Abstract
Open maps and path lifting appears in a number of fields and in a number of guises. I am going to use the example of event structures to explore what open maps can do, whether that’s bisimulations or symmetry.
Covering:
- What is an open map and path lifting
- Event structures and what open maps look like
- Bisimulation from open maps
- Some symmetry stuff
Prerequisites:
- Basic category theory: spans, pullbacks, presheaves
- Some basic concurrency models: event structures, synchronisation trees, labelled transition systems (the first two papers will have quick synopsis for all)
Series This talk is part of the Logic & Semantics for Dummies series.
