  1. Abstract logical structuralism.Jean-Pierre Marquis - 2020 - Philosophical Problems in Science 69:67-110.
    Structuralism has recently moved center stage in philosophy of mathematics. One of the issues discussed is the underlying logic of mathematical structuralism. In this paper, I want to look at the dual question, namely the underlying structures of logic. Indeed, from a mathematical structuralist standpoint, it makes perfect sense to try to identify the abstract structures underlying logic. We claim that one answer to this question is provided by categorical logic. In fact, we claim that the latter can be seen—and (...)

  • A theorem on barr-exact categories, with an infinitary generalization.Michael Makkai - 1990 - Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 47 (3):225-268.
    Let C be a small Barr-exact category, Reg the category of all regular functors from C to the category of small sets. A form of M. Barr's full embedding theorem states that the evaluation functor e : C →[Reg, Set ] is full and faithful. We prove that the essential image of e consists of the functors that preserve all small products and filtered colimits. The concept of κ-Barr-exact category is introduced, for κ any infinite regular cardinal, and the natural (...)

  • Descent and duality.Marek W. Zawadowski - 1995 - Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 71 (2):131-188.
    Using the Makkai's duality for first-order logic, we characterise effective descent morphisms in 2-categories of pretoposes and Barr-exact categories. In both cases they coincide with conservative morphisms. We show that in those 2-categories the 2-coregular factorisations are exactly quotient-conservative factorisations. We also prove a generalisation of the Makkai duality for pseudoelementary categories.

  • First-order logical duality.Steve Awodey - 2013 - Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 164 (3):319-348.
    From a logical point of view, Stone duality for Boolean algebras relates theories in classical propositional logic and their collections of models. The theories can be seen as presentations of Boolean algebras, and the collections of models can be topologized in such a way that the theory can be recovered from its space of models. The situation can be cast as a formal duality relating two categories of syntax and semantics, mediated by homming into a common dualizing object, in this (...)
