We study the total quantum dimension in the thermodynamic limit of topologically ordered systems. In particular, using the anyons (or superselection sectors) of such models, we define a secret sharing scheme, storing information invisible…

This article is an introduction to the basic generalized category theory used in recent work on an extension of the theory of categories and categorical logic, including parts of topos theory. We discuss functors, equivalences, natural…

This chapter explores the notion of "dimension" of a set. Various power laws by which an Euclidean space can be characterized are used to define dimensions, which then explore different aspects of the set. Also discussed are the…

We characterize when a subfactor $N\subseteq M$ is oracle computable relative to a presentation of the ambient factor $M$ in terms of computability of the Jones basic construction, in terms of computable Pismner-Popa bases, and in terms of…

We develop the theory of the additive dimension ${\rm dim} (A)$, i.e. the size of a maximal dissociated subset of a set $A$. It was shown that the additive dimension is closely connected with the growth of higher sumsets $nA$ of our set…

In this short note we present several infinite dimensional theorems which generalize corresponding facts from the finite dimensional differential inclusions theory.

An inclusion of II$_1$ factors $N \subset M$ with finite Jones index gives rise to a powerful set of invariants that can be approached successfully in a number of different ways. We describe Jones' pictorial description of the standard…

Convergence theory is an extension of general topology. In contrast with topology, it is closed under some important operations, like exponentiation. With all its advantages, convergence theory remains rather unknown. It is an aim of this…

This study addresses the often underestimated importance of physical dimensions and units in the formal reconstruction of physical theories, focusing on structuralist approaches that use the concept of ``species of structure" as a…

The question "What is category theory" is approached by focusing on universal mapping properties and adjoint functors. Category theory organizes mathematics using morphisms that transmit structure and determination. Structures of…

The aim of the paper is twofold. Firstly, we give an axiomatic presentation of Donaldson-Thomas theory for categories of homological dimension at most one with potential. In particular, we provide rigorous proofs of all standard results…

We define two notions of discrete dimension based on the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions in the continuous setting. After proving some basic results illustrating these definitions, we apply this machinery to the study of connections…

This article is an introductory work to a larger research project devoted to pure, applied and philosophical aspects of dimension theory. It concerns a novel approach toward an alternate dimension theory foundation: the point-dimension…

Category theory has foundational importance because it provides conceptual lenses to characterize what is important in mathematics. Originally the main lenses were universal mapping properties and natural transformations. In recent decades,…

We review some aspects of theories with compact extra dimensions. We consider the motivation and the theoretical basis of Large, Universal and Warped Extra Dimensions. We focus on those aspects that are potentially relevant in the…
