Mathematics > Category Theory Abstract: Homotopy Type Theory may be seen as a language for the category of weak oo-groupoids. In category theory, a monad can be constructed from two adjoint functors. In 1942–45, mathematicians Samuel Eilenberg (right) and Saunders Mac Lane (left), introduced category theory as part of their work in algebraic topology. The entire contents of the 3rd edition of Category theory for computing science, by Michael Barr and Charles Wells, is now available online at either of these addresses: http://www.abstractmath.org/CTCS/ctcs.pdf. The idea of combining arrows in this way is what Category Theory is about. There are many books designed to introduce category theory to either a mathematical audience or a computer science audience. In this article I am looking forward to discuss the other two common characteristics of grounded theory: Coding and diagramming and identifying the core category. The story of Category Theory is markedly different from that of mathematical logic and set theory. [Edit May 11, 2012: I've got a whole blog on Category Theory in JavaScript.] There are several good introductions to category theory, each written for a different audience. By definition, a category is just a collection of points along with arrows between them which can be combined to form new arrows. David Kazhdan has some interesting things to say about model theory, and in particular its relationship to category theory, in his Lecture notes in Motivic Integration. In this book, our audience is the broader scientific community. This caught my eye on the arXiv blog: the prospect of finding a (physics) theory of everything using category theory. In particular, if C and D are categories and F : C --> D and G : D --> C are adjoint functors, in the sense that there is a bijection.

Take a computer scientist perspective on the notion of a model category, something fashionable some ten years ago. In a recent paper, Catherine Meusburger, Gregor Schaumann and I worked out a theory of these Gray category diagrams.
