contents Contextuality is a fundamental manifestation of nonclassicality, indicating that for certain quantum correlations, sets of jointly measurable variables cannot be pre-assigned values independently of the measurement context. In this work, we characterize nonclassical quantum correlation beyond contextuality, in terms of supernoncontextuality, namely the higher-than-quantum hidden-variable(HV) dimensionality required to reproduce the given noncontextual quantum correlations. Thus supernoncontextuality is the contextuality analogue of superlocality. Specifically, we study the quantum system of two-qubit states in a scenario composed of five contexts that demonstrate contextuality in a state-dependent fashion. For this purpose, we use the framework of boxes, whose behavior is described by a set of probabilities satisfying the no-disturbance conditions. We first demonstrate that while superlocality is necessary to observe a contextual box, superlocality is not sufficient for contextuality. On the other hand, a noncontextual superlocal box can be supernoncontextual, but superlocality is not a necessary condition. We then introduce a notion of nonclassicality beyond the standard contextuality, called semi-device-independent contextuality. We study semi-device-independent contextuality of two-qubit states in the above mentioned scenario and demonstrate how supernoncontextuality implies this nonclassicality. To this end, we propose a criterion and a measure of semi-device-independent contextuality.

Contextuality is a fundamental manifestation of nonclassicality, indicating that for certain quantum correlations, sets of jointly measurable variables cannot be pre-assigned values independently of the measurement context. In this work, we characterize nonclassical quantum correlation beyond contextuality, in terms of supernoncontextuality, namely the higher-than-quantum hidden-variable(HV) dimensionality required to reproduce the given noncontextual quantum correlations. Thus supernoncontextuality is the contextuality analogue of superlocality. Specifically, we study the quantum system of two-qubit states in a scenario composed of five contexts that demonstrate contextuality in a state-dependent fashion. For this purpose, we use the framework of boxes, whose behavior is described by a set of probabilities satisfying the no-disturbance conditions. We first demonstrate that while superlocality is necessary to observe a contextual box, superlocality is not sufficient for contextuality. On the other hand, a noncontextual superlocal box can be supernoncontextual, but superlocality is not a necessary condition.

We study semi-device-independent contextuality of two-qubit states in the above mentioned scenario and demonstrate how supernoncontextuality implies this nonclassicality.
