We rewrite classical topological definitions using the category-theoretic notation of arrows and are led to concise reformulations in terms of simplicial categories and orthogonality of morphisms, which we hope might be of use in the…
We exhibit examples of triangulated categories which are neither the stable category of a Frobenius category nor a full triangulated subcategory of the homotopy category of a stable model category. Even more drastically, our examples do not…
We introduce a kind of converse of Pompeiu's theorem. Fix an equilateral triangle $\triangle A_0B_0C_0$, then for any triangle $\triangle ABC$ there is a unique point $P$ inside the circumcircle $\Gamma_0$ of $\triangle A_0B_0C_0$ such that…
We prove a Noether-Deuring theorem for the derived category of bounded complexes of modules over a Noetherian algebra.
We prove that every Grothendieck topology induces a hereditary torsion pair in the category of presheaves of modules on a ringed site, and obtain a homological characterization of sheaves of modules: a presheaf of modules is a sheaf of…
For a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we prove that the bounded homotopy category of projective $A$-modules and the bounded derived category of $A$-modules are dual to each other via certain categories of locally-finite cohomological…
Derived categories were invented by Grothendieck and Verdier around 1960, not very long after the "old" homological algebra (of derived functors between abelian categories) was established. This "new" homological algebra, of derived…
This paper studies abelian categories that can be decomposed into smaller abelian categories via iterated recollements - such a decomposition we call a stratification. Examples include the categories of (equivariant) perverse sheaves and…
Neeman shows that the completion of a triangulated category with respect to a good metric yields a triangulated category. We compute completions of discrete cluster categories with respect to metrics induced by internal t-structures. In…
A key result in a 2004 paper by S. Arkhipov, R. Bezrukavnikov, and V. Ginzburg compares the bounded derived category of modules for the principal block of a Lusztig quantum enveloping algebra at anroot of unity with an explicit subcategory…
Presentations of categories are a well-known algebraic tool to provide descriptions of categories by means of generators, for objects and morphisms, and relations on morphisms. We generalize here this notion, in order to consider situations…
Let $A$ be an artin algebra. We show that the bounded homotopy category of finitely generated right $A$-modules has Auslander-Reiten triangles. Two applications are given: (1) we provide an alternative proof of a theorem of Happel in [H2];…
We define a natural 2-categorical structure on the base category of a large class of Grothendieck fibrations. Given any model category $\mathbf{C}$, we apply this construction to a fibration whose fibers are the homotopy categories of the…
Higher Homotopy van Kampen Theorems allow the computation as colimits of certain homotopical invariants of glued spaces. One corollary is to describe homotopical excision in critical dimensions in terms of induced modules and crossed…
In the paper "Deformation theory of abelian categories", the last two authors proved that an abelian category with enough injectives can be reconstructed as the category of finitely presented modules over the category of its injective…
The purpose of this short and elementary note is to identify some classes of exact categories introduced in L. Previdi's thesis. Among other things we show: (1) An exact category is partially abelian exact if and only if it is abelian. (2)…
We study $N$-differential graded ($NDG$) categories and their the derived categories. First, we introduce $N$-differential modules over an $NDG$ category $\mathcal{A}$. Then we show that the category $\mathsf{C}_{Ndg}(\mathcal{A})$ of…
Any $\Gamma$-graded categorical group is determined by a factor set of a categorical group. This paper studies the factor set of the group $\Gamma$ with coefficients in the categorical group of the type $(\Pi,A).$ Then, an interpretation of…
We propose the notion of quasi-abelian third cohomology of crossed modules, generalizing Eilenberg and MacLane's abelian cohomology and Ospel's quasi-abelian cohomology, and classify crossed pointed categories in terms of it. We apply the…
The notion of gluing of abelian categories was introduced by Kazhdan and Laumon in an attempt of another geometric construction of representations of finite Chevalley groups; the approach was later developed by Polishchuk and Braverman. We…
