Abstract Using the theory of ${\mathbf {FS}} {^\mathrm {op}}$ modules, we study the asymptotic behavior of the homology of ${\overline {\mathcal {M}}_{g,n}}$ , the Deligne–Mumford compactification of the moduli space of curves, for $n\gg 0$ . An ${\mathbf {FS}} {^\mathrm {op}}$ module is a contravariant functor from the category of finite sets and surjections to vector spaces. Via copies that glue on marked projective lines, we give the homology of ${\overline {\mathcal {M}}_{g,n}}$ the structure of an ${\mathbf {FS}} {^\mathrm {op}}$ module and bound its degree of generation. As a consequence, we prove that the generating function $\sum _{n} \dim (H_i({\overline {\mathcal {M}}_{g,n}})) t^n$ is rational, and its denominator has roots in the set $\{1, 1/2, \ldots, 1/p(g,i)\},$ where $p(g,i)$ is a polynomial of order $O(g^2 i^2)$ . We also obtain restrictions on the decomposition of the homology of ${\overline {\mathcal {M}}_{g,n}}$ into irreducible $\mathbf {S}_n$ representations.

The category theory deals with mathematical structures and relationships between them. Categories now appear in most branches of mathematics and in some areas of theoretical computer science and mathematical physics, and acting as a unifying notion. In this paper, we study the relationship between the category of groups and the category of intuitionistic fuzzy groups. We prove that the category of groups is a subcategory of category of intuitionistic fuzzy groups and that it is not an Abelian category. We establish a function β : Hom(A, B) → [0; 1] × [0; 1] on the set of all intuitionistic fuzzy homomorphisms between intuitionistic fuzzy groups A and B of groups G and H, respectively. We prove that β is a covariant functor from the category of groups to the category of intuitionistic fuzzy groups. Further, we show that the category of intuitionistic fuzzy groups is a top category by establishing a contravariant functor from the category of intuitionistic fuzzy groups to the lattices of all intuitionistic fuzzy groups.

In this article, we investigate the fundamental properties of coalgebras with coalgebra comultiplications, counits, and coalgebra homomorphisms of coalgebras over a commutative ring R with identity 1R based on digital images with adjacency relations. We also investigate a contravariant functor from the category of digital images and digital continuous functions to the category of coalgebras and coalgebra homomorphisms based on digital images via the category of unitary R-modules and R-module homomorphisms.

In this paper, we consider the digital cohomology modules of a digital image consisting of a bounded and finite subset of Zn and an adjacency relation. We construct a contravariant functor from the category of digital images and digital continuous functions to the category of unitary R-modules and R-module homomorphisms via the category of cochain complexes of R-modules and cochain maps, where R is a commutative ring with identity 1R. We also examine the digital primitive cohomology classes based on digital images and find the relationship between R-module homomorphisms of digital cohomology modules induced by the digital convolutions and digital continuous functions.

Abstract In order to understand negation as such, at least since Aristotle’s time, there have been many ways of conceptually modelling it. In particular, negation has been studied as inconsistency, contradictoriness, falsity, cancellation, an inversion of arrangements of truth values, etc. In this paper, making substantial use of category theory, we present three more conceptual and abstract models of negation. All of them capture negation as turning upside down the entire structure under consideration. The first proposal turns upside down the structure almost literally; it is the well known construction of opposite category. The second one treats negation as a contravariant functor and the third one captures negation as adjointness. Traditionally, negation was investigated in the context of language as negation of sentences or parts of sentences, e.g. names. On the contrary we propose to negate structures globally. As a consequence of our approach we provide a solution to the ontological problem of the existence of negative states of affairs.

A supersymmetric generalization of the Krichever map is proposed. This map assigns injectively a point of an infinite dimensional super Grassmannian to a set of geometric data consisting of an arbitrary algebraic super manifold of dimension 1|1 defined over a field of any characteristic and a line bundle on it. The naturality of this map comes from the fact that it is obtained as the restriction of a contravariant functor to certain special objects. This functor gives an antiequivalence between the category of infinite dimensional super vector spaces satisfying the Fredholm condition together with their stabilizers, and the category of algebraic super curves and certain sheaves on them including all even vector bundles of arbitrary rank.

Equivalence between the following categories is established: 1) A category of arbitrary vector bundles on algebraic curves defined over a field of arbitrary characteristic, and 2) a category of infinite dimensional vector spaces corresponding to certain points of Grassmannians together with their stabilizers. Our contravariant functor between these categories gives a full generalization of the well-known Krichever map, which assigns points of Grassmannians to the geometric data consisting of curves and line bundles. As an application, a solution to the classical problem of Wallenberg-Schur of classifying all commutative algebras consisting of ordinary differential operators is obtained. It is also shown that the KP flows produce all generic vector bundles on arbitrary algebraic curves of genus greater than one.

Whenever a covariant (resp. contravariant) functor F from a category of groups is given, it is natural to ask the following question: if a homomorphismof groups induces the isomorphism (resp., ), is f itself an isomorphism?

AbstractG(A, X) consists of all homotopy classes of cyclic maps from a space A to another space X. If A is an H-cogroup, then G(A, X) is a group. G(A, X) preserves products in the second variable and is a contravariant functor of A from the full subcategory of H-cogroups and maps into the category of abelian groups and homomorphisms. If X is an H-cogroup, then G(X, X) is a ring.

Kan and Miller have shown in [9] that the homotopy type of a finite simplicial set K can be recovered from its R-algebra of 0-forms A0K, when R is a unique factorization domain. More precisely, if is the category of simplicial sets and is the category of R-algebras there is a contravariant functorwiththe simplicial set homomorphisms from X to the simplicial R-algebra ∇, whereand the faces and degeneracies of ∇ are induced byandrespectively.
