Abstract simplicial complex

In combinatorics, an abstract simplicial complex (ASC), often called an abstract complex or just a complex, is a family of sets that is closed under taking subsets, i.e., every subset of a set in the family is also in the family. Simplex category and abstract simplicial complex are algebraic topology and simplicial sets.

Adjoint functors

In mathematics, specifically category theory, adjunction is a relationship that two functors may exhibit, intuitively corresponding to a weak form of equivalence between two related categories.

See Simplex category and Adjoint functors

Category theory

Category theory is a general theory of mathematical structures and their relations.

See Simplex category and Category theory

Empty set

In mathematics, the empty set is the unique set having no elements; its size or cardinality (count of elements in a set) is zero.

See Simplex category and Empty set

Functor category

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a functor category D^C is a category where the objects are the functors F: C \to D and the morphisms are natural transformations \eta: F \to G between the functors (here, G: C \to D is another object in the category). Simplex category and functor category are categories in category theory.

See Simplex category and Functor category

Mathematics

Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes abstract objects, methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself.

See Simplex category and Mathematics

Monad (category theory)

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a monad is a triple (T, \eta, \mu) consisting of a functor T from a category to itself and two natural transformations \eta, \mu that satisfy the conditions like associativity.

See Simplex category and Monad (category theory)

Monoid (category theory)

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a monoid (or monoid object, or internal monoid, or algebra) in a monoidal category is an object M together with two morphisms. Simplex category and monoid (category theory) are categories in category theory.

See Simplex category and Monoid (category theory)

Monoidal category

In mathematics, a monoidal category (or tensor category) is a category \mathbf C equipped with a bifunctor that is associative up to a natural isomorphism, and an object I that is both a left and right identity for ⊗, again up to a natural isomorphism.

See Simplex category and Monoidal category

Monotonic function

In mathematics, a monotonic function (or monotone function) is a function between ordered sets that preserves or reverses the given order.

See Simplex category and Monotonic function

Morphism

In mathematics, a morphism is a concept of category theory that generalizes structure-preserving maps such as homomorphism between algebraic structures, functions from a set to another set, and continuous functions between topological spaces.

See Simplex category and Morphism

Ordinal number

In set theory, an ordinal number, or ordinal, is a generalization of ordinal numerals (first, second, th, etc.) aimed to extend enumeration to infinite sets.

See Simplex category and Ordinal number

Presheaf (category theory)

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a presheaf on a category C is a functor F\colon C^\mathrm\to\mathbf.

See Simplex category and Presheaf (category theory)

PROP (category theory)

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a PROP is a symmetric strict monoidal category whose objects are the natural numbers n identified with the finite sets \ and whose tensor product is given on objects by the addition on numbers.

See Simplex category and PROP (category theory)

Simplicial category

In mathematics, simplicial category may refer to.

See Simplex category and Simplicial category

Simplicial set

In mathematics, a simplicial set is an object composed of simplices in a specific way. Simplex category and simplicial set are algebraic topology, Homotopy theory and simplicial sets.
