A Superposition-Based Calculus for Quantum Diagrammatic Reasoning and Beyond

Logic in Computer Science 2021-03-23 v1

Abstract

We introduce a class of rooted graphs which allows one to encode various kinds of classical or quantum circuits. We then follow a set-theoretic approach to define rewrite systems over the considered graphs and propose a new complete Superposition callculus which handles sets of formulas consisting of equations or disequations over these graphs.
