Something interesting for you

[edit]

I figured you might like this, especially the appendix. (Note the author.) [1] Tito Omburo (talk) 19:31, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for letting me know about it. It's certainly something, though I wouldn't describe it as interesting. I suspect many of our math articles in Wikipedia would actually look like this document to non-math editors. -- Taku (talk) 09:58, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: L-curve has been accepted

Information icon Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. UtherSRG (talk) 19:10, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please refer to my reply in the talkpage of the article. Needless to say, just because one editor believes there should be a maintenance template, that doesn't mean it cannot be removed. -- Taku (talk) 19:17, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to remove maintenance templates without resolving the problem that the template refers to, you may be blocked from editing. UtherSRG (talk) 19:22, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Now, you crossed a line. Threatening a fellow editor will actually block you from editing. -- Taku (talk) 19:29, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think we need an intervention so I have reported the incident at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Edit_warring#User:UtherSRG_reported_by_User:TakuyaMurata_(Result:_). -- Taku (talk) 19:45, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Taku. That was a messy situation, and I hope you don't encounter too many more like it. The feedback I have for you is that I think the community generally views tags differently from you. For the most part, I've experienced editors leaving tags until the problem is obviously fixed or until discussion shows consensus for removal. You're almost certainly aware of it, but you may want to reread WP:WTRMT. At one point in the discussion you said "if there is an objection, one editor cannot insist on it, right?", and my experience is that most editors would say that tags should remain even if one editor objects. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 12:13, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Depends on the community I think (which was kind of my point in my closing comment at the noticeboard). My experience is that I have almost never had any disputes over tags with other math editors (usually disputes are over content or notability) but such a dispute tends to occur with NPP editors or AfC editors. I suspect because they are used to dealing with new users, they tend to insist on maintenance templates over an objection. In the case in question, my objection was simply: one tag was redundant with the presence of another tag. The other party disagreed. So, the dispute was more of over an appropriateness of putting a tag that I find redundant; and I think I'm right to think no editor can unilaterally overrule an objection when trying to add stuff to the article, including a template. In fact, at the noticeboard thread, ToBeFree wrote "Wikipedia places the burden of proof or the onus to obtain a consensus on those favoring inclusion of the material"; they clarified the material includes a template. Taku (talk) 12:51, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It's not surprising that NPP or AFC editors end up in tag disputes more than math editors generally, since articles tend to be tagged when they're new or under review, and NPP/AFC articles are both. I understand your objection to the tag and don't have a comment. I didn't read TBF's comments as explicitly including templates as material covered by WP:BURDEN/WP:ONUS, but I don't mind conceding the point for the sake of discussion. Even if that BURDEN/ONUS point is a good one, it is my experience that the community frowns on repeated removal of maintenance tags by one party in a two-party dispute. My goal here is to share that experience with you, in case it is helpful. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:18, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
(Yeah, neither WP:BURDEN nor WP:ONUS nor WP:BLPRESTORE apply to maintenance templates. I was trying to explain that this general principle occurs in various policies. Regarding the status quo, WP:PREFER offers this option and I took it in this case, but it's an admin-only option and it's optional. Users who are not acting administratively should never revert for the sole purpose of restoring a "status quo".) ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:24, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I see. Thank you for clarifying. Taku (talk) 03:01, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently the article is protected. Regarding the §.Fundamental group, the following reference seems to require the curve to be non-singular. Ref:Nakamura, Hiroaki (2011). "On Galois rigidity of fundamental groups of algebraic curves" (PDF). Non-abelian Fundamental Groups and Iwasawa Theory. pp. 56–71. doi:10.1017/CBO9780511984440.003. ISBN 978-1-107-64885-2. unsingned by User:SilverMatsu.

The protection is over (so you can edit the article). As for the smoothness, I don't think it's necessary a requirement but just that is common to consider a smooth curve. -- Taku (talk) 06:30, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

weak ω-category

[edit]

Where do we explain the weak ω-category that appears when defining the weak n-category in the Leinster's survey? For example, adding a section of ∞-category to the weak n-category, or creating a ω-category? Also, for clarity, we might have to call it "Leinster's weak ω-category" or "Batanin's weak ω-category".

