Topic: Collection honouring Robert Paré for his 80th birthday


view this post on Zulip Bryce Clarke (Sep 21 2024 at 12:51):

We are pleased to announce a special collection in Applied Categorical Structures honouring our friend and colleague, Bob Paré, on the occasion of this 80th birthday. 

Throughout his career Bob (Professor Emeritus and Adjunct Professor at Dalhousie University) has made several lasting contributions to category theory, including notable research in a broad range of subjects, such as double categories, higher categories, indexed categories, toposes and accessible categories. This collection will bring together contributions which honour the lasting impact Bob has made, and is making, in the category theory community.

Submissions will be open from 1 October 2024 until 30 June 2025 at this link: https://link.springer.com/collections/dijeibfdbh

All submissions on topics which celebrate Bob's work are welcome, including double categories, higher categories, indexed categories, toposes and accessible categories. 

The collection will be edited by four guest editors:  

The publication process for this collection in Applied Categorical Structures differs from the traditional model for a special volume. Articles are published within whichever issue is open at the time, and concurrently published in the collection available at the above link. This helps papers to be published quickly, without having to wait for a whole issue to be ready, while still allowing all papers in the collection to be available in a single place.

The editors are happy to answer any questions, and we look forward to receiving your submissions. 

Best wishes, 

Bryce, Marco, Dorette, and Christina.
