In this paper, we give several equivalent characterizations for a category with finite biproducts and the sum operation of arrows, and called categories satisfying these semiadditive $\mathbf{C}\mathbf{Mon}$-categories. This allow us to…
In this paper, we define indexed type theories which are related to indexed ($\infty$-)categories in the same way as (homotopy) type theories are related to ($\infty$-)categories. We define several standard constructions for such theories…
There are different categorical approaches to variations of transition systems and their bisimulations. One is coalgebra for a functor G, where a bisimulation is defined as a span of G-coalgebra homomorphism. Another one is in terms of path…
The recent trend in mathematics is towards a framework of abstract mathematical objects, rather than the more concrete approach of explicitly defining elements which objects were thought to consist of. A natural question to raise is whether…
We provide a categorical framework for mathematical objects for which there is both a sort of "independent" and "dependent" composition. Namely we model them as duoidal categories in which both monoidal structures share a unit and the first…
In this article, we show that $\alpha$-fractal functions defined on Sierpi\'nski gasket (denoted by $\triangle$) depend continuously on the parameters involved in the construction. In the latter part of this article, the continuous…
We show that the nerve of a strict omega-category can be described algebraically as a simplicial set with additional operations subject to certain identities. The resulting structures are called sets with complicial identities. We also…
In a Systems Engineering setting, various models are produced using a variety of methods and tools. Focusing on a type of models -- called descriptive models -- which we shall describe, we argue that, while the clarity and precision of…
We show how an effect algebra $\mathcal{X}$ can be regarded as a category, where the morphisms $x \rightarrow y$ are the elements $f$ such that $x \leq f \leq y$. This gives an embedding $\mathbf{EA} \rightarrow \mathbf{Cat}$. The interval…
In this paper we continue the study of the most important structures on C-systems, the structures that correspond, in the case of the syntactic C-systems, to the $(Pi,lambda,app,beta,eta)$-system of inference rules. One such structure was…
The category ${\rm Rel}(\mathcal{C})$ may be formed for any category $\mathcal{C}$ with finite limits using the same objects as $\mathcal{C}$ but whose morphisms from $X$ to $Y$ are binary relations in $\mathcal{C}$, that is, subobjects of…
When designing plans in engineering, it is often necessary to consider attributes associated to objects, e.g. the location of a robot. Our aim in this paper is to incorporate attributes into existing categorical formalisms for planning,…
We study fragments of dependence logic defined either by restricting the number k of universal quantifiers or the width of dependence atoms in formulas. We find the sublogics of existential second-order logic corresponding to these…
We show that a $\mathbb{P}$-object and simple configurations of $\mathbb{P}$-objects have a formal derived endomorphism algebra. Hence the triangulated category (classically) generated by such objects is independent of the ambient…
The category of (colored) props is an enhancement of the category of colored operads, and thus of the category of small categories. The titular category has nice formal properties: it is bicomplete and is a symmetric monoidal category, with…
The familiar construction of categories of fractions, due to Gabriel and Zisman, allows one to invert a class W of arrows in a category in a universal way. Similarly, bicategories of fractions allow one to invert a collection of arrows in a…
A dependent theory is a (first order complete theory) T which does not have the independence property. A main result here is: if we expand a model of T by the traces on it of sets definable in a bigger model then we preserve its being…
We prove a category-theoretic independence theorem for four fundamental notions: meaning, object, name, and existence. Working in a Lawvere-style categorical semantics and in particular in toposes, we show that these notions occupy distinct…
In this article we develop the concepts of $\sigma$-relation and $\sigma$-function, following the same steps as in Set Theory. First we define the concept of ordered pair and then we build the Cartesian Product of $\sigma$-sets so that we…
Definite descriptions are phrases of the form 'the $x$ such that $\varphi$', used to refer to single entities in a context. They are often more meaningful to users than individual names alone, in particular when modelling or querying data…
