Given an algebraic theory which can be described by a (possibly symmetric) operad $P$, we propose a definition of the \emph{weakening} (or \emph{categorification}) of the theory, in which equations that hold strictly for $P$-algebras hold…

We develop a categorical compositional distributional semantics for Lambek Calculus with a Relevant Modality, which has a limited version of the contraction and permutation rules. The categorical part of the semantics is a monoidal biclosed…

We survey 25 years of research on decidability issues for Petri nets. We collect results on the decidability of important properties, equivalence notions, and temporal logics.

In present paper we develop categorical formalism of Verdier duality for diagrams of topoi. We use this approach to construct Grothendieck six operations formalism.

We show how to treat families of $\infty$-categories fibered in categorical patterns (e.g., $\infty$-operads and monoidal $\infty$-categories) in terms of fibrations by relativizing the Grothendieck construction. As applications, we…

A new formalism of Petri nets, based on the adoption of the "position-arc-transition" triad and "transition-arc-position" triad as structure-forming units is introduced. In accordance with the Fusion principle, an analytical representation…

We investigate the decidability and complexity status of model-checking problems on unlabelled reachability graphs of Petri nets by considering first-order and modal languages without labels on transitions or atomic propositions on…

This document gives an algebraic and two polygraphic translations of Petri nets, all three providing an easier way to describe reductions and to identify some of them. The first one sees places as generators of a commutative monoid and…

We present here definitions and constructions basic for the theory of monoidal and tensor categories. We provide references to the original sources, whenever possible. Group-theoretical categories are used as examples

Time-Basic Petri nets, is a powerful formalism for modeling real-time systems where time constraints are expressed through time functions of marking's time description associated with transition, representing possible firing times. We…

During the last decade, various approaches have been put forward to integrate business processes with different types of data. Each of such approaches reflects specific demands in the whole process-data integration spectrum. One particular…

We develop a notion of iterated monoidal category and show that this notion corresponds in a precise way to the notion of iterated loop space. Specifically the group completion of the nerve of such a category is an iterated loop space and…

We extend the free cornering of a symmetric monoidal category, a double categorical model of concurrent interaction, to support branching communication protocols and iterated communication protocols. We validate our constructions by showing…

This paper introduces the concept of distorted monoidal categories, a generalization of monoidal and braided monoidal categories that supports non-reversible and direction-sensitive tensor structures. Unlike the classical setting, where the…

Hierarchical Petri nets allow a more abstract view and reconfigurable Petri nets model dynamic structural adaptation. In this contribution we present the combination of reconfigurable Petri nets and hierarchical Petri nets yielding…

We give a natural-deduction-style type theory for symmetric monoidal categories whose judgmental structure directly represents morphisms with tensor products in their codomain as well as their domain. The syntax is inspired by Sweedler…

Applied category theory often studies symmetric monoidal categories (SMCs) whose morphisms represent open systems. These structures naturally accommodate complex wiring patterns, leveraging (co)monoidal structures for splitting and merging…

Structure-preserving bisimilarity is a truly concurrent behavioral equivalence for finite Petri nets, which relates markings (of the same size only) generating the same causal nets, hence also the same partial orders of events. The process…

In this paper, we present a generalization of Grothendieck pretopologies -- suited for semicartesian categories with equalizers $C$ -- leading to a closed monoidal category of sheaves, instead of closed cartesian category. This is proved…
