A compositional approach to quantum functions

Abstract: We introduce a notion of quantum function, and develop a compositional framework for finite quantum set theory based on a 2-category of quantum sets and quantum functions. We use this framework to formulate a 2-categorical theory of quantum graphs, which captures the quantum graphs and quantum graph homomorphisms recently discovered in the study of nonlocal games and zero-error communication, and relates them to quantum automorphism groups of graphs considered in the setting of compact quantum groups. We show … Show more

“…Nonetheless, such "genuinely quantum" quantum permutations arise naturally in a variety of contexts. For example, in quantum information theory, quantum permutation matrices arise naturally in the framework of non-local games and go under the name "projective permutation matrices" [4,36,34,35]. From the perspective of non-commutative geometry and quantum group theory, N × N quantum permutation matrices were discovered by Wang [46] to be precisely the structure that encode the quantum symmetries of a finite set of N points.…”

“…Quantum pseudo-telepathy is exhibited by graphs that are quantum but not classically isomorphic. This work builds on two recent articles, in which Lupini, Mančinska and Roberson [34] and the present authors [37] independently discovered a connection between these quantum isomorphisms and the quantum automorphism groups of graphs [6,9,10,11,14] studied in the framework of compact quantum groups [51]. This connection has already proven to be fruitful, introducing new quantum information-inspired techniques to the study of quantum automorphism groups [8,34].…”

“…Remark 3.5 In the special case where O(X) is equipped its unique tracial δ-form, then the definition of a quantum graph given here is equivalent to the one given in [19]. In addition, as explained in [19], a quantum graph X = (O(X), ψ X , A X ), where O(X) is a commutative C * -algebra, captures precisely the notion of a classical graph. Indeed, in this case the spectrum X of O(X) is a finite set and ψ X is the uniform probability measure on X.…”
