In this graduate-level book, leading researchers explore various new notions of 'space' in mathematics.
Mathieu Anel is a Visiting Assistant Professor at Carnegie Mellon University. His research interests include higher category theory, algebraic topology, and topos theory. Gabriel Catren is Permanent Researcher in philosophy of physics at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS). His research interests include the foundations of classical and quantum mechanics, and the foundations of gauge theories.
'The essays are self-contained, providing motivation to read selectively. Examples in each chapter illustrate the usefulness of these new notions of space … Recommended.' M. Clay, Choice Magazine
