This is a condensed overview of the formal theory of monads in a 2-category. We also define two double categories of monads in a 2-category, extending Lack and Street's 2-categories of monads.
This is an overview of the present-day versions of monadology with some applications to vector lattices and linear inequalities.
Accounts of semantic phenomena often involve extending types of meanings and revising composition rules at the same time. The concept of monads allows many such accounts -- for intensionality, variable binding, quantification and focus --…
A two-part report, containing (unrelated) essays on subobject classifiers and on monads.
Notions of generalized multicategory have been defined in numerous contexts throughout the literature, and include such diverse examples as symmetric multicategories, globular operads, Lawvere theories, and topological spaces. In each case,…
We develop the formal theory of monads, as established by Street, in univalent foundations. This allows us to formally reason about various kinds of monads on the right level of abstraction. In particular, we define the bicategory of monads…
Leibniz considered the notion of the 'empty physical space' to be a meaningless abstraction, and he held firmly to the view that the only significant thing was the set of relationships between 'objects', whatever these 'objects' might be.…
Inspired by the classical theory of modules over a monoid, we give a first account of the natural notion of module over a monad. The associated notion of morphism of left modules ("Linear" natural transformations) captures an important…
In this article we show how to build main aspects of our paper on globular weak $(\infty,n)$-categories, but now for the cubical geometry. Thus we define a monad on the category $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{S}ets$ of cubical sets which algebras are…
We study the concept of idempotence for relative monads, which exhibits several subtleties not present for non-relative monads. In particular, there is a bifurcation of notions of idempotence in the relative setting, which are…
It is well-known that the category of Kleisli algebras for a monoidal monad carries a canonical monoidal structure. We define the notion of a commutative graded monad and present a strictly two-categorical proof that Kleisli algebras for…
The principle behind algebraic language theory for various kinds of structures, such as words or trees, is to use a compositional function from the structures into a finite set. To talk about compositionality, one needs some way of…
In this work, we study 'reduction monads', which are essentially the same as monads relative to the free functor from sets into multigraphs. Reduction monads account for two aspects of the lambda calculus: on the one hand, in the monadic…
Recently V.I.Arnold have formulated a geometrical concept of monads and apply it to the study of difference operators on the sets of $\{0,1\}$-valued sequences of length $n$. In the present note we show particular examples of these monads…
This article analyses some paragraphs of the Dissertatio de Arte Combinatoria (1666) where G.W. Leibniz considers the syntax of a language with a given number of primitive terms. We propose a new formulation which generalizes the…
An introduction to algebras for graphs, based on Courcelle's algebras of hyperedge replacement and vertex replacement. The paper uses monad notation.
The notion of Leibniz algebroid is introduced, and it is shown that each Nambu-Poisson manifold has associated a canonical Leibniz algebroid. This fact permits to define the modular class of a Nambu-Poisson manifold as an appropiate…
We conjecture that the class of frame matroids can be characterised by a sentence in the monadic second-order logic of matroids, and we prove that there is such a characterisation for the class of bicircular matroids. The proof does not…
In search of a meaningful 2-dimensional analog to mono- tonicity, we introduce two new definitions and give examples of and dis- cuss the relationship between these definitions and others that we found in the literature. Note: After we…
We define a notion of grading of a monoid T in a monoidal category C, relative to a class of morphisms M (which provide a notion of M-subobject). We show that, under reasonable conditions (including that M forms a factorization system),…
