a copy of Bunge's "Categories of set-valued functors"

Hello everyone!

I was wondering: is there any chance to find an electronic copy of Marta
Bunge's PhD thesis

"Categories of Set-Valued Functors", University of Pennsylvania, 1966

Best,

Hi Fosco Loregian,

I suppose that my thesis must be stored in microfilm at the University of Pennsylvania. I only have my own copy and never bothered to try to obtain one such.

In Research Gate (my page) I uploaded portions of a couple of chapters for specific reasons, one on Regular Categories (my version which includes exactness conditions but not stability) and another on Adoint Functors (between  such categories of “presheaves”). I did not publish my 1966 thesis as such, but at least a relative (to a symmetric monoidal category) version of   the characterization theorem was included in my 1969 Journal of Algebra paper and communicated by Saunders MacLane.

That is all I have. In those days it was not customary to post electronic versions. My own thesis was typed by myself in a typewriter with symbols inserted by hand.

Is there anything specific you would like to have or know?

Regards,
Marta Bunge

Subject to permission of the copyright holder, Wikisource is a
potential repository for a thesis.

The procedure to add a source is described here.

Translation from graphical form (DjVu or PDF) to wikitext is
labour-intensive but assistance of volunteers is possilble.
