An Introduction to String Diagrams for Computer Scientists
Published 15 May 2023 in cs.LO | (2305.08768v3)
Abstract: This document is an elementary introduction to string diagrams. It takes a computer science perspective: rather than using category theory as a starting point, we build on intuitions from formal language theory, treating string diagrams as a syntax with its semantics. After the basic theory, pointers are provided to contemporary applications of string diagrams in various fields of science.
