- Category theory
- categories
- functors
- morphisms
- objects
- natural transformations
- Geometry
- points, lines, line segments
- polygons (triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, …), circles, ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas
- polyhedra (tetrahedrons, cubes, octahedrons, dodecahedrons, icosahedrons), spheres, ellipsoids, paraboloids, hyperboloids, cylinders, cones
- Graph theory
- graphs, trees, nodes, edges
- Topology

- Categories are simultaneously homes to mathematical objects and mathematical objects in their own right. In proof theory, proofs and theorems are also mathematical objects.
