In category theory, a Lawvere theory (named after American mathematician William Lawvere) is a category that can be considered a categorical counterpart of the notion of an equational theory. (Wikipedia).

The Lawvere fixed point theorem
In this video we prove a version of Lawveres fixed point theorem that holds in Cartesian closed categories. It's a nice construction that specializes to results such as Cantors diagonal argument and prove the the power set of a set is classically always larger than the set itself. https:/

This lecture is part of an online course on Galois theory. This is an introductory lecture, giving an informal overview of Galois theory. We discuss some historical examples of problems that it was used to solve, such as the Abel-Ruffini theorem that degree 5 polynomials cannot in genera

Mr LIMA de CARVALHO e SILVA - From Essential Inclusions to Local Geometric Morphisms
It is well known that, given a site of denition, a subtopos of Grothendieck topos can be obtained by strengthening the Grothendieck topology, thus obtaining an inclusion of toposes. An essential inclusion is one where the inverse image functor of this inclusion has a left adjoint. Kelly an

Everything You Need to Know About Control Theory
Control theory is a mathematical framework that gives us the tools to develop autonomous systems. Walk through all the different aspects of control theory that you need to know. Some of the concepts that are covered include: - The difference between open-loop and closed-loop control - How

What A General Diagonal Argument Looks Like (Category Theory)
Diagonal Arguments are a powerful tool in maths, and appear in several different fundamental results, like Cantor's original Diagonal argument proof (there exist uncountable sets, or "some infinities are bigger than other infinities"), Turing's Halting Problem, Gödel's incompleteness theor
