Abstract

Differential categories are now an established abstract setting for differentiation. The paper presents the parallel development for integration by axiomatizing  
an integral transformation in a symmetric monoidal category with a coalgebra modality.  When integration is combined with differentiation, the two fundamental theorems of calculus are expected to hold (in a suitable sense):  a differential category with integration which satisfies 
these two theorem is called a calculus category.  

Modifying an approach to antiderivatives by T. Ehrhard,  it is shown how examples of calculus categories arise as differential categories with antiderivatives in this new sense.   Having antiderivatives amounts to demanding that a certain natural transformation K, is invertible. We observe that a differential category having antiderivatives, in this sense, is always a calculus category and we provide examples of such categories.
