DESCRIPTION:Chris Heunen\, University of Edinburgh\nWe provide axioms that
  guarantee a category is equivalent to that of continuous linear functions
  between Hilbert spaces. The axioms are purely categorical and do not pres
 uppose any analytical structure such as probabilities\, convexity\, comple
 x numbers\, continuity\, or dimension. We'll discuss the axioms\, sketch t
 he proof of the theorem\, and survey open questions\, further directions\,
  and context. (Based on joint work with Andre Kornell arxiv:2109.07418.)
