An obstruction based approach to the Kochen-Specker theorem

J. Hamilton

In [1] it was shown that the Kochen Specker theorem can be written in terms of the non-existence of global elements of a certain varying set over the category W of boolean subalgebras of projection operators on some Hilbert space H. In this paper, we show how obstructions to the construction of such global elements arise, and how this provides a new way of looking at proofs of the theorem.
