VIRTUAL DOUBLE CATEGORIES WORKSHOP

Dates: Monday 28 November - Friday 2 December 2022

Location: virtually on Zoom

Website: https://bryceclarke.github.io/virtual-double-categories-workshop/

Research seminars: https://researchseminars.org/seminar/VirtualDoubleCategoriesWorkshop

The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers to share recent
work on double categories and their applications to domains such as
computer science, type theory, applied category theory, and higher
category theory. The workshop will be open for everyone to attend online,
with recordings of the talks being uploaded after the workshop is finished.

Speakers have been invited to give talks all along the
“expository–technical” scale, so the workshop will hopefully be of interest
to both those who are new to double categories and want to learn about
the fundamental techniques and viewpoints, and also to domain
specialists who are interested in technical results and current topics of
active research.

We hope that this workshop will create a snapshot of the research area
as it currently stands together with directions for future work, as well as
provide an invitation to people wanting to know more about the area, or
who are wondering if the tools or ideas in double category theory might
be useful to their own research.

FORMAT AND REGISTRATION

The workshop will be hosted on Zoom, and we welcome all participants.
If you are interested in joining the workshop, then please use the

Cool! I presume the pun on "virtual" is intended?

Absolutely :)

I'm looking forward to the talks, but the name of the workshop is a little misleading :grimacing: (I imagine only Seerp Roald Koudenburg's talk will actually be about virtual double categories.)
