On Doctrines and Cartesian Bicategories

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Alessio Santamaria, Jens Seeber, and Paweł Sobociński

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 211, 9th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2021)

Abstract
We study the relationship between cartesian bicategories and a specialisation of Lawvere’s hyperdoctrines, namely elementary existential doctrines. Both provide different ways of abstracting the structural properties of logical systems: the former in algebraic terms based on a string diagrammatic calculus, the latter in universal terms using the fundamental notion of adjoint functor. We prove that these two approaches are related by an adjunction, which can be strengthened to an equivalence by imposing further constraints on doctrines.

The Axiom of Choice in Cartesian Bicategories

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Jens Seeber, and Paweł Sobociński

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 139, 8th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2019)

Abstract
We argue that cartesian bicategories, often used as a general categorical algebra of relations, are also a natural setting for the study of the axiom of choice (AC). In this setting, AC manifests itself as an inequation asserting that every total relation contains a map. The generality of cartesian bicategories allows us to separate this formulation from other set-theoretically equivalent properties, for instance that epimorphisms split. Moreover, via a classification result, we show that cartesian bicategories satisfying choice tend to be those that arise from bicategories of spans.

Graphical Conjunctive Queries

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Jens Seeber, and Pawel Sobocinski

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 119, 27th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2018)

Abstract
The Calculus of Conjunctive Queries (CCQ) has foundational status in database theory. A celebrated theorem of Chandra and Merlin states that CCQ query inclusion is decidable. Its proof transforms logical formulas to graphs: each query has a natural model - a kind of graph - and query inclusion reduces to the existence of a graph homomorphism between natural models. We introduce the diagrammatic language Graphical Conjunctive Queries (GCQ) and show that it has the same expressivity as CCQ. GCQ terms are string diagrams, and their algebraic structure allows us to derive a sound and complete axiomatisation of query inclusion, which turns out to be exactly Carboni and Walters' notion of cartesian bicategory of relations. Our completeness proof exploits the combinatorial nature of string diagrams as (certain cospans of) hypergraphs: Chandra and Merlin's insights inspire a theorem that relates such cospans with spans. Completeness and decidability of the (in)equational theory of GCQ follow as a corollary. Categorically speaking, our contribution is a model-theoretic completeness theorem of free cartesian bicategories (on a relational signature) for the category of sets and relations.
