categorical logic and computation

118 Views Asked by At

After encountering the field of Categorical Logic recently, and more specifically the nLab page on Computational Trilogy as well as this paper, I'm under the impression that we have a pretty complete categorical formalization of at least one of the several equivalent fundamental notions of computation. Given this, I have two probably extremely naive questions:

(i) Have we tried to categorify computational complexity theory?

(ii) If (i) is somehow possible, could we hope that maybe "functorial invariants'' have something to say about identification problems? Like $P = NP$?

I am curious whether the above even make sense and whether any work has been done which could be said to pursue them.
