Without the axiom of choice, the free exact completion of the category of sets (i.e. the category of setoids) may not be complete or cocomplete. We will show that nevertheless, it can be enhanced to a derivator: the formal structure of…

We construct a "diagonal" cofibrantly generated model structre on the category of simplicial objects in the category of topological categories sCat_{Top}, which is the category of diagrams [\Delta^{op}, Cat_{Top}]. Moreover, we prove that…

We introduce Displayed Type Theory (dTT), a multi-modal homotopy type theory with discrete and simplicial modes. In the intended semantics, the discrete mode is interpreted by a model for an arbitrary $\infty$-topos, while the simplicial…

A theory of higher colimits over categories of free presentations is developed. It is shown that different homology functors such as Hoshcshild and cyclic homology of algebras over a field of characteristic zero, simplicial derived…

An important example of a model category is the category of unbounded chain complexes of R-modules, which has as its homotopy category the derived category of the ring R. This example shows that traditional homological algebra is…

We prove a class of equivalences of additive functor categories that are relevant to enumerative combinatorics, representation theory, and homotopy theory. Let $\mathscr{X}$ denote an additive category with finite direct sums and split…

Given an additive category $\mathcal{C}$ and an integer $n\geqslant 2$. We form a new additive category $\mathcal{C}[\epsilon]^n$ consisting of objects $X$ in $\mathcal{C}$ equipped with an endomorphism $\epsilon_X$ satisfying…

Let $R$ be a ring and Ch($R$) the category of chain complexes of $R$-modules. We put an abelian model structure on Ch($R$) whose homotopy category is equivalent to $K(Proj)$, the homotopy category of all complexes of projectives. However,…

We study the homotopy category $\mathsf{K}_{N}(\mathcal{B})$ of $N$-complexes of an additive category $\mathcal{B}$ and the derived category $\mathsf{D}_{N}(\mathcal{A})$ of an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$. First we show that both…

The use of homological and homotopical devices, such as Tor and Andr\'e-Quillen homology, have found substantial use in characterizing commutative algebras. The primary category setting has been differentially graded algebras and modules,…

We establish a unified group-theoretic framework bridging the arithmetic homotopy exact sequence of a variety and the Birman exact sequence of a surface. Within this framework, we reinterpret classical arithmetic notions - such as the…

We classify compactly generated co-t-structures on the derived category of a commutative noetherian ring. In order to accomplish that, we develop a theory for compactly generated Hom-orthogonal pairs (also known as torsion pairs in the…

This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…

The basic data for a skew-monoidal category are the same as for a monoidal category, except that the constraint morphisms are no longer required to be invertible. The constraints are given a specific orientation and satisfy Mac Lane's five…

We show that conically smooth stratified spaces embed fully faithfully into $\infty$-categories. This articulates a stratified generalization of the homotopy hypothesis proposed by Grothendieck. As such, each $\infty$-category defines a…

We define a topological Hochschild (THH) and cyclic (TC) homology theory for differential graded (dg) categories and construct several non-trivial natural transformations from algebraic K-theory to THH(-). In an intermediate step, we prove…

Simplicial type theory extends homotopy type theory and equips types with a notion of directed morphisms. A Segal type is defined to be a type in which these directed morphisms can be composed. We show that all higher coherences can be…
