More recently, these structured sets and their transformations have been assembled in higher structures, called categories. We want to give a structural overview of these topics, where the basic facts of the different theories are unified through the 'universal properties' that they satisfy, and their particularities stand out, perhaps even more. This book can be used as a textbook for undergraduate studies and for self-study. It can provide students of Mathematics with a unified perspective of subjects which are often kept apart. It is also addressed to students and researchers of disciplines having strong interactions with Mathematics, like Physics and Chemistry, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Categories (Mathematics) $v Textbooks. 650 0 $a Discrete mathematics $v Textbooks. 650 0 $a Topology $v Textbooks. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Grandis, Marco. $t Elementary overview of mathematical structures $d New Jersey : World Scientific, [2021] $z 9789811220326 $w (DLC) 2020032227 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210804011916.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BE786F964F2711EB9A63D65926ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
