Introduction to Category Theory

This note teaches the basics of category theory, in a way that is accessible and relevant to computer scientists. The emphasis is on gaining a good understanding the basic definitions, examples, and techniques, so that students are equipped for further study on their own of more advanced topics if required.

Oriented Category Theory

As categorical dimension increases, constructions such as cylinders, cones, and suspensions are no longer functorial in the old sense. These notes extend higher categories to oriented and antioriented categories. Compositions there commute only up to a coherent interchange law.

Lecture Notes  Category Theory

Lecture Notes Category Theory

Category theory, a branch of abstract algebra, has found many applications in mathematics, logic, and computer science. Like such fields as elementary logic and set theory, category theory provides a basic conceptual apparatus and a collection of formal methods useful for addressing certain kinds of commonly occurring formal and informal problems, particularly those involving structural and functional considerations. This course and nbsp, note is intended to acquaint students with these methods, and also to encourage them to reflect on the interrelations between category theory and the other basic formal disciplines.
