What is Toy Quantum Categories (Extended Abstract) about?
We show that Rob Spekken's toy quantum theory arises as an instance of our categorical approach to quantum axiomatics, as a (proper) subcategory of the dagger compact category FRel of finite sets and relations with the cartesian product as tensor, where observables correspond to dagger Frobenius algebras. This in particular implies that the quantum-like properties of the toy model are in fact very general categorytheoretic properties. We also show the remarkable fact that we can already interpret complementary quantum observables on the two-element set in FRel.
