Analysis of the degree of overlap between functional magnetic resonance imaging-derived regions of interest (ROIs) has been used to assess the functional convergence and/or segregation of category-selective brain areas. An examination of the extant literature reveals no consistent usage for how such overlap is calculated, nor any systematic comparison between different methods. We argue that ho...

We study internal structures in the category of algebras for an operad, and show that these themselves admit an operadic description. The main case of interest is where the operad is on an abelian category, and the internal structures in question are those of internal category, internal n-category, or internal (cubical) n-tuple category. This allows an operadic treatment of crossed modules and ...

In the definition of a crossed module $(T,G,rho)$, the actions of the group $T$ and $G$ on themselves are given by conjugation. In this paper, we consider these actions to be arbitrary and thus generalize the concept of ordinary crossed module. Therefore, we get the category ${bf GCM}$, of all generalized crossed modules and generalized crossed module morphisms between them, and investigate som...

The (usual) Caldero-Chapoton map is a map from the set of objects of a category to a Laurent polynomial ring over the integers. In the case of a cluster category, it maps “reachable” indecomposable objects to the corresponding cluster variables in a cluster algebra. This formalises the idea that the cluster category is a “categorification” of the cluster algebra. The definition of the Caldero-C...

We define a new topos, the Herbrand topos, inspired by the modified realizability topos and our earlier work on Herbrand realizability. We also introduce the category of Herbrand assemblies and characterise these as the ¬¬-separated objects in the Herbrand topos. In addition, we show that the category of sets is included as the category of ¬¬-sheaves and prove that the inclusion functor preserv...
