Algebra is in category category theory and vice versa. Is this correct?

Hmm. When seen formally, category theory is a subset of algebra, so it would make sense to have category theory as a subcategory of algebra. One could justify the other inclusions by saying that you need a lot of category theory when doing algebra, but this seems a bit far-fetched to me. I'd remove it. - Saibot2 23:32, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How about axiomatizable class? I would say it clearly belongs to Mathematical Logic and/or Model theory, but I don't understand why it is in Category theory as well. --Hans Adler 20:17, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There exists a token, consisting of and/or represented by bits, referrable to as or by chronodynamics. By application of category theory to said collection of bits, to what category (of category theory? or some other theory?) would it belong? Or is some extension of category theory required (or even some application of arithmaquining or some such notion), in addition to category theory, in order to render such an object accessible to category theory? (Motivation: another collection of bits, referrable to currently but maybe incorrectly or inappropriately (warning: easter egg ahead) as or by ficton and or fictonics and maybe even, in some future(s), indirectly by way of ficton_(disambiguation), which is under construction and interested in such notions, or at least tokens, as 'chronodynamics' (as in can the past, the present, or the future be changed, if so how.)

This page isn't a real category since there are no morphisms between the articles. (Or maybe it's just a discrete category?) 12AbBa (talk) 06:03, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
