Undecidability conjecture for ALLOWS_QUANTUM
Undecidability conjecture for ALLOWS_QUANTUM
Let be a contextuality scenario and let denote its universal unital -algebra. The decision problem asks whether a given contextuality scenario admits a quantum realization. Undecidability conjecture. The decision problem is undecidable. The authors do not know any terminating algorithm that solves this problem; a positive solution to the associated residual finite-dimensionality problem would instead yield an algorithm, while the problem is related to Connes' embedding problem and other difficult questions in operator algebras.
