A General Galois Theory for Operations and Relations in Arbitrary Categories

Kerkhoff, Sebastian 20 September 2011 (has links) (PDF)
In this paper, we generalize the notions of polymorphisms and invariant relations to arbitrary categories. This leads us to a Galois connection that coincides with the classical case from universal algebra if the underlying category is the category of sets, but remains applicable no matter how the category is changed. In analogy to the situation in universal algebra, we characterize the Galois closed classes by local closures of clones of operations and local closures of what we will introduce as clones of (generalized) relations. Since the approach is built on purely category-theoretic properties, we will also discuss the dualization of our notions.

A General Duality Theory for Clones

Kerkhoff, Sebastian 12 October 2011 (has links) (PDF)
In this thesis, we generalize clones (as well as their relational counterparts and the relationship between them) to categories. Based on this framework, we introduce a general duality theory for clones and apply it to obtain new results for clones on finite sets.
