We study sheaves in the context of a duality theory for lattice structure endowed with extra operations, and in the context of forcing in a topos. Using Sheaf duality theory of Comer for cylindric algebras, we give a representation theorem…

An introduction is given to the logic of sheaves of structures and to set theoretic forcing constructions based on this logic. Using these tools, it is presented an alternative proof of the independence of the Continuum Hypothesis; which…

Cellular sheaves equip graphs with a "geometrical" structure by assigning vector spaces and linear maps to nodes and edges. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) implicitly assume a graph with a trivial underlying sheaf. This choice is reflected in…

Essentials of sheaves are briefly presented, followed by related comments on presheaves, bundles, manifolds and singularities, aiming to point to their differences not only in their different formal mathematical structures, but also in the…

In this work, we introduce a novel approach based on algebraic topology to enhance graph convolution and attention modules by incorporating local topological properties of the data. To do so, we consider the framework of sheaf neural…

Multi-label classification is a type of classification task, it is used when there are two or more classes, and the data point we want to predict may belong to none of the classes or all of them at the same time. In the real world, many…

We initiate the study of sheaves on Cech closure spaces, providing a new, unified approach to sheaf theory on many of the major classes of spaces of interest to applications: topological spaces, finite simplicial complexes (seen as $T_0$…

Inspired by the works in linkage theory of modules, we define the concept of linkage of sheaves of modules as a generalization of linkage of modules. Thus, we expressed it in geometry algebraic language. We show that the linkedness of…

We generalize the notion of a small sheaf of sets over a topological space or manifold to define the notion of a small stack of groupoids over an \'etale topological or differentiable stack. We then provide a construction analogous to the…
