String Diagram Rewrite Theory I: Rewriting with Frobenius Structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
String diagrams are a powerful and intuitive graphical syntax, originating in theoretical physics later formalised the context of symmetric monoidal categories. In recent years, they have found application modelling various computational structures, fields as diverse Computer Science, Physics, Control Theory, Linguistics, Biology. several these proposals, transformations systems modelled rewrite rules diagrams. These developments require mathematical foundation for string diagram rewriting: whereas theory terms is well-understood, two-dimensional nature poses quite few additional challenges. This work systematises expands series conference papers, laying down such foundation. As first step, we focus on case diagrammatic theories that feature Frobenius algebra. common structure provides more permissive notion composition than usual one available categories, has many applications areas concurrency, quantum theory, electrical circuits. Notably, this an exact correspondence between syntactic modulo combinatorial hypergraphs. Our introduces interpretation rewriting structures double-pushout hypergraph rewriting. We prove to be sound complete also show approach can generalised multiple structures. proof concept, how derive from results termination strategy Interacting Bialgebras, important study circuits signal flow graphs.

DEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY
The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...
متن کاملRewriting modulo a rewrite system
We introduce rewriting with two sets of rules, the rst interpreted equa-tionally and the second not. A semantic view considers equational rules as deening an equational theory and reduction rules as deening a rewrite relation modulo this theory. An operational view considers both sets of rules as similar. We introduce suucient properties for these two views to be equivalent (up to diierent noti...
متن کاملDiagram rewriting and operads
We introduce an explicit diagrammatic syntax for PROs and PROPs, which are used in the theory of operads. By means of diagram rewriting, we obtain presentations of PROs by generators and relations, and in some cases, we even get convergent rewrite systems. This diagrammatic syntax is useful for practical computations, but also for theoretical results. Moreover, rewriting is strongly related to ...
متن کاملRewrite strategies in the rewriting calculus
This paper presents an overview on the use of the rewriting calculus to express rewrite strategies. We motivate first the use of rewrite strategies by examples in the ELAN language. We then show how this has been modeled in the initial version of the rewriting calculus and how the matching power of this framework facilitates the representation of powerful strategies.
متن کاملSplit string field theory I
We describe projection operators in the matter sector of Witten’s cubic string field theory using modes on the right and left halves of the string. These projection operators represent a step towards an analytic solution of the equations of motion of the full string field theory, and can be used to construct Dp-brane solutions of the string field theory when the BRST operator Q is taken to be p...
