We extend to semi-abelian categories the notion of characteristic subobject, which is widely used in group theory and in the theory of Lie algebras. Moreover, we show that many of the classical properties of characteristic subgroups of a…

A closed symmetric differential of the 1st kind is a differential that locally is the product of closed holomorphic 1-forms. We show that closed symmetric 2-differentials of the 1st kind on a projective manifold $X$ come from maps of $X$ to…

We characterize projective objects in the category of internal crossed modules within any semi-abelian category. When this category forms a variety of algebras, the internal crossed modules again constitute a semi-abelian variety, ensuring…

Differential categories provide the categorical foundations for the algebraic approaches to differentiation. They have been successful in formalizing various important concepts related to differentiation, such as, in particular,…

In 2008, the author proposed a version of duality theory for (not necessarily, Abelian) complex Lie groups, based on the idea of using the Arens-Michael envelope of topological algebra and having an advantage over existing theories in that…

Herschend-Liu-Nakaoka introduced the notion of $n$-exangulated categories. It is not only a higher dimensional analogue of extriangulated categories defined by Nakaoka-Palu, but also gives a simultaneous generalization of $n$-exact…

In \cite{GT}, Gentle and Todorov proved that in an abelian category with enough projective objects, the extension subcategory of two covariantly finite subcategories is still covariantly finite. We give an counterexample to show that…

We consider the equivalence between the two main categorical models for the type-theoretical operation of context comprehension, namely P. Dybjer's categories with families and B. Jacobs' comprehension categories, and generalise it to the…

This paper is concerned with developing a 2-dimensional analogue of the notion of an ordinary discrete fibration. A definition is proposed, and it is shown that such discrete 2-fibrations correspond via a 2-equivalence to certain…

There are well known identities that involve the Ext bifunctor, coproducts, and products in Ab4 and Ab4* abelian categories with enough projectives and enough injectives. Namely, for every such category $\mathcal{A}$, the isomorphisms…

We classify the thick subcategories of discrete derived categories. To do this we introduce certain generating sets called arc-collections which correspond to configurations of non-crossing arcs on a geometric model. We show that every…

We provide several equivalent descriptions of a highest weight category using recollements of abelian categories. Also, we explain the connection between sequences of standard and exceptional objects.

We introduce and study several homological notions which generalise the discrete derived categories of D. Vossieck. As an application, we show that Vossieck discrete algebras have this property with respect to all bounded t-structures. We…

This is a short note bridging the gap between two notions of universal abelian categories associated to exact categories, namely, Rump's quotient categories and Bodzenta-Bondal's abelian envelopes. The established connection allows us to…

We define the notion of duality categories as generalization of duality groups. Two examples are treated. The first is the Serre duality in the categories of strict polynomial functors. The second concerns finite complexes. We show in…

Let $k$ be a field. In this short note we give an example of a $2$-abelian $k$-category, realized as a $2$-cluster-tilting subcategory of the category $\operatorname{mod}\,A$ of finite dimensional (right) $A$-modules over a finite…

Objects dual to graded algebras are subproduct systems of linear spaces, a purely algebraic counterpart of a notion introduced recently in the context of noncommutative dynamics (Shalit and Solel, Bhat and Mukherjee). A complete…

In this paper, we study the relationship of Gorenstein projective objects among three Abelian categories in a recollement. As an application, we introduce the relation of $n$-Gorenstein tilting modules (and Gorenstein syzygy modules) in…

We develop bicategory theory in univalent foundations. Guided by the notion of univalence for (1-)categories studied by Ahrens, Kapulkin, and Shulman, we define and study univalent bicategories. To construct examples of univalent…

In this paper we define operations of preradicals of any abelian category. We define idempotent preradicals and radicals. We prove that every adjoint pair between abelian categories induces a Galois connection between the corresponding…
