Computads with invertible generators for weak ω-categories

Thibaut Benjamin, Camil Champin, Ioannis Markakis

We extend the notion of computads for weak \(ω\)-categories to allow marking certain generators as invertible, and describe inductively the free \(ω\)-categories they generate. Thi…

A type theory for invertibility in weak -categories

Thibaut Benjamin, Camil Champin, Ioannis Markakis

We present a conservative extension ICaTT of the dependent type theory CaTT for weak -categories with a type witnessing coinductive invertibility of cells. This extension allows…

Beyond Eckmann-Hilton: Commutativity in Higher Categories

Thibaut Benjamin, Ioannis Markakis, Wilfred Offord +2

We show that in a weak globular -category, all composition operations are equivalent and commutative for cells with sufficiently degenerate boundary, which can be considered a h…

Naturality for higher-dimensional path types

Thibaut Benjamin, Ioannis Markakis, Wilfred Offord +2

We define a naturality construction for the operations of weak omega-categories, as a meta-operation in a dependent type theory. Our construction has a geometrical motivation as a…

Invertible cells in -categories

Thibaut Benjamin, Ioannis Markakis

We study coinductive invertibility of cells in weak -categories. We use the inductive presentation of weak -categories via an adjunction with the category of computads, and s…

CaTT contexts are finite computads

Thibaut Benjamin, Ioannis Markakis, Chiara Sarti

Two novel descriptions of weak ω-categories have been recently proposed, using type-theoretic ideas. The first one is the dependent type theory CaTT whose models are ω-categories.…

Hom -categories of a computad are free

Thibaut Benjamin, Ioannis Markakis

We provide a new description of the hom functor on weak -categories, and we show that it admits a left adjoint that we call the suspension functor. We then show that the hom fun…

Computads for generalised signatures

Ioannis Markakis

We introduce a notion of signature whose sorts form a direct category, and study computads for such signatures. Algebras for such a signature are presheaves with an interpretation…

Computads for weak -categories as an inductive type

Christopher J. Dean, Eric Finster, Ioannis Markakis +2

We give a new description of computads for weak globular -categories by giving an explicit inductive definition of the free words. This yields a new understanding of computads,…

Computing minimal generating systems for some special toric ideals

Dimitrios I. Dais, Ioannis Markakis

Let be the projective toric surface associated to a lattice polytope . If the number of lattice points lying on the boundary of is at least , it is known that $X_…
