| contents | We consider the kinematic axioms of quantum mechanics projectively. Instead of normalized (pure) states up to global phase, states become one-dimensional subspaces of vector spaces. This process of projectivization is functorial and lax monoidal. For qubits it identifies the Bloch sphere with the Riemann sphere. We interpret a fragment of the ZXW-calculus projectively and thereby provide an alternate derivation of the arithmetic GHZ/W-calculus of Coecke et al. We find meromorphic functions that characterize the coherent behaviour of circuits for logical state preparation of quantum codes and magic state distillation. |
