Enriching Diagrams with Algebraic Operations

Alejandro Villoria, Henning Basold, Alfons Laarman

Abstract In this paper, we extend diagrammatic reasoning in monoidal categories with algebraic operations and equations. We achieve this by considering monoidal categories that are enriched in the category of Eilenberg-Moore algebras for a monad. Under the condition that this monad is monoidal and there is an adjunction between the free algebra functor and the underlying category functor, we construct an adjunction between symmetric monoidal categories and symmetric monoidal categories enriched over algebras for the monad. This allows us to devise an extension, and its semantics, of the ZX-calculus with probabilistic choices by freely enriching over convex algebras, which are the algebras of the finite distribution monad. We show how this construction can be used for diagrammatic reasoning of noise in quantum systems.

On $\mathscr{T}$-based orthomodular dynamic algebras

Jan Paseka, Juanda Kelana Putra, Richard Smolka

This paper establishes a categorical equivalence between the category $\mathbb{COL}$ of complete orthomodular lattices and the category $\mathscr{T}\mathbb{ODA}$ of $\mathscr{T}$-based orthomodular dynamic algebras. Complete orthomodular lattices serve as the static algebraic foundation for quantum logic, modeling the testable properties of quantum systems. In contrast, $\mathcal{T}$-based orthomodular dynamic algebras, which are specialized unital involutive quantales, formalize the composition and quantum-logical properties of quantum actions. This result refines prior connections between orthomodular lattices and dynamic algebras, provides a constructive bridge between static and dynamic quantum logic perspectives, and extends naturally to Hilbert lattices and broader quantum-theoretic structures.

On T\mathscr{T}T-based orthomodular dynamic algebras
This paper establishes a categorical equivalence between the category COL\mathbb{COL}COL of complete orthomodular lattices and the category TODA\mathscr{T}\mathbb{ODA}TODA of T\mathscr{T}T-based orthomodular dynamic algebras. Complete orthomodular lattices serve as the static algebraic foundation for quantum logic, modeling the testable properties of quantum systems. In contrast, T\mathcal{T}T-based orthomodular dynamic algebras, which are specialized unital involutive quantales, formalize the composition and quantum-logical properties of quantum actions. This result refines prior connections between orthomodular lattices and dynamic algebras, provides a constructive bridge between static and dynamic quantum logic perspectives, and extends naturally to Hilbert lattices and broader quantum-theoretic structures.
