Presheaves on lax double functors; or, Instances of models of double theories

Kevin Carlson, Evan Patterson

We introduce a notion of (co)presheaf on a lax double functor , which we generally call an instance. In the terminology of double-categorical logic, a lax double functor valued…

Dependent Directed Wiring Diagrams for Composing Instantaneous Systems

Keri D'Angelo, Sophie Libkind

Directed wiring diagrams can be used as a composition pattern for composing input/output systems such as Moore machines. In a Moore machine, the input parametrizes an internal stat…

Organizing Physics with Open Energy-Driven Systems

Matteo Capucci, Owen Lynch, David I. Spivak

Organizing physics has been a long-standing preoccupation of applied category theory, going back at least to Lawvere. We contribute to this research thread by noticing that Hamilto…

Approximate Inference via Fibrations of Statistical Games

Toby St Clere Smithe

We characterize a number of well known systems of approximate inference as loss models: lax sections of 2-fibrations of statistical games, constructed by attaching internally-defin…
