Description:  The aim of my seminar is to present a brief introduction to basics in category theory and to quote some applications of it. Precisely my seminar is divided into four parts. Some lines of the history of category theory, a quoting of some applications in several branches of mathematics, a short but detailed recap of the notions of category, functor between categories, natural transformation between functors, equivalence of categories and adjunction between functors. The definition of monad in a category and why this notion is important in mathematics is also mentioned.
