In this paper we carry the construction of equilogical spaces into an arbitrary category $\mathsf{X}$ topological over $\mathsf{Set}$, introducing the category $\mathsf{X}$-$\mathsf{Equ}$ of equilogical objects. Similar to what is done for…

We apply some tools developed in categorical logic to give an abstract description of constructions used to formalize constructive mathematics in foundations based on intensional type theory. The key concept we employ is that of a Lawvere…

We formalize the arithmetic topology, i.e. a relationship between knots and primes. Namely, using the notion of a cluster C*-algebra we construct a functor from the category of 3-dimensional manifolds M to a category of algebraic number…

We propose a new line of attack to create a finite quantum theory which includes general relativity and (perhaps) the standard model in its low energy limit. The theory would emerge from the categorical approach. A structure is observed on…

Knop constructed a tensor category associated to a finitely-powered regular category equipped with a degree function. In recent work with Harman, we constructed a tensor category associated to an oligomorphic group equipped with a measure.…

Building on the notion of normed category as suggested by Lawvere, we introduce notions of Cauchy convergence and cocompleteness which differ from proposals in previous works. Key to our approach is to treat them consequentially as…

The development of mathematics has been characterized by the increasing interconnectivity of seemingly separate disciplines. Such interplay has been facilitated by a massive development in formalism; category theory has provided a common…

A new construction to associate an internal category to an enriched one is presented. The key concept is that of extensive ambient category, and the construction follows the one that associates a category whose idempotents split to a given…

In this article, we interconnect two different aspects of higher category theory, in one hand the theory of infinity categories and on an other hand the theory of 2-categories.We construct an explicit functorial path objet in the model…

With quantaloids carefully constructed from multi-adjoint frames, it is shown that multi-adjoint concept lattices, multi-adjoint property-oriented concept lattices and multi-adjoint object-oriented concept lattices are derivable from Isbell…

We compare two possible ways of defining a category of 1-combs, the first intensionally as coend optics and the second extensionally as a quotient by the operational behaviour of 1-combs on lower-order maps. We show that there is a full and…

We extend Lurie's definition of enriched $\infty$-categories to notions of left enriched, right enriched and bienriched $\infty$-categories, which generalize the concepts of closed left tensored, right tensored and bitensored…

Representation theorems relate seemingly complex objects to concrete, more tractable ones. In this paper, we take advantage of the abstraction power of category theory and provide a general representation theorem for a wide class of…

We develop and extend the theory of Mackey functors as an application of enriched category theory. We define Mackey functors on a lextensive category $\E$ and investigate the properties of the category of Mackey functors on $\E$. We show…

This paper contains results from two areas -- formal theory of Kan extensions and concrete categories. The contribution to the former topic is based on the extension of the concept of Kan extension to the cones and we prove that limiting…

This paper investigates Smyth completeness of categories enriched over a quantale obtained by equipping the unit interval of real numbers with a continuous t-norm. A real-enriched category is Smyth-complete if each of its forward Cauchy…

Originally introduced in the context of the algebraic approach to term graph rewriting, the notion of gs-monoidal category has surfaced a few times under different monikers in the last decades. They can be thought of as symmetric monoidal…

Arboreal categories were introduced as an axiomatic framework for game comonads, which provide a comonadic view on many model-comparison games in logic. We demonstrate the inadequacy of the axiom stating that paths are connected. We then…
