An example of a cartesian differential category from functor calculus

In this talk, I will provide an introduction to abelian functor calculus, a version of functor calculus inspired by classical constructions of Dold and Puppe, and of Eilenberg and Mac Lane. I will then explain how the analog of a directional derivative in abelian functor calculus gives rise to the structure of a cartesian differential category for a particular category of functors of abelian categories.Non UBCUnreviewedAuthor affiliation: Union CollegeFacult
