متن کاملDoes Category Theory Provide a Framework for Mathematical Structuralism?∗
Category theory and topos theory have been seen as providing a structuralist framework for mathematics autonomous vis à vis set theory. It is argued here that these theories require a background logic of relations and substantive assumptions addressing mathematical existence of categories themselves. We propose a synthesis of Bell’s “many-topoi” view and modal-structuralism. Surprisingly, a com...

The paper defends a formal conception of the empirical sciences that has an irreducible ontological bas...
