"A glimpse of categorical algebra"

-Abstract
Category theory occupies a central position in contemporary mathematics and theoretical computer science, and occurs as well in other areas such as mathematical physics and linguistics. Roughly speaking, it provides a general abstract theory of structures and of systems of structures.
The study of categories is an attempt to axiomatically capture what is commonly found in various classes of related mathematical structures.

"Understanding Defaults"
Juan Miguel A. MONTES (Padova, Dip. Mat.)

-Abstract
The possibility that a debtor may default poses a big risk to investors. Such a risk, called credit risk, is one of the risks present in financial markets. It is traditionally modelled in isolation from other kinds of risk such as the risk due to volatility, known as equity risk. In fact equity risk is observed to be connected to credit risk.
