    • some minimum, for the moment just so as to record references

    • Has anyone thought about what geometric type theory would entail?

      I thought there might be something like this: we start with a dependent type theory. an infinitesimal extension object T(A) assigned to each A where A -> T(A) lifts against the smooth maps X -> Y, which play the role of fibrations. The infinitesimal interval plays the role of the path.

      An example would be sheaves over the big zariski site.

    • Fibrations arise from the adjunction between context extension and dependent sum. They can also be defined by a certain lifting property, which coincides with identity type.

      I was wondering if there is a similar setup for cofibrations in a type theoretic paradigm. They are Eckmann Hilton dual, so I tried thinking about how to dualize the adjunctions that give rise to a fibration, but I didn’t get anywhere. However, a certain extension property seems related (I can’t quite tell what it should be), the one you get from dualizing the path space object construction.

      Does anyone know if there is a certain “co-context extension” and “codependent sum” which would give rise to cofibrations? Or really any setup.

    • added to gerbe

      • definition of GG-gerbes;

      • classification theorem by AUT(G)AUT(G)-cohomology;

      • the notion of banded GG-gerbes.

    • Changed paragraph regarding analytic versus algebraic proofs. I don’t think it is possible to give a purely algebraic proof of Weierstrass’s original theorem, whose conclusion includes the statement that the power series are convergent in some neighborhood of 00. How could you, when this is an analytic statement? I think my edit might be what the original author intended.

    • added to principal 2-bundle in a new Properties-section the classification results by Baez-Stevenson, Stevenson-Roberts (for the topological case) and Nikolaus-Waldorf (for the smooth case).

    • Started literature section with several references at forcing.

    • old page, repairing broken link

    • finally added to crossed complex…. the definition! :-)

      Also added a paragraph on what the crossed complex associated to a strict globular \infty-groupoid is.

    • The page collects the various networks and communities of category theorists around the world. As far as I have seen, such page was missing from the nLab!

    • How about the terminology “sub-modal object” for a subobject of a modal object?

      [or maybe better: for which specifically the modality unit is a monomorphism]

      In line with “subquotient”.

      E.g. concrete objects would be the sub-\sharp-modal objects.

      (or alternatively: separated modal objects, in line with separated presheaves ??)

    • At closed subspace, I added some material on the 14 operations derivable from closures and complements. For no particularly great reason except that it’s a curiosity I’d never bothered to work through until now.
