That means you need a way to think about paths in terms of open sets rather than points. The idea: approximate a path by finer and finer finite sequences of opens that are causally before each other.

Coverages, or Grothendieck topologies, describe when a collection of regions covers another region in a space. But what if your space is a spacetime? The topological space may have a causal order saying which (spacetime) points 'come before' which other points, for example.

Start with any base circuit theory, in terms of tensors only; technically, as a prop. Build a new controlled circuit theory that has controlled versions of the base gates, subject to these equations.
