Large-scale quantum diagrammatic reasoning tools, !-boxes vs. scalable notations

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

The application of diagrammatic reasoning techniques to large-scale quantum processes needs specific tools to describe families of diagrams of arbitrary size. For now, large-scale diagrammatic reasoning tools in ZH-calculus come in two flavours, !-boxes and scalable notations. This paper investigates the interactions between the two approaches by exhibiting correspondences through various examples from the literature, focusing on (hyper)graph states and diagrammatic transforms. In doing so, we set up a path toward a neat and tidy large-scale diagrammatic reasoning toolbox.
