Can we repudiate ontology altogether?

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Ontological nihilists repudiate ontology altogether, maintaining that ontological structure is an unnecessary addition to our theorizing. Recent defenses of the view involve a sophisticated combination of highly expressive but ontologically innocent languages combined with a metaphysics of features—non‐objectual, complete but modifiable states

Weak Homomorphisms of Coalgebras Beyond Set

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2014
We study the notion of weak homomorphisms between coalgebras of different types generalizing thereby that of homomorphisms for similarly typed coalgebras. This helps extend some results known so far in the theory of Universal coalgebra over Set.

On Cubic Functors

open access: yesCommunications in Algebra, 2003
We prove that the description of cubic functors is a wild problem in the sense of the representation theory. On the contrary, we describe several special classes of such functors (2-divisible, weakly alternative, vector spaces and torsion free ones). We also prove that cubic functors can be defined locally and obtain corollaries about their projective ...

The I in logic

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper argues for the significance of Kaplan's logic LD in two ways: first, by looking at how logic got along before we had LD, and second, by using it to bring out the similarity between David Hume's thesis that one cannot deduce claims about the future on the basis of premises only about the past, and the so‐called "essentiality" of the ...

A completion functor for Cauchy groups

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1981
A completion functor is constructed on the category of completely normal Cauchy groups and Cauchy-continuous homomorphisms. A competion functor is also obtained for a corresponding category of convergence groups.

Information Operators in Categorical Information Spaces

open access: yesInformation, 2010
The general theory of information (GTI) is a synthetic approach, which reveals the essence of information, organizing and encompassing all main directions in information theory.

Proper Functors and Fixed Points for Finite Behaviour [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2018
The rational fixed point of a set functor is well-known to capture the behaviour of finite coalgebras. In this paper we consider functors on algebraic categories. For them the rational fixed point may no longer be fully abstract, i.e.

Scissors congruence K$K$‐theory for equivariant manifolds

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce a scissors congruence K$K$‐theory spectrum that lifts the equivariant scissors congruence groups for compact G$G$‐manifolds with boundary, and we show that on π0$\pi _0$, this is the source of a spectrum‐level lift of the Burnside ring‐valued equivariant Euler characteristic of a compact G$G$‐manifold.

Positive fragments of coalgebraic logics [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2015
Positive modal logic was introduced in an influential 1995 paper of Dunn as the positive fragment of standard modal logic. His completeness result consists of an axiomatization that derives all modal formulas that are valid on all Kripke frames and are ...

An ordered framework for partial multivalued functors

open access: yes, 2015
The category Rel of sets and relations intimately ties the notions of function, partial multivalued function, and direct image under a function through the description of Rel as the Kleisli category of the covariant power set functor on Set. We present a
