获得了一系列值得关注的创新成果。本文首先阐述算法与C代码实现,随后在秩数从二到七的多个辛极子空间上展示其效能。最具吸引力的新结果包括:(i) 上下文为二维及以上子空间的构型具有非上下文性;(ii) 三维及以上负子空间不存在性;(iii) 四秩椭圆与双曲二次曲面上下文程度显著改进的界,以及三量子比特空间中特定子几何(其上下文为该空间中的直线)的对应结果;(iv) 垂线集的非上下文性证明,以及最后但同等重要的;(v) 多量子比特多利构型中特定子几何(称为双展形)的上下文性质及其上下文程度的计算。
