Gerard Westendorp has a real knack for geometry, and here is his answer. Here is Thurston’s procedure. First draw the lattice of Eisenstein integers in the complex plane: ...

Projects range from applied category theory to logic, programming languages, and science, technology, and society. Specific topics for 2025 include, but are not limited to: Computational category ...

And the course feels like it’s mostly converging with any other set theory course, just with the special feature that everything remains resolutely isomorphism-invariant. This week we constructed N ...

Are you interested in using category-theoretic methods to tackle problems in topics like quantum computation, machine learning, numerical analysis or graph theory? Then you might like the Adjoint ...

Nov 7, 2024 00:45 Here’s a way to argue that Gerard’s solution to my puzzle is correct. Thurston showed that any star of the ...

I haven’t been carefully following quantum field theory these days, but some folks on the Category Theory Community Server asked me what I thought about recent work using the ‘amplitudohedron’ and ...
