In this post on the n-Category Café, Urs Schreiber says that, "The theory of G-principal bundles makes sense in any $(\infty,1)$-topos." I followed the link to the nLab and tried to chase definitions, …

In another thread, I asked about the $M$ endofunctor on the category $\operatorname{Meas}$ of measurable spaces, which sends a space $X$ to its space of measures $M(X)$. Will Sawin described the mon …

Let $(X, \Sigma)$ denote a measurable space. Is there a non-trivial $\sigma$-algebra $\Sigma^1$ of subsets of $\Sigma$ so that $(\Sigma, \Sigma^1)$ is also a measurable space? Here is one natural …

Consider the category $\operatorname{Meas}$ of measurable spaces: its objects are sets equipped with $\sigma$-algebras, and its morphisms are measurable functions between spaces. As Gerald Edgar & M …

One resource you may like is this recent paper by Culbertson and Sturtz on A Categorical Foundation for Bayesian Probability. Here are some thoughts on the category $\mathrm{Meas}$ of measurable sp …

Thanks William for reaching out (and thanks David Roberts for the hat tip to my talk). Let me give an intentionally fuzzy, high-level answer. Generally speaking, the Yoneda Lemma allows you to make a …

It is common knowledge among schoolchildren that one may define jump diffusion processes in wide generality. Hard question: What are the most general structures on which one may define something whi …

Motivation: Let $\Gamma = (V,E)$ be a directed graph. To each edge $e \in E$, choose a value $\kappa^e \in \mathbb R$, representing the cost of transporting one unit of "stuff" through the edge. Let $ …

Let $\operatorname{Klein}$ denote the category of principal homogeneous bundles. An object in this category is a tuple $\mathbf Q = (Q, P; G, H; q, a, \tilde a)$, where: $G$ is a Lie group, and $H$ …

Here is a candidate class of examples. I have made this community wiki so please feel free to edit it if you can answer it. Or, copy the text and make a new answer so we can give you reputation points …
