The ZX-calculus
I am Hector, also known as Hex, and I am a freelance mathematician usually working on quantum computing and data science. Most recently I have been working as the advisory Senior Data Scientist for Stonehaven , and as a lecturer for the University of Sussex.
My doctoral work included the creation, alteration, and generalisation of graphical calculi for quantum computing and the automated generation of theorems using these calculi. Since then my academic work has branched out, including synthesising music with quantum computers for QuTune , and exploration of trust in human-computer interactions. Despite chronic illness, especially when that illness affected my hands, I am a flautist, pianist, artist, and singer.
