May 29, 2017 at 5:40 | comment | added | მამუკა ჯიბლაძე | The question about in what sense are $\mathrm{Set}^A$ and $\mathrm{Set}^{A^{op}}$ dual to each other is very interesting. Lawvere has several deep considerations on that, built around the analogy with the duality between functions and distributions. | |
