Abstract

We consider Kochen–Specker theorem for three-qubit system with eight-dimensional state space. Reexamining the proof given by Kernaghan and Peres, we make some clarifications on the orthogonality of rays and rank-two projectors found by them. Basing on their five groups of orthogonal octad, we then show a proof that requires only seventeen rays.
