Description
Polygraphs: From Rewriting to Higher Categories is a comprehensive mathematical treatise that bridges classical rewriting theory with contemporary higher categorical structures. This volume, part of the prestigious London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series, gathers contributions from leading experts in the field.
The book systematically develops polygraph theory, examining how these combinatorial objects generalize traditional rewriting systems and provide powerful frameworks for understanding algebraic structures. It explores applications across multiple mathematical domains, including homological algebra, formal language theory, and categorical logic.
Readers will discover how polygraphs facilitate the study of complex mathematical objects by decomposing them into manageable components. The work is essential for researchers in category theory, mathematical logic, computer science, and algebraic topology seeking to understand advanced theoretical foundations and computational methods in modern mathematics.
