    I noticed the Neumann’s ’Paranatural Category Theory’ article appearing recently along with your ’Internal parametricity, without an interval’. As ways of dealing with parametric polymorphism, any connection?

    The term “paranatural transformation” doesn’t appear to be used anywhere except the recent preprint that David mentions. Is there a reason this was chosen this as the name of the page, rather than “strong dinatural transformation”, which is the standard term?

    Re. #4, I don’t see that strong dinatural transformations are mentioned in that paper. My impression is that they were introduced in Paré–Román’s Dinatural numbers.

    Since I received no response to my question regarding why “paranatural transformation” should be chosen over “strong dinatural transformation”, which is the standard terminology, I have renamed the page.

    When DD has pullbacks, am I right that this can be regarded as an ordinary naturality condition for relations?

    For any f:c→c′f:c\to c' we can form a relation R F,f⊆F(c,c)×F(c′,c′)R_{F,f}\subseteq F(c,c)\times F(c',c') by pullback [so R F,f=F(c,c)× F(c,c′)F(c′,c′)R_{F,f}=F(c,c) \times_{F(c,c')} F(c',c'), as on the page].

    And then “strong dinaturality of α\alpha” seems to be the same thing as [edit] relation preservation.

    I would add it to the page but since I haven’t thought about strong dinaturality much before I thought to first check whether this is obviously wrong! [edit: I’ve added it]

    I have uploaded the slides for Vene 2006 to the nLab server,

    and made various minor adjustments to the page’s code, such as hyperlinking the author Varmo Vene, adding doi-s, etc.
