Last year, our dear friend and colleague Pieter Hofstra (1975-2022)  passed  away.  Pieter obtained his PhD from Utrecht University, under Jaap van Oosten, studying realizability toposes. His research interests included general topos theory, realizability, inverse semigroups and groupoids, abstract computability, and homotopy type theory. Among his recent works, with J.  Funk, he introduced the notion of isotropy groups of toposes, which he was actively developing with students and colleagues.

While Pieter was a brilliant researcher, a kind teacher and a caring supervisor, we will most remember him as a friend.

This is a second announcement from the guest editors (Richard Blute, Eugenia Cheng, Robin Cockett and
Philip Scott) that the journal Theory and Applications of Categories, a journal for which Pieter was an editor, will dedicate a special volume in his honor.

Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts in electronic form to one of the editors, listed below.

All papers will be carefully refereed following the standards of "Theory and Applications of Categories".

Prospective authors are requested to:

1.  Copy the managing editor of TAC, Geoffrey Cruttwell (attac@mta.ca<mailto:attac@mta.ca>), when submitting an article.

2. As with ordinary TAC papers, for the final version, authors should follow the instructions on the TAC website and then send their final tex and pdf  files to Geoff (again attac@mta.ca<mailto:attac@mta.ca>). The guest editors would much prefer that also the initial submission of a PDF already use the TAC template to simplify the work of reviewing.

The deadline for submission of papers is May 31, 2023.

The Guest Editors

Richard Blute
Eugenia Cheng
Robin Cockett
Philip Scott
