Category Theoretic Analysis of Hierarchical Protein Materials and Social Networks
Materials in biology span all the scales from Angstroms to meters and typically consist of complex hierarchical assemblies of simple building blocks. Here we describe an application of category theory to describe structural and resulting functional properties of biological protein materials by devel...
