The weak choice principle WISC may fail in the category of sets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The set-theoretic axiom WISC states that for every set there is a set of surjections to it cofinal in all such surjections. By constructing an unbounded topos over the category of sets and using an extension of the internal logic of a topos due to ...

A Topos Foundation for Theories of Physics: I. Formal Languages for Physics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper is the first in a series whose goal is to develop a fundamentally new way of constructing theories of physics. The motivation comes from a desire to address certain deep issues that arise when contemplating quantum theories of space and time ...

Towards a Paraconsistent Quantum Set Theory [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
In this paper, we will attempt to establish a connection between quantum set theory, as developed by Ozawa, Takeuti and Titani, and topos quantum theory, as developed by Isham, Butterfield and Döring, amongst others.

Sets in homotopy type theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Homotopy Type Theory may be seen as an internal language for the $\infty$-category of weak $\infty$-groupoids which in particular models the univalence axiom.

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A critical appraisal

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract In spite of intensive research efforts driving spectacular advances in terms of prevention and treatments, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading health burden, accounting for 32% of all deaths (World Health Organization. “Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs).” WHO, February 1, 2017, https://www.who.int/news‐room/fact‐sheets/detail ...

Is Quantum Field Theory Necessarily “Quantum”?

open access: yesQuantum Reports
The mathematical universe of the quantum topos, which is formulated on the basis of classical Boolean snapshots, delivers a neo-realist description of quantum mechanics that preserves realism.

Ennobling Love and Erotic Elevation: A Response to Six Readings of Ars Erotica

open access: yesEidos. A Journal for Philosophy of Culture, 2022
Preview: In various guises and cultures, the theme of elevating, ennobling love is a recurrent topos in the premodern erotic theory my book traces.

Some Possible Roles for Topos Theory in Quantum Theory and Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We discuss some ways in which topos theory (a branch of category theory) can be applied to interpretative problems in quantum theory and quantum gravity. In Sec.1, we introduce these problems. In Sec.2, we introduce topos theory, especially the idea of a

On the validity of the definition of a complement-classifier

open access: yesZagadnienia Filozoficzne w Nauce, 2020
It is well-established that topos theory is inherently connected with intuitionistic logic. In recent times several works appeared concerning so-called complement-toposes (co-toposes), which are allegedly connected to the dual to intuitionistic logic. In

The Topos of Virtuality

open access: yestripleC: Communication, Capitalism & Critique, 2009
Generalizing the conceptual approach to a theory of biosemiotics which is primarily based on insight from mathematical topology , we discuss here the relevance of the cognitive representation of the category of space in terms of the consequences implied ...
