/mo'nad/ A technique from
{category theory} which has been adopted as a way of dealing
with {state} in {functional programming languages} in such a
way that the details of the state are hidden or abstracted out
of code that merely passes it on unchanged.

A monad has three components: a means of augmenting an
existing type, a means of creating a default value of this new
type from a value of the original type, and a replacement for
the basic application operator for the old type that works
with the new type.

The alternative to passing state via a monad is to add an
extra argument and return value to many functions which have
no interest in that state. Monads can encapsulate state, side
effects, exception handling, global data, etc. in a purely
lazily functional way.

A monad can be expressed as the triple, (M, unitM, bindM)
where M is a function on types and (using {Haskell} notation):

unitM :: a -> M a
bindM :: M a -> (a -> M b) -> M b

I.e. unitM converts an ordinary value of type a in to monadic
form and bindM applies a function to a monadic value after
de-monadising it. E.g. a state transformer monad:

type S a = State -> (a, State)
unitS a = \ s0 -> (a, s0)
m `bindS` k = \ s0 -> let (a,s1) = m s0
in k a s1

Here unitS adds some initial state to an ordinary value and
bindS applies function k to a value m. (`fun` is Haskell
notation for using a function as an {infix} operator). Both m
and k take a state as input and return a new state as part of
their output. The construction

m `bindS` k

composes these two state transformers into one while also
passing the value of m to k.

Monads are a powerful tool in {functional programming}. If a
program is written using a monad to pass around a variable
(like the state in the example above) then it is easy to
change what is passed around simply by changing the monad.
Only the parts of the program which deal directly with the
quantity concerned need be altered, parts which merely pass it
on unchanged will stay the same.

In functional programming, unitM is often called initM or
returnM and bindM is called thenM. A third function, mapM is
frequently defined in terms of then and return. This applies
a given function to a list of monadic values, threading some
variable (e.g. state) through the applications:

mapM :: (a -> M b) -> [a] -> M [b]
mapM f [] = returnM []
mapM f (x:xs) = f x `thenM` ( \ x2 ->
mapM f xs `thenM` ( \ xs2 ->
returnM (x2 : xs2) ))

  • What is it that Leibniz calls a “Monad”?
    Monads capable of this are called "vernünftige Seelen" or "Geister" (intelligent souls or spirits, "animae") Now, there is a hierarchy of monads with regard to their apperceptions: From "schlummernden" (slumbering) up to the omniscient monad, the "monas monadum" (monad of monads) – God Somewhere in between are animal and spirit monads
  • What is a monad in a - Mathematics Stack Exchange
    Once you know this, then the usual definition of monad carries over straightforwardly at least in a strict 2-category In a weak 2-category (i e bicategory in the sense of Bénabou), because we need not have $(h \circ g) \circ f \stackrel{?}{=} h \circ (g \circ f)$ for 1-cells, one has to be a little bit more careful with the definition of
  • How do monads arise in mathematics? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
    It sounds like he actually introduced the notion of a comonad as opposed to a monad, and he used the term "standard construction" I'm completely guessing here since I don't have access to the article, but I suspect he was defining a comonad to organize the degeneracy and face maps of a simplicial complex or similar

    Any hints if this monad already appears in the literature and if it has a name are appreciated Algebras for the monad This raises of course the question how to describe the algebras for this monad One can mimic the proof for the usual monad structure, where the algebras are sup-lattices, and arrive at those partially ordered sets where
  • Understanding the Giry monad - Mathematics Stack Exchange
    So a monad on a category $\mathbf{C}$ is basically an endofunctor on $\mathbf{C}$ together with a family of mapts $\mu_X : TTX \rightarrow TX$ that are compatible in a certain way The actual definition is a little bit more complicated; for example, we also have a monoidal unit $\eta$
  • category theory - Adjunction between a comonad and a monad . . .
    Now a monad in a 2-category $\mathcal K$ is equivalently a monad in $\mathcal K^{\mathrm{op}}$ (a monoid in a monoidal category remains a monoid when the monoidal product is reversed) and a comonad in $\mathcal K^{\mathrm{co}}$ (a monoid in a monoidal category is a comonoid in the opposite monoidal category )
