In the setting of modern mathematical logic and model theory, classification theory has been one of the landmark achievements of the field. Likewise, the classification of UHF-algebras and AF-algebras were substantial contributions to the…
This is the first draft of a book about higher categories approached by iterating Segal's method, as in Tamsamani's definition of $n$-nerve and Pelissier's thesis. If $M$ is a tractable left proper cartesian model category, we construct a…
This paper introduces the seed order, a partial order of the class of uniform countably complete ultrafilters that generalizes the Mitchell order on normal measures. Like that order, the seed order is consistently a linear ordering even…
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…
Suppose L = {<, . . .} is any countable first order language in which < is interpreted as a linear order. Let T be any complete first order theory in the language L such that T has a kappa-like model where kappa is an inaccessible cardinal.…
The notion of a natural model of type theory is defined in terms of that of a representable natural transfomation of presheaves. It is shown that such models agree exactly with the concept of a category with families in the sense of Dybjer,…
A subset of a model of ${\sf PA}$ is called neutral if it does not change the $\mathrm{dcl}$ relation. A model with undefinable neutral classes is called neutrally expandable. We study the existence and non-existence of neutral sets in…
We rewrite simplicially the standard definitions of a complete first order theory, a model of it, and various characterisations of stability of a complete first order theory. In our reformulations the simplicial language replaces the…
Category theory plays a special character in mathematics - it unifies distinct branches under the same formalism. Despite this integrative power in math, it also seems to provide the proper foundations to the experimental physicist. In this…
Akama et al. [1] introduced a hierarchical classification of first-order formulas for a hierarchical prenex normal form theorem in semi-classical arithmetic. In this paper, we give a justification for the hierarchical classification in a…
We revisit the results on admissible transformations between normal linear systems of second-order ordinary differential equations with an arbitrary number of dependent variables under several appropriate gauges of the arbitrary elements…
We bring an abstract model theory perspective to interpolation. We ask, what is the role of interpolation in the study of extensions of first order logic, such as infinitary logics, generalized quantifiers and higher order logics? The…
Many economic theory models incorporate finiteness assumptions that, while introduced for simplicity, play a real role in the analysis. We provide a principled framework for scaling results from such models by removing these finiteness…
We introduce a new definition of a model for a formal mathematical system. The definition is based upon the substitution in the formal systems, which allows a purely algebraic approach to model theory. This is very suitable for applications…
This is the first in a series of papers in which we study representations of the Brauer category and its allies. We define a general notion of triangular category that abstracts key properties of the triangular decomposition of a semisimple…
We consider a declarative framework for machine learning where concepts and hypotheses are defined by formulas of a logic over some background structure. We show that within this framework, concepts defined by first-order formulas over a…
Vision models are interpretable when they classify objects on the basis of features that a person can directly understand. Recently, methods relying on visual feature prototypes have been developed for this purpose. However, in contrast to…
This paper is devoted to the theory of prime numbers. In this paper we first introduce the notion of a matrix of prime numbers. Then, in order to investigate the density of prime numbers in separate rows of the matrix under consideration,…
We develop a Bayesian approach for selecting the model which is the most supported by the data within a class of marginal models for categorical variables formulated through equality and/or inequality constraints on generalised logits…
There are many books designed to introduce category theory to either a mathematical audience or a computer science audience. In this book, our audience is the broader scientific community. We attempt to show that category theory can be…
