Abstract
The notion of a Moore-Penrose inverse (M-P inverse) was introduced by Moore in 1920 and rediscovered by Penrose in 1955. The M-P inverse of a complex matrix is a special type of inverse which is unique, always exists, and can be computed using singular value decomposition. In a series of papers in the 1980s, Puystjens and Robinson studied M-P inverses more abstractly in the context of dagger categories. Despite the fact that dagger categories are now a fundamental notion in categorical quantum mechanics, the notion of a M-P inverse has not (to our knowledge) been revisited since their work. One purpose of this paper is, thus, to renew the study of M-P inverses in dagger categories. Here we introduce the notion of a Moore-Penrose dagger category and provide many examples including complex matrices, finite Hilbert spaces, dagger groupoids, and inverse categories. We also introduce generalized versions of singular value decomposition, compact singular value decomposition, and polar decomposition for maps in a dagger category, and show how, having such a decomposition is equivalent to having M-P inverses. This allows us to provide precise characterizations of which maps have M-P inverses in a dagger idempotent complete category, a dagger kernel category with dagger biproducts (and negatives), and a dagger category with unique square roots.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
