— bases in tensor logic —<br />

<strong>The</strong> notion <strong>of</strong> a(n) (orthonormal) basis can be captured<br />

purely in the language <strong>of</strong> tensor logic:<br />

are the same thing as orthonormal bases; the basis vectors<br />

are the vectors copied by the comultiplication.<br />
