Hardy’s Paradox and the Fano Associator: A Geometric Diagnosis of Quantum Contextuality

Abstract

The bipartite Hardy paradox is given a geometric diagnosis: the octonion associator ‖A‖=0 on Fano-line triples is the algebraic engine enabling P(Z+,Z+)>0. Quantum contextuality is identified with Fano-line membership.

  • N01 — Does the ASA Violate Hardy’s Axioms? — Explains exactly how the ASA deliberately violates Hardy’s Axiom 4 (Composite Systems) and modifies Axiom 5 (Continuity), and why this resolves rather than breaks Hardy’s paradox.
