Funded Activity Summary

Category theory arising from geometry, algebra, computer science and physics. Category theory is a branch of mathematics concerned with transformation and composition. It provides an algebra of wide-spread applicability for the synthesis of systems and processes in fields as diverse as geometry, physics and computer science, and also in mathematics itself. Often it can be used to clarify and simplify the learning, teaching and development of mathematics. The aim of this project is to develop the general theory of categories and specifically to investigate aspects appropriate to algebra, physics and computer science.
