Abstract. We define a notion of symmetric monoidal closed (smc) theory, consisting of a smc signature augmented with equations, and describe the classifying categories of such theo...
The concatenable processes of a Petri net N can be characterized ly as the arrows of a symmetric monoidal category P[N]. Yet, this is only a partial axiomatization, since P[N] is b...
We show that the category FinVectk of finite dimensional vector spaces and linear maps over any field k is (collectively) complete for the traced symmetric monoidal category freely...

Milner's bigraphs [1] are a general framework for reasoning about distributed and concurrent programming languages. Notably, it has been designed to encompass both the -calcul...
