Adinkras are not Category Diagrams (among other things, if you have A->B and B->C you don't necessarily have A->C). Here's the original paper: http://arxiv.org

Adinkras are not Category Diagrams (among other things, if you have A->B and B->C you don't necessarily have A->C). Here's the original paper:

Urs Schreiber speculated a while ago that there may be a connection between adinkra diagrams and categories

But to my knowledge, the connection has not been made explicit.
- fusiongyro 14y agoThanks! I'm definitely out of my league here; I found the second blog article and went based on my glancing at that. IIRC the transitivity of the category diagram is of paramount importance, so I wouldn't think the analogy holds if transitivity doesn't. Category theory is an interest of mine I hope to develop further but there's a lot of preliminary learning I need to do first.
