Categorical generalization of BF theory coupled to gravity
A. D. López-Hernández, Graciela Reyes-Ahumada, Javier Chagoya
We present a thorough introduction to the tools of category theory required for formulating gauge theories based on 2-connections. We provide a detailed construction of the categor…
