    Added:

    Latin name: Renatus Cartesius

    Hence the adjective “Cartesian” or “cartesian”, including cartesian space, cartesian monad, cartesian logic, cartesian functor, cartesian morphism, cartesian monoidal category, cartesian closed category, cartesian fibration, and many others.

    Good point. I added “Cartesian product” to the list.

    Since our entry analytic geometry says it does not want to talk about Descartes’ geometry, we should eventually have an entry Cartesian geometry, for completeness.
