Kan Extension
Revision as of 09:42, 6 December 2021 by Benkoo (talk | contribs) (→Richard Southwell on Kan Extensions)
Kan extension is a universal construct of generalized data type defined in Category Theory.
Proposed Application
Conceptually, we can use Kan Extension to generalize logic gates, specifically, two inputs, one output gates.
There are a total of 16 possible 2-input, 1-output, logic gates. They should be generalizable and represented using Kan Extension.
