    • The name “Bishop-compact” is a coinage for “compact and totally bounded”, in constructive mathematics where it is used as a notion of compactness (not equivalent there to the usual notions).

    • I am splitting off from the geometry of physics cluster a chapter geometry of physics – homotopy types.

      For the moment I have there mostly section outline as well as some material copied over from my homological algebra lecture notes. My aim is now to put in a gentle discussion of Dold-Kan that leads an audience familiar with chain complexes from homological algebra to simplicial homotopy theory.

      I’ll be touching a bunch of related entries in the process.

    • It’s still not quite right, is it? (here) After

      Moreover, up to equivalence, every Grothendieck topos arises this way:

      isn’t there the clause of accessible embedding missing? I.e. instead of

      the equivalence classes of left exact reflective subcategories PSh(𝒞)\mathcal{E} \hookrightarrow PSh(\mathcal{C}) of the category of presheaves

      it should have

      the equivalence classes of left exact reflective and accessivley embedded subcategories PSh(𝒞)\mathcal{E} \hookrightarrow PSh(\mathcal{C}) of the category of presheaves

      Or else, by the prop that follows, it should say

      the equivalence classes of left exact reflective and locally presentable subcategories PSh(𝒞)\mathcal{E} \hookrightarrow PSh(\mathcal{C}) of the category of presheaves

      No?

      (This is just a question. I didn’t make an edit. Yet.)

    • I have started a (stubby) entry on multiagent systems, to link into certain of the modal logic entries.

    • I started putting down some thoughts at theory (physics). Not meant to be comprehensive or anything, but just a quick note. I am not claiming that the state the entry is in is the state it should remain in at all. But maybe it’s a start that helps to develop something.

    • Added to global element, which seems not to have had a Latest Changes-thread so far (hence this newly created one), a remark on a formalization of “name of a morphism” which I just stumbled upon and find a noteworthy thing.

      Perhaps this should go somewhere on the nLab, but to me global element seemed the most fitting place.

      I had always thought something like, “Well, if one really has to be careful and formal about the distinction between names or morphisms and morphisms per se, then the protocategories and protomorphisms in the sense of Freyd and Scedrov give one way to do so, and there is an introduction to this in the Elephant.” I was surprised to find someone connecting this to internal homs, hence made this note in global element.

      If there are some “situating comments” on this that can conveniently be made, I would be happy to read them here.

    • I moved various subsections (Monoidal structure, closed structure, Adjunctions) on properties of sSet from the entry simplicial set to sSet.

    • Added some more intuition for duploids now that I understand them and cbpv better. Duploids only axiomatize effectful morphisms, whereas an adjunction (CBPV) axiomatizes pure morphisms (as homomorphisms) and effectful morphisms (as heteromorphisms). Then thunkable and linear are the maximal way to recover pure morphisms from effectful morphisms. I.e., we should think of duploids as presenting a kind of “Morita equivalence” of adjunctions where we only care about the equivalence of the notion of heteromorphism.

    • This is a table-for-inclusion into other entries (hence not a stand-alone entry) for convenience of cross-linking the varios flavours of geometry that appear in geometry of physics.

      Will also be creating the relevant missing pages now, first as stubs, then they will grow.

    • Since the page geometry of physics – categories and toposes did not save anymore, due to rendering timeouts caused by its size, I have to decompose it, hereby, into sub-pages that are saved and then re-!included separately.

      With our new announcement system this means, for better or worse, that I will now have to “announce” these subsections separately. Please bear with me.

    • Although referred to in a couple of place, it seems we had no entry for spatial topos, so I’ve made a start.

    • Since I got questions from the audience (here) why I defined (pre-)sheaves on a site, instead of on a topological space “as in the textbooks”, I created this little entry with some basic pointers, which may complement the entry localic topos for the newbie. Could of course be expanded a lot…

    • In the article cocylinder one reads at the bottom:

      George Whitehead, Elements of homotopy theory
      (This uses the terminology mapping path space.)
      

      (This was added in revision 3 by Mike Shulman.)

      However, I was unable to find any occurrence of this terminology in Whitehead’s book.

      Indeed, looking at the table on page 141 below Theorem 6.22, we see that Whitehead refers to the dual construction as the mapping cylinder I_f, whereas the original construction is denoted by I^f, but there is no name attached to it.

      Furthermore, on page 43 below Theorem 7.31 one reads:

      The process of replacing the map f: X→Y by the homotopically equivalent fibration p : I^f→Y
      is, in some sense, analogous to that of replacing f by the inclusion map of X into the mapping cylinder of f;
      the latter is a cofibration, rather than a fibration.
      Pursuing this analogy further, we may consider the fibre T^f of p over a designated point of Y.
      We shall call T^f the mapping fibre of f (resisting firmly the temptation to call I^f and T^f the mapping cocylinder and cocone of f!).
      
    • I have expanded norm a bit.

    • Created algebraic theories in functional analysis. I've recently learnt about this connection and would like to learn more so I've created this page as a place to record my (and anyone else's) findings on this. I probably won't get round to doing much before the new year, though.

    • Anonymous “helpfully” changed the statement

      A matrix is a list of lists.

      to

      A matrix is a function M:[n]×[m]XM:[n]\times[m]\rightarrow X from the Cartesian product [n]×[m][n]\times[m] to a set XX.

      which I have reverted back.
