Reverse differentiation is an essential operation for automatic differentiation. Cartesian reverse differential categories axiomatize reverse differentiation in a categorical framework, where one of the primary axioms is the reverse chain…

Let $X$ be a perfect, compact subset of the complex plane, and let $D^{(1)}(X)$ denote the (complex) algebra of continuously complex-differentiable functions on $X$. Then $D^{(1)}(X)$ is a normed algebra of functions but, in some cases,…

Following the pattern from linear logic, the coKleisli category of a differential category is a Cartesian differential category. What then is the coEilenberg-Moore category of a differential category? The answer is a tangent category! A key…
