However\, it is not oriously difficult to\ncharacterize what is needed for a quantum computer to be useful. In\nthis talk I will show that two characteristic quantum ph enomena\,\nnamely\, negative probabilities and contextuality\, are equival ent with\nrespect to the stabilizer formalism for qudits (d odd prime).\n DTSTAMP:20250518T103357Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
