Contextuality is a feature of quantum correlations. It is crucial from a foundational perspective as a nonclassical phenomenon, and from an applied perspective as a resource for quantum advantage. It is commonly defined in terms of hidden…

In this paper, we have considered a uniform probability distribution supported by a stretched Sierpi\'nski triangle. For this probability measure, the optimal sets of $n$-means and the $n$th quantization errors are determined for all $n\geq…
