Description: Categorical Foundations: Special Topics in Order, Topology, Algebra, and Sheaf Theory by Pedicchio, Maria Cristina Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Researchers, teachers and graduate students in algebra and topology—familiar with the very basic notions of category theory—will welcome this categorical introduction to some of the key areas of modern mathematics, without being forced to study category theory. Rather, each of the eight largely independent chapters analyzes a particular subject, revealing the power and applicability of the categorical foundations in each case. Publisher Description The book offers categorical introductions to order, topology, algebra and sheaf theory, suitable for graduate students, teachers and researchers of pure mathematics. Readers familiar with the very basic notions of category theory will learn about the main tools that are used in modern categorical mathematics but are not readily available in the literature. Hence, in eight rather independent chapters the reader will encounter various ways of how to study spaces: order-theoretically via their open-set lattices, as objects of a fairly abstract category merely via their interaction with other objects, or via their topoi of set-valued sheaves. Likewise, algebras are treated both as models for Lawveres algebraic theories and as Eilenberg-Moore algebras for monads, but they appear also as the objects of an abstract category with various levels of exactness conditions. The abstract methods are illustrated by applications which, in many cases, lead to results not yet found in more traditional presentations of the various subjects, for instance on the exponentiability of spaces and embeddability of algebras. Suggestions for further studies and research are also given.
