An Invitation to Higher Arity Science [PDF]
Analytical thinking is dominated by binary ideas. From pairwise interactions to algebraic operations, to compositions of processes, to network models, binary structures are deeply ingrained in the fabric of most current scientific paradigms. In this paper, we introduce arity as the generic conceptualization of the order of an interaction between a ...

Practical Variable-Arity Polymorphism [PDF]
Just as some functions have uniform behavior over distinct types, other functions have uniform behavior over distinct arities. These variable-arity functions are widely used in scripting languages such as Scheme and Python. Statically typed languages also accommodate modest forms of variable-arity functions, but even ML and Haskell, languages with ...

Arity-generic datatype-generic programming [PDF]
Some programs are doubly-generic. For example, map is datatype-generic in that many different data structures support a mapping operation. A generic programming language like Generic Haskell can use a single definition to generate map for each type. However, map is also arity-generic because it belongs to a family of related operations that differ in ...

The minimal arity of near unanimity polymorphisms [PDF]
Abstract Dmitriy Zhuk has proved that there exist relational structures which admit near unanimity polymorphisms, but the minimum arity of such a polymorphism is large and almost matches the known upper bounds. We present a simplified and explicit construction of such structures and a detailed, self–contained proof.

The Arity Hierarchy in the Polyadic μ-Calculus [PDF]
The polyadic mu-calculus is a modal fixpoint logic whose formulas define relations of nodes rather than just sets in labelled transition systems. It can express exactly the polynomial-time computable and bisimulation-invariant queries on finite graphs ...

Text-based knowledge extraction methods for populating knowledge bases have focused on binary facts: relationships between two entities. However, in advanced domains such as health, it is often crucial to consider ternary and higher-arity relations. An example is to capture which drug is used for which disease at which dosage (e.g.

High-arity PAC learning via exchangeability
151 pages, 1 figure. (Minor changes: this version changes the definition of flexibility (3.17 and 4.14) to a weaker one to ensure that the 0/1-loss is flexible, fixing an imprecision in Lemma 3.19; see Footnote 34 in the manuscript for details.)

We specialise a recently introduced notion of generalised dinaturality for functors $T : (\mathcal{C}^\text{op})^p \times \mathcal{C}^q \to \mathcal{D}$ to the case where the domain (resp., codomain) is constant, obtaining notions of ends (resp., coends) of higher arity, dubbed herein $(p,q)$-ends (resp., $(p,q)$-coends). While higher arity co/ends are
