Hopefully, you didn’t notice, but Golem V has been replaced. Superficially, the new machine looks pretty much like the old. It’s another Mac Mini, with an (8-core) Apple Silicon M2 chip (instead of a ...

Sep 30, 2024 Let’s think about how classical statistical mechanics reduces to thermodynamics in the limit where Boltzmann’s constant \(k\) approaches zero, by looking at an example.

A function is determined by its effect on elements. That is, define an element of a set S S as a function 1 → S \mathbf {1} \to S. Then whenever f, g: X → Y f, g:X \to Y with fx = gx f x = g x for all ...

Here’s some basic information about the next big annual applied category theory conference — Applied Category Theory 2025 — and the school that goes along with that: the Adjoint School.

Feb 10, 2014 There will be 4 talks on “Network Theory” and one on “Operads and the Tree of Life” at the University of Oxford. Landsman on Quantization of Poisson Algebras Associated to Lie Algebroids ...

I’m teaching Edinburgh’s undergraduate Axiomatic Set Theory course, and the axioms we’re using are Lawvere’s Elementary Theory of the Category of Sets — with the twist that everything’s going to be ...

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 ...

In Part 1, I explained my hopes that classical statistical mechanics reduces to thermodynamics in the limit where Boltzmann’s constant k k approaches zero. In Part 2, I explained exactly what I mean ...
