description

For N ≥ 2, an N-qubit doily is a doily living in the N-qubit symplectic polar space. These doilies are related to operator-based proofs of quantum contextuality. Following and extending the strategy of [SdBHG21] that focused exclusively on three-qubit doilies, we first bring forth several formulas giving the number of both linear and quadratic doilies for any N > 2. Then we present an effective algorithm for the generation of all N-qubit doilies. Using this algorithm for N = 4 and N = 5, we provide a classification of N-qubit doilies in terms of types of observables they feature and number of negative lines they are endowed with.
