    • I added to cylinder object a pointer to a reference that goes through the trouble of spelling out the precise proof that for XX a CW-complex, then the standard cyclinder X×IX \times I is again a cell complex (and the inclusion XXX×IX \sqcup X \to X\times I a relative cell complex).

      What would be a text that features a graphics which illustrates the simple idea of the proof, visualizing the induction step where we have the cylinder over X nX_n, then the cells of X n+1X_{n+1} glued in at top and bottom, then the further (n+1)(n+1)-cells glued into all the resulting hollow cylinders? (I’d like to grab such graphics to put it in the entry, too lazy to do it myself. )

    • moving material about the analytic LPO from analytic principle of omniscience to its own article at analytic LPO, since it is sufficiently different from the other analytic principles of omniscience to warrant its own page. I plan on making analytic principle of omniscience a disambiguation page which links to each of analytic LPO/WLPO/LLPO.

    • I edited Trimble n-category:

      • added table of contents

      • added hyperlinks

      • moved the query boxes that seemed to contain closed discussion to the bottom. I kept the query box where I ask for a section about category theory for Trimble n-categories, but maybe we want to remove that, too. Todd has more on this on his personal web.

    • Todd points out elsewhere that there is a problem with the following sentence in the section Smallness in the context of universes:

      CC is essentially UU-small if there is a bijection from its set of morphisms to an element of UU (the same for the set of objects follows); this condition is non-evil.

      (introduced in revision 11).

      It looks to me that first of all this is not the right condition – the right condition must mention equivalence of categories to a U-small category.

    • Don’t we need a geometric Spin^c structure to define the Spin^c Dirac operator? Otherwise, how is the connection on the complex spinor bundle defined?

      Does the nLab have an article about geometric Spin^c structures?

    • somebody signing as “Anonymous Coward” had created special relativity and typed in a confused paragraph (the smallest confusion being that the paragraph concerned not special but general relativity).

      I removed that paragraph and quickly wrote a brief “Idea”-section . But have no time to do this justice now.

    • I gave the stub-entry Hopf algebroid a paragraph in the Idea-section that points out that already in commutative geometry there are two different kinds of Hopf algebroids associated with a groupoid (just as there are two versions of Hopf algebras associated with a group):

      1. The commutative but non-co-commutative structure obtained by forming ordinary function algebras on objects and morphisms;

      2. The non-commutative but co-commutative structure obtained by forming the groupoid convolution algebra.

      For the moment I left the rest of the entry (which vaguely mentions commutative and non-commutative versions without putting them in relation) untouched, but I labelled the whole entry “under constructions”, since I think this issue needs to be discussed more for the entry not to be misleading.

      I may find time to get back to this later…

    • I guess it should read as “one defines the (Serre) quotient category A/TA/T as the one having the same objects as AA and ….” and not ” … same objects as TT… ” Similarily in the line following the line mentioned here.
