Compositionality — First Issue

Azimuth 2019-12-30

Yay! The first volume of Compositionality has been published! You can read it here:

“Compositionality” is about how complex things can be assembled out of simpler parts. Compositionality is a journal for research using compositional ideas, most notably of a category-theoretic origin, in any discipline. Example areas include but are not limited to: computation, logic, physics, chemistry, engineering, linguistics, and cognition.

Compositionality is a diamond open access journal. That means it’s free to publish in and free to read.
