We introduce and develop the notion of *displayed categories*. A displayed category over a category C is equivalent to "a category D and functor F : D --> C", but instead of having a single collection of "objects of D" with a map to the…

We define the zeta function of a finite category. And we propose a conjecture which states the relationship between the Euler characteristic of finite categories and the zeta function of finite categories. This conjecture is verified when…

We present a complete logic for reasoning with functional dependencies (FDs) with semantics defined over classes of commutative integral partially ordered monoids and complete residuated lattices. The dependencies allow us to express…

A new categorical framework is provided for dealing with multiple arguments in a programming language with effects, for example in a language with imperative features. Like related frameworks (Monads, Arrows, Freyd categories), we…

Strong Steiner $\omega$-categories are a class of $\omega$-categories that admit algebraic models in the form of chain complexes, whose formalism allows for several explicit computations. The conditions defining strong Steiner…

We define a homotopy relation between arrows of a category with weak equivalences, and give a condition under which the quotient by the homotopy relation yields the homotopy category. In the case of the fibrant-cofibrant objects of a model…

A $\mathcal{C}$-set is a functor from the category $\mathcal{C}$ to the category of finite sets and functions. The category of $\mathcal{C}$-sets, $\mathcal{C} - \operatorname*{set}$, is defined as the category whose objects are…

This paper formulates a notion of independence of subobjects of an object in a general (i.e. not necessarily concrete) category. Subobject independence is the categorial generalization of what is known as subsystem independence in the…

Ornaments aim at taming the multiplication of special-purpose datatype in dependently-typed theory. In its original form, the definition of ornaments is tied to a particular universe of datatypes. Being a type theoretic object,…

In Categorial Topology, given a category (as a "geometric object") we can consider its properties preserved under continuous action (a "deformation") of a comma-propagation operation. However, the Metacategory space, valid for all…

The category of strict omega-categories has an important full subcategory whose objects are the simple omega-categories freely generated by planar trees or by globular cardinals. We give a simple description of this subcategory in terms of…

We introduce the notion of a $(\Pi,\lambda)$-structure on a C-system and show that C-systems with $(\Pi,\lambda)$-structures are constructively equivalent to contextual categories with products of families of types. We then show how to…

In [KW14], the new concept of Feynman categories was introduced to simplify the discussion of operad--like objects. In this present paper, we demonstrate the usefulness of this approach, by introducing the concept of decorated Feynman…

An algebra is said to be \emph{$\tau$-tilting finite} provided it has only a finite number of $\tau$-rigid objects up to isomorphism. We associate a category to each such algebra. The objects are the wide subcategories of its category of…

We introduce a category Prob of probability spaces whose objects are all probability spaces and arrows are corresponding to measurable functions satisfying an absolutely continuous requirement. We can consider a Prob-arrow as an evolving…

We consider sets with infinite addition, called $\Sigma$-monoids, and contribute to their literature in three ways. First, our definition subsumes those from previous works and allows us to relate them in terms of adjuctions between their…

Given a 2-category $\mathcal{A}$, a $2$-functor $\mathcal{A} \overset {F} {\longrightarrow} \mathcal{C}at$ and a distinguished 1-subcategory $\Sigma \subset \mathcal{A}$ containing all the objects, a $\sigma$-cone for $F$ (with respect to…

Two novel descriptions of weak {\omega}-categories have been recently proposed, using type-theoretic ideas. The first one is the dependent type theory CaTT whose models are {\omega}-categories. The second is a recursive description of a…

Categorization systems are widely studied in psychology, sociology, and organization theory as information-structuring devices which are critical to decision-making processes. In the present paper, we introduce a sound and complete…
