I'm looking to get my hands on a (.pdf) copy of Lawvere's 1986 preprint State categories and response functors. If someone can post it and answer this question by offering a link, I'd appreciate it.

    $\begingroup$ Perhaps this paper is related to Lawvere's earlier, 1984 paper "State Categories, Closed Categories, and the Existence Semi-Continuous Entropy Functions", available online here: conservancy.umn.edu/handle/11299//4672 . Thanks to Thomas Holder for pointing this out. Still, I'm looking for the preprint discussed above "State categories and response functors"! $\endgroup$ Apr 22, 2016 at 17:41

A draft of Lawvere's paper was sent to me by Joachim Kock; it's the best I've found. I put it on my webpage for the convenience of others.
