Category theory and set theory as theories about complementary types of universals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Instead of the half-century old foundational feud between set theory and category theory, this paper argues that they are theories about two different complementary types of universals.

Who Needs Category Theory?

open access: yesEPiC Series in Computing, 2020
In mathematical applications, category theory remains a contentious issue, with enthusiastic fans and a skepticalmajority. In a muted form this split applies to the authors ofthis note. When we learned that the only mathematically soundfoundation of topological quantum computing in the literature isbased on category theory, the skeptical author ...

Experience Implementing a Performant Category-Theory Library in Coq [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We describe our experience implementing a broad category-theory library in Coq. Category theory and computational performance are not usually mentioned in the same breath, but we have needed substantial engineering effort to teach Coq to cope with large ...

Representing 3/2-Institutions as Stratified Institutions

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
On the one hand, the extension of ordinary institution theory, known as the theory of stratified institutions, is a general axiomatic approach to model theories where the satisfaction is parameterized by states of the models.

Decomposition theories for abelian categories [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1973
Both the classical approach to decomposition theories and Fisher’s technique of constructing decomposition theories from radical functions are extended to and exploited in the context of abelian categories. These two different approaches to decomposition theories for abelian categories intertwine in one theorem from which flows necessary and sufficient

AN ANALYSIS OF SOME ASPECTS OF COMPONENT-BASED PROGRAMMING FOR SELECTING APPROPRIATE CATEGORICAL STRUCTURES AS THEIR MODELS [PDF]

open access: yesActa Electrotechnica et Informatica, 2017
Formal methods and formal models are important tools in software engineering. Formal methods provide unambiguous meaning of programs written in some language or constructed from modules. Moreover, they provide the basic mathematical techniques necessary

On Self-Predicative Universals in Category Theory

open access: yes, 2015
1. This paper shows how the universals of category theory in mathematics provide a model (in the Platonic Heaven of mathematics) for the self-predicative strand of Plato's Theory of Forms as well as for the idea of a "concrete universal" in Hegel and ...

Exploring Heterogeneity with Category and Cluster Analyses for Mixed Data

open access: yesStats, 2023
Precision medicine aims to overcome the traditional one-model-fits-the-whole-population approach that is unable to detect heterogeneous disease patterns and make accurate personalized predictions.

Rigidification of algebras over multi-sorted theories

open access: yes, 2009
We define the notion of a multi-sorted algebraic theory, which is a generalization of an algebraic theory in which the objects are of different "sorts." We prove a rigidification result for simplicial algebras over these theories, showing that there is a

Survival Outcomes and Complications Among Canadian Children With Retinoblastoma: A Population‐Based Report From CYP‐C

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common pediatric ocular cancer, yet population‐based data on survival and risk factors remain limited. This study aimed to describe survival in a large national RB cohort and identify predictors of death and complications.
