Abstract:We construct exponential objects in categories of generalized uniform hypergraphs and use embeddings induced by nerve-realization adjunctions to show why conventional categories of graphs and hypergraphs do not have exponential objects.As a consequence of our constructions we address the problem that the category of k-uniform hypergraphs (as defined in [4]) lacks connected colimits, exponentials and does not continuously embed into the category of hypergraphs. We prove there is a continuous embedding of the ca… Show more
