Nick Gurski, assistant professor of mathematics, has been appointed as a founding editor of the new journal Compositionality, named after the principle that describes and quantifies how complex things can be assembled out of simpler parts.
The open-access journal will feature research using compositional ideas, most notably of a category-theoretic origin, in any discipline. Topics may concern foundational structures, an organizing principle or a powerful tool in areas, including computation, logic, physics, chemistry, engineering, linguistics and cognition.
