DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/BilTop/107/"
 >Simplicial methods in the resource theory of contextuality</a>\nby Aziz K
 haroof (Bilkent University) as part of Bilkent Topology Seminar\n\nLecture
  held in SA 141.\n\nAbstract\nWe introduce the concept of a category of sc
 enarios structured over a monad with a gluing operator. Our main examples 
 are the category of simplicial bundle scenarios and the category of stocha
 stic bundle scenarios. Using a relative variant of the Grothendieck constr
 uction\, we define the simplicial distribution functor\, which extends the
  functor of empirical models. Finally\, we leverage contextuality to chara
 cterize the convex maps between simplicial distributions\, which are conve
 x combinations of maps induced by morphisms in the category of simplicial 
 bundle scenarios.\n
