We define a fragment of monadic infinitary second-order logic corresponding to an abstract separation property. We use this to define the concept of a separation subclass. We use model theoretic techniques and games to show that separation…

We prove the Categorified Wrapping Number Conjecture for large classes of annular links, including alternating annular links and tangle closures exhibiting plumbed link phenomena. We do so by characterizing when a resolution is sufficient…

We investigate some basic questions about the interaction of regular and rational relations on words. The primary motivation comes from the study of logics for querying graph topology, which have recently found numerous applications. Such…

We consider existential rules (aka Datalog+) as a formalism for specifying ontologies. In recent years, many classes of existential rules have been exhibited for which conjunctive query (CQ) entailment is decidable. However, most of these…

We examine the first order structure of pregeometries of structures built via Hrushovski constructions. In particular, we show that the class of flat pregeometries is an amalgamation class such that the pregeometry of the unbounded arity…

A theorem of Eilenberg establishes that there exists a bijection between the set of all varieties of regular languages and the set of all varieties of finite monoids. In this article after defining, for a fixed set of sorts $S$ and a fixed…

We consider categorical logic on the category of Hilbert spaces. More generally, in fact, any pre-Hilbert category suffices. We characterise closed subobjects, and prove that they form orthomodular lattices. This shows that quantum logic is…

In the first part of this paper, we propose a uniform interpretation of characteristic classes as obstructions to the reduction of the structure group and to the existence of an equivariant extension of a certain homomorphism defined a…

We denote by Conc(A) the semilattice of all finitely generated congruences of an (universal) algebra A, and we define Conc(V) as the class of all isomorphic copies of all Conc(A), for A in V, for any variety V of algebras. Let V and W be…

We extend Lawvere-Pitts prop-categories (aka. hyperdoctrines) to develop a general framework for providing "algebraic" semantics for nonclassical first-order logics. This framework includes a natural notion of substitution, which allows…

In the last years there has been a growing interest in the study of learning problems associated with algebraic structures. The framework we use models the scenario in which a learner is given larger and larger fragments of a structure from…

We develop a unified categorical theory of substructural abstract syntax with variable binding and single-variable (capture-avoiding) substitution. This is done for the gamut of context structural rules given by exchange (linear theory)…

A standard combinatorial construction, due to Kontsevich, associates to any A-infinity algebra with an invariant inner product, an inhomogeneous class in the cohomology of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces with marked points. We…

In order to understand the structure of the `typical' element of an automorphism group, one has to study how large the conjugacy classes of the group are. When typical is meant in the sense of Baire category, a complete description of the…

A new class of infinite dimensional simple Lie algebras over a field with characteristic 0 are constructed. These are examples of non-graded Lie algebras. The isomorphism classes of these Lie algebras are determined. The structure space of…

In present work, we find a class of Lie algebras, which are defined from the symmetrizable generalized intersection matrices. However, such algebras are different from generalized intersection matrix algebras and intersection matrix…

We provide a self-contained introduction to the classical theory of universal-homogeneous models (also known as generic structures, rich models, or Fra\"iss\'e limits). In the literature, most treatments restrict consideration to embeddings…

In this paper we introduce the concept of L-algebras, which can be seen as a generalization of the structure determined by the Eilenberg-Mac lane transformation and Alexander-Whitney diagonal in chain complexes. In this sense, our main…

We provide the rigorous foundations for a categorical approach to the classification of C*-dynamics up to cocycle conjugacy. Given a locally compact group $G$, we consider a category of (twisted) $G$-C*-algebras, where morphisms between two…

We propose a concrete surface representation of abstract categorial grammars in the category of word cobordisms or cowordisms for short, which are certain bipartite graphs decorated with words in a given alphabet, generalizing linear logic…
