Abstract
Contextuality is a feature differentiating between classical and quantum physics. It is anticipated that it may become an important resource for quantum computing and quantum information processing. Contextuality was asserted by the Kochen-Specker (KS) theorem. We study parity proofs of the KS theorem. Although many parity proofs exist, only finitely many of them have been discovered in any real or complex space of fixed dimension. We study a special family of chordal ring graphs. We construct orthonormal representations of their line graphs in four-dimensional real spaces. Our construction takes advantage of the high degree of symmetry present in the special class of chordal rings that we use. In this way we find, for the first time, an infinite family of KS sets in a fixed dimension.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
