The ResultThere is a translation from
Non-Contextuality Inequalities intoGraph-Theoretical concepts
Personal Motivation
•To clearly understand/explain the novelties that Quantum Theory brings
•Try to “derive” Quantum Theory (or something like it) from other Principles Envy about Relativity Theory
The Surprise
•The E-Principle can be such foundational stone
E = Exclusivity

Small piece of History•Zero-error information theory includes

•For the pentagon, a lower bound is very simple
•Lovász defined his function to be a computable upper bound
•And obtained the exact value for the pentagon!

More Results
•Sets in correlation space also have graph-theoretical analogues: •NC = STAB•Q = THETA•E = QSTAB
More Results
•E-Principle gives the set of quantum correlations if this set is known for the complementary graph
•E-Principle forbids larger-than-quantum sets of correlationsBarbara Amaral, Marcelo Terra Cunha, and

Take home messages
•Graph approach encodes all contextuality inequality and some generalizations•Extensions to Nonlocality under
construction•E Principle is a good candidate for
explaining quantum correlations•No larger-than-quantum set!
