Jul 26, 2007 During the 2007-2008 academic year there will be a program on Homotopy Theory and Higher Categories in Barcelona.
Feb 5, 2009 Notes from a talk by Ieke Moerdijk on dendroidal sets, with a few remarks on presheaves on the category of posets. 101 things to do with a 2-classifier Jan 17, 2008 What to do with a ...
May 24, 2017 Summarizes a new paper “A type theory for synthetic $\infty$-categories” by Emily Riehl and Mike Shulman. Jul 29, 2013 Let’s take a look at the E 8 lattice and the Lie algebra by the same ...
Back to modal HoTT. If what was considered last time were all, one would wonder what the fuss was about. Now, there’s much that needs to be said about type dependency, types as propositions, sets, ...
I don’t really think mathematics is boring. I hope you don’t either. But I can’t count the number of times I’ve launched into reading a math paper, dewy-eyed and eager to learn, only to have my ...
These are notes for the talk I’m giving at the Edinburgh Category Theory Seminar this Wednesday, based on work with Joe Moeller and Todd Trimble. (No, the talk will not be recorded.) They still have ...
In Part 1, I explained my hopes that classical statistical mechanics reduces to thermodynamics in the limit where Boltzmann’s constant k k approaches zero. In Part 2, I explained exactly what I mean ...
Things equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. And if equal things are added to equal things then the wholes are equal. And if equal things are subtracted from equal things then the ...
When is it appropriate to completely reinvent the wheel? To an outsider, that seems to happen a lot in category theory, and probability theory isn’t spared from this treatment. We’ve had a useful ...
Most recently, the Applied Category Theory Seminar took a step into linguistics by discussing the 2010 paper Mathematical Foundations for a Compositional Distributional Model of Meaning, by Bob Coecke ...
an appreciation of Bill Lawvere’s work in this direction. More is behind the above link. The idea behind the term is that a geometric space is roughly something consisting of points or pieces that are ...
