    I have added pointer to:

    What I was looking for is the answer to the following question:

    In a compact closed category, “superoperators”

    ()(𝒦𝒦) \big(\mathscr{H} \multimap \mathscr{H}\big) \longrightarrow \big(\mathscr{K} \multimap \mathscr{K}\big)

    hence

    *𝒦𝒦 * \mathscr{H} \otimes \mathscr{H}^\ast \longrightarrow \mathscr{K} \otimes \mathscr{K}^\ast

    may equivalently be understood as

    𝒦𝒦 \mathscr{H} \otimes \mathscr{K} \longrightarrow \mathscr{H} \otimes \mathscr{K}

    and then be composed as such. Is there a standard name for this re-identification and/or the resulting notion of composition of superoperators?
