We study errors induced by photonic fusion measurements and give flow structure to correct them.

We also introduce a new graphical language for optical protocols featuring delays, routers, switches and photonic machine guns

New paper out on arXiv! We give a "parameter-shift" rule for linear optical circuits. arxiv.org/abs/2401.07997v1

It features some very nice dilation theory with a 1950 result by Halmos

Montague's treatment of semantics is purely _functional_, while Peirce's existential graphs are _topological_, only connectivity matters.

With Mario Roman we had some ideas for doing this using profunctors.

Our calculus features the bosonic bialgebra first studied by Vicary (arxiv.org/abs/0706.0711), the non-unital Frobenius algebras of Abramsky and Heunen (arxiv.org/abs/1011.6123) and the fermionic W algebra of the ZXW calculus (arxiv.org/abs/2302.12135)

It comes with the release of DisCoPy 1.0 and a twin thesis by @AlexisToumi nitter.cf/AlexisToumi/status/160…
I am proud to announce that my PhD thesis "Category Theory for Quantum Natural Language Processing" is finally available for everyone to read! arxiv.org/abs/2212.06615
