  1. Complex systems from the perspective of category theory: I. Functioning of the adjunction concept.Elias Zafiris - 2005 - Axiomathes 15 (1):147-158.
    We develop a category theoretical scheme for the comprehension of the information structure associated with a complex system, in terms of families of partial or local information carriers. The scheme is based on the existence of a categorical adjunction, that provides a theoretical platform for the descriptive analysis of the complex system as a process of functorial information communication.

  • Complex systems from the perspective of category theory: II. Covering systems and sheaves.Elias Zafiris - 2005 - Axiomathes 15 (2):181-190.
    Using the concept of adjunction, for the comprehension of the structure of a complex system, developed in Part I, we introduce the notion of covering systems consisting of partially or locally defined adequately understood objects. This notion incorporates the necessary and sufficient conditions for a sheaf theoretical representation of the informational content included in the structure of a complex system in terms of localization systems. Furthermore, it accommodates a formulation of an invariance property of information communication concerning the analysis of (...)

  • Quantum Event Structures from the Perspective of Grothendieck Topoi.Elias Zafiris - 2004 - Foundations of Physics 34 (7):1063-1090.
    We develop a categorical scheme of interpretation of quantum event structures from the viewpoint of Grothendieck topoi. The construction is based on the existence of an adjunctive correspondence between Boolean presheaves of event algebras and Quantum event algebras, which we construct explicitly. We show that the established adjunction can be transformed to a categorical equivalence if the base category of Boolean event algebras, defining variation, is endowed with a suitable Grothendieck topology of covering systems. The scheme leads to a sheaf (...)
