In this short note we show that under very mild conditions on a functor between exact categories $F:\mathcal{D}\rightarrow\mathcal{E}$ it is possible to derive $F$ at the level of unbounded complexes. We also give applications to deriving…
We define notions of direct and inverse limits in an $n$-category. We prove that the $n+1$-category $nCAT'$ of fibrant $n$-categories admits direct and inverse limits. At the end we speculate (without proofs) on some applications of the…
An approach to identify the normal subgroups determined by ideals in free group rings with the help of the derived functors of non-additive functors is explored. A similar approach, i.e., via derived functors, for computing limits of…
We investigate scalar restriction, scalar extension, and scalar coextension functors for graded modules, including their interplay with coarsening functors, graded tensor products, and graded Hom functors. This leads to several…
The integral over the U(N) unitary group $I=\int DU \exp\Tr A U B U^\dagger$ is reexamined. Various approaches and extensions are first reviewed. The second half of the paper deals with more recent developments: relation with integrable…
Let $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{E})$ be an exact category. We establish basic results that allow one to identify sub(bi)functors of $\operatorname{Ext}_{\mathcal{E}}(-,-)$ using additivity of numerical functions and restriction to subcategories.…
Lenses are an important tool in applied category theory. While individual lenses have been widely used in applications, many of the mathematical properties of the corresponding categories of lenses have remained unknown. In this paper, we…
This paper presents a description of the fourth dimension quotient, using the theory of limits of functors from the category of free presentations of a given group to the category of abelian groups. A functorial description of a quotient of…
It is well-known that biological phenomena are emergent. Emergent phenomena are quite interesting and amazing. However, they are difficult to be understood. Due to this difficulty, we propose a theory to describe emergence based on a…
A criterion for comonadicity of the extension-of- scalars functor associated to an extension of (not necessarily commutative) rings is given. As an application of this criterion, some known results on the comonadicity of such functors are…
We introduce the notion of a definable category--a category equivalent to a full subcategory of a locally finitely presentable category that is closed under products, directed colimits and pure subobjects. Definable subcategories are…
We consider a class of discrete convex functionals which satisfy a (generalized) coarea formula, and study their limit in the continuum.
In this paper we introduce a class of mathematical objects called \emph{extensors} and develop some aspects of their theory with considerable detail. We give special names to several particular but important cases of extensors. The…
We define the notion of a sheaf over a complex of groups. As an application, we give a criterion for the developability of a complex of groups. When the developability is witnessed by a morphism to $\mathrm{GL}(V)$ for some $V$, our…
We introduce basic notions in category theory to type theorists, including comprehension categories, categories with attributes, contextual categories, type categories, and categories with families along with additional discussions that are…
In this short note, we compute higher extension groups for all irreducible representations and deduce the multiplicity formula for finite length representations in triple product case.
In this paper we develop the theory of topological categories over a base category, that is, a theory of topological functors. Our notion of topological functor is similar to (but not the same) the existing notions in the literature (see…
We improve an existing result on exponential quadrilinear sums in the case of sums over multiplicative subgroups of a finite field and use it to give a new bound on exponential sums with quadrinomials.
Homotopy limits and colimits are homotopical replacements for the usual limits and colimits of category theory, which can be approached either using classical explicit constructions or the modern abstract machinery of derived functors. Our…
Lower bounds for some explicit decision problems over the complex numbers are given.
