单词 functor
释义

functorn.

Brit. /ˈfʌŋ(k)tə/, U.S. /ˈfəŋ(k)tər/
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: function n., -or suffix.
Etymology: < funct- (in function n.) + -or suffix.In sense 1 after German Funktor (1934 in the passage translated in quot. 1937).
1. Logic. Originally: a symbol used to express a given relationship between numerical values. In later use more generally: a symbol which can be applied to a predicate to yield another predicate; more fully predicate functor.

1937 A. Smeaton tr. R. Carnap Logical Syntax Lang. §3. p. 14 In order to express properties or relations of position by means of numbers, we shall use functors [Ger. Funktoren].
1951 J. Łukasiewicz Aristotle's Syllogistic iv. 78 The principle of my notation is to write the functors before the arguments. In this way I can avoid brackets.
1971 W. V. Quine in J. E. Fenstad Proc. 2nd Scandinavian Logic Symposium (Stud. Logic & Foundations Math. vol. 63) 311 There are six functors on predicates, and one constant two-place predicate.
1981 Jrnl. Symbolic Logic 46 649 Quantification theory..can be formulated in terms purely of predicate letters and a few predicate functors.
2009 Philos. Q. 59 269 I use the functors defined in Quine's original paper.
2. Mathematics. A mapping from one category (category n. Additions 3) to another which assigns to each object and morphism in the first category an object and morphism in the second, subject to certain conditions.Functors are typically classified as either covariant or contravariant. The criteria for a mapping F between two categories to be a covariant functor are that: if f: XY is a morphism in the first category, then F( f ) is a morphism from F( X ) to F( Y ); the identity morphism of the first category is mapped to that of the second; and the mapping preserves composition of morphisms. Using the same notation as above, the criteria for a mapping to be a contravariant functor is almost identical, the only differences being that F ( f ) is a morphism from F( Y ) to F ( X ), and the order of composition of morphisms is reversed—e.g. if ∘ represents the operation of composition, then F( fg) = F( g )∘F( f ).Unless otherwise specified, ‘functor’ used without a distinguishing word typically refers to a covariant functor.

1942 S. MacLane & S. Eilenberg in Proc. National Acad. Sci. U.S.A 28 538 The functions..jointly form what we shall call a ‘functor’, in this case, a ‘contravariant’ one.
1961 Mathematische Annalen 144 364 The following five formulas are valid for any covariant functors.
1975 Econometrica 43 432 A contravariant functor..is constructed as follows.
2014 D. I. Spivak Category Theory for Sci. v. 285 To describe a functor, we need to say what it does on objects..and what it does on morphisms.
3. Linguistics. A word or affix whose primary purpose is to contribute to the syntax rather than the meaning of a sentence; = function word n. at function n. Compounds.

1958 C. F. Hockett Course in Mod. Linguistics xxxi. 264 There are at least three types of grammatical forms which are to be classed as functors.
1965 Listener 17 June 903/2 In themselves prepositions (which may be described as structure-words or functors) have no lexical meanings.
1995 Appl. Linguistics 16 197 Examples of children's neologisms which are the result of fusion, including the lexicalization of syntactic strings where grammatical functors have been removed (a down-to-the-floor dress→a down-floor dress).
2008 Mod. Lang. Jrnl. 92 238/1 Third-person present -s and possessive -s are the last acquired functors in the morpheme order studies.
