Earlier this month the Mathematics Institute at Uppsala University hosted a conference called Categorification in Algebra and Topology, clearly a theme close to our collective heart. As yet there are ...

Aug 2, 2008 In this new version of our paper, we systematically explain how n-dimensional field theories give n-plectic manifolds. We also say how a B field affects the 2-plectic structure for a ...

Previously: Part 5. Next: Part 7. A category theorist might imagine that a chapter with this title would be about constructing colimits, and they’d be half right.

This is the homepage for the UT Geometry and Quantum Field Theory Seminar. At the organizational meeting we will flesh out the details of our plans for the semester. Below are some suggestions to get ...

every family of well ordered sets has a least member — informally, “the well ordered sets are well ordered”; ...

Previously: Part 6. Next: Part 8. As the course continues, the axioms fade into the background. They rarely get mentioned these days. Much more often, the facts we’re leaning on are theorems that were ...
