Galois Theory of Algorithms (2018) [pdf]

Hacker News

Many different programs are the implementation of the same algorithm. The collection of programs can be partitioned into different classes corresponding to the algorithms they implement. This makes the collection of algorithms a quotient of the collection of programs. We investigate how a quotient object sits inside an object.
