Scottish Category Theory Seminar
Category theory is a relatively new branch of mathematics which seeks
to understand abstract mathematical structure. At its core, category
theory contains a synthesis of algebraic, logical and geometric
intuitions. This allows for both diverse applications and innovative
insights in areas including pure mathematics, computer science,
physics etc.
The Scottish Category Theory Seminar provides a forum for discussion
of all aspects of category, be they straight category theory or
applications to other scientific fields. We meet for an afternoon once
every few months, at some congenial location in Scotland. Talks by
Scots and by visitors are welcome. Please contact us if you would like
to host a meeting or give a talk. Meetings are open, and all are
welcome to attend. For more information about the Scottish Category
Theory Seminar, please contact scotcats@cis.strath.ac.uk.
The Scottish
Category Theory Seminar is run by Neil Ghani and Fredrik Nordvall-Fosrberg of the University of
Strathclyde
