Shall We (Math and) Dance?

Abstract: Can we use mathematics, and in particular the abstract branch of category theory, to describe some basics of dance, and to highlight structural similarities between music and dance? We first summarize recent studies between mathematics and dance, and between music and categories. Then, we extend this formalism and diagrammatic thinking style to dance.

“…Tarian adalah sub-bidang matematika, khususnya geometri (Mannone & Turchet, 2019;Rawani et al, 2023). Tarian dapat membantu menghubungkan konsep matematika yang lebih abstrak dengan gerakan yang konkret dan mendasar (Rhodes, 2006).…”

“…This technique is based on some hints from the mathematical theory of musical gestures. This is a fertile field of research (Mazzola and Andreatta 2007;Jedrzejewski 2019;Arias 2018;Arias-Valero and Lluis-Puebla 2020;Mannone and Turchet 2019;Clark 2020). The language of categories and some of its results and constructions (Mac Lane 1978;Fuyama, Saigo, and Takahashi 2020) are decisive to build the abstract and general tools of gesture theory.…”

“…Categories have also been applied to music (Mazzola et al 2018;Popoff et al 2015;Jedrzejewski 2006Jedrzejewski , 2019Fiore and Noll 2011;Mannone 2018a). We can describe, with categories, musical structures as elements and transformations between them, musical gestures (Mazzola and Andreatta 2010;Arias 2018), recursive musical gestures (Mannone 2018c), and even musical instruments (Mannone and Favali 2019), and music and dance (Mannone and Turchet 2019). In recent literature, there have been some pioneering connections between quantum mechanics and diagrammatic thinking (Coecke 2006).…”
