Functors in Lorentzian geometry -- three variations on a theme

arXiv:2205.01617 · doi:10.1007/s10714-023-03087-7

Abstract

We review three examples of functors from Lorentzian categories and their applications in finiteness results, singularity theorems and boundary constructions. The third example is a novel functor from the category of ordered measure spaces to the category of Lorentzian pre-length spaces in the sense of Kunzinger-Sämann.
