Categorical universal algebra can be developed either using Lawvere theories (single-sorted finite product theories) or using monads, and the category of Lawvere theories is equivalent to the category of finitary monads on Set. We show how…
Diagrammatic logics were introduced in 2002, with emphasis on the notions of specifications and models. In this paper we improve the description of the inference process, which is seen as a Yoneda functor on a bicategory of fractions. A…
In this article we describe properties of the 2-functor from the 2-category of comonads to the 2-category of functors that sends a comonad to its forgetful functor. This allows us to describe contexts where algebras over a monad are…
For an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$, the defect sequence $$0\longrightarrow F_0\longrightarrow F\overset{\varphi}{\longrightarrow} \big(w(F),\hspace{0.05cm}\underline{\ \ }\hspace{0.1cm} \big)\longrightarrow F_1\longrightarrow 0$$ of a…
In this paper a set of canonical collective variables is defined for a classical Klein-Gordon field and the problem of the definition of a set of canonical relative variables is discussed. This last point is approached by means of a…
This paper has three objectives. First to recall the link between the classical Legendre-Fenschel transformation and a useful isomorphism between 1-jets of functions on a vector bundle and on its dual. As a particular consequence we obtain…
A consistent, local coordinate formulation of covariant Hamiltonian field theory is presented. While the covariant canonical field equations are equivalent to the Euler-Lagrange field equations, the covariant canonical transformation theory…
The Jacobian conjecture involves the map $y= x - V(x)$ where $y, x$ are n-dimensional vectors, $V(x)$ is a symmetric polynomial of degree $d$ for which the Jacobian hypothesis holds: $ e^{Tr \ln(1- V'(x))} =1,\ \forall x$. The conjecture…
This paper investigates type isomorphism in a lambda-calculus with intersection and union types. It is known that in lambda-calculus, the isomorphism between two types is realised by a pair of terms inverse one each other. Notably,…
Various characterizations are offered of injectivity of the canonical fundamental group homomorphism for a certain class of inverse limit spaces. One application characterizes the existence of a kind of generalized universal cover.
Functorial semi-norms are semi-normed refinements of functors such as singular (co)homology. We investigate how different types of representability affect the (non-)triviality of finite functorial semi-norms on certain functors or classes.…
When given a class of functions and a finite collection of sets, one might be interested whether the class in question contains any function whose domain is a subset of the union of the sets of the given collection and whose restrictions to…
We study the 2-category of elements from an abstract point of view. We generalize to dimension 2 the well-known result that the category of elements can be captured by a comma object that also exhibits a pointwise left Kan extension. For…
Let $A$ be a finite or countable alphabet and let $\theta$ be literal (anti)morphism onto $A^*$ (by definition, such a correspondence is determinated by a permutation of the alphabet). This paper deals with sets which are invariant under…
Let $Y:\R^n\to\R^n$ be a polynomial local diffeomorphism and let $S_Y$ denote the set of not proper points of $Y$. The Jelonek's real Jacobian Conjecture states that if $\codim(S_Y)\geq2$, then $Y$ is bijective. We prove a weak version of…
Simple optics are defined using actions of monoidal categories. Compound optics arise, for instance, as natural transformations between polynomial functors. Since a monoidal category is a special case of a bicategory, we formulate complex…
We propose a framework for producing interesting subcategories of the category ${}_A\mathsf{Mod}$ of left $A$-modules, where $A$ is an associative algebra over a field $k$. The construction is based on the composition, $Y$, of the Yoneda…
This text is dedicated to the development of the theory of $(\infty,\omega)$-categories. We present generalizations of standard results from category theory, such as the lax Grothendieck construction, the Yoneda lemma, lax (co)limits and…
Certain quantization problems are equivalent to the construction of morphisms from "quantum" to "classical" props. Once such a morphism is constructed, Hensel's lemma shows that it is in fact an isomorphism. This gives a new, simple proof…
We use the terms $\infty$-categories and $\infty$-functors to mean the objects and morphisms in an $\infty$-cosmos: a simplicially enriched category satisfying a few axioms, reminiscent of an enriched category of fibrant objects.…
