Synopsis

Category theory has become the universal language of modern mathematics. This book is a collection of articles applying methods of category theory to the areas of algebra, geometry, and mathematical physics. Among others, this book contains articles on higher categories and their applications and on homotopy theoretic methods. The reader can learn about the exciting new interactions of category theory with very traditional mathematical disciplines.