SilverMatsu (talk) 09:01, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Probably a weak n-category, since Leinster's approach is somehow different from quasi-category one. By the way, the question is somehow related to my proposal to have an article on n-category in general. The proposal is at the talkpage of the weak n-category page. -- Taku (talk) 06:24, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the delay, but I added my comment to the Weak n-category. I'd like to link to this discussion from the article's talk page. Should I use a permanent link?--SilverMatsu (talk) 01:31, 14 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There seems to have been a consensus to merge strict n-category and weak n-category. Closer also agreed to the merge. --SilverMatsu (talk) 11:58, 16 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The -categorical version of Beck's monadicity theorem

[edit]

You might be interested in the following discussion:WT:WPM#Lead sentence of Beck's monadicity theorem. I'm wondering whether the place to explain the -categorical version of Beck's monadicity theorem is the Beck's monadicity theorem or another article of related to Higher Algebra. --SilverMatsu (talk) 02:25, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There was a note about the axiom of choice, but I wonder if anafunctors might be related?--SilverMatsu (talk) 03:31, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So I don’t know that notion, so I cannot really say affirmatively or otherwise. —- Taku (talk) 11:48, 14 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
According to Rezk (2022), the statement seems to relies on the appropriate form of the axiom of choice. --SilverMatsu (talk) 02:20, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the info. We (I?) can update the statement using the ref. —- Taku (talk) 06:08, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, at the beginning of section 44 of Rezk (2022) were talking about quasi-categories, but when talking about AC in "the Fundamental Theorem of Category Theory", Rezk (2022) seemed to be talking about ordinary categories.--SilverMatsu (talk) 07:23, 18 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, in the precategory, even if AC is assumed, that statement does not seem to hold. Is there an article on Wikipedia that explains precategory? (Or would it be better to add that counterexample to the Equivalence of categories?) Ref:Ahrens, Benedikt; Paige Randall North; Shulman, Michael; Tsementzis, Dimitris (2021). "The Univalence Principle (CHAPTER 3, Categories: an extended example, 3.2. Categories in HoTT)". arXiv:2102.06275 [math.CT]. --SilverMatsu (talk) 09:14, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I found a more concise reference:Ahrens, Benedikt; Kapulkin, Krzysztof; Shulman, Michael (2015). "Univalent categories and the :Rezk completion". Mathematical Structures in Computer Science. 25 (5): 1010–1039. doi:10.1017/S0960129514000486.
AC is still required for strict categories, the statement fails even if AC is assumed for precategories, and AC is not required for the proof for saturated categories.--SilverMatsu (talk) 00:20, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Just to respond: it seems this kind of stuff is usually discussed in the context of constructible mathematics, where for example the matter of AC is important. But I don't know if many readers are interested in that aspect. On the other hand, in Wikipedia, we generally mention AC when it is used, as a matter of style. I will look at what reliable references are doing. -- Taku (talk) 09:44, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Figures for 2-category

[edit]

I created a figure of "associativity coherence isomorphisms" for associativity isomorphism, but will I also create a figure of "unit coherence isomorphisms"? If it is necessary to explain 2-category, I will create it, but what do you think?--SilverMatsu (talk) 00:48, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure if we need a separate article only for associativity, since as you said usually we need coherence isomorphisms for other conditions like unit. One possibility is to merge these into coherency (homotopy theory) as that article has a section on coherent isomorphisms -- Taku (talk) 09:40, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, I think it makes sense to explanation both associativity coherence isomorphisms and unit coherence isomorphisms in the section on coherent isomorphisms.--SilverMatsu (talk) 12:08, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
AfD results seem to be no consensus. I asked the closer and he said was no consensus to merge. (I thought the consensus was merge.) Would you like to discuss merging articles? I don't oppose with the merge to Coherency (homotopy theory). However, when explaining associativity isomorphisms, I am notsure whether to explain it as a concept related to the definition of semi-groupal categories (semi-monoidal category). In coherence (homotopy theory), associativity isomorphism is explained as a concept related to monoidal categories, and I think semi-groupal categories (monoidal category without unit isomorphisms) are a niche concept compared to monoidal categories., and perhaps just as niche as semicategories.--SilverMatsu (talk) 01:25, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
