To any left system of diagram categories or to any left pointed derivateur (in the sense of Grothendieck) a K-theory space is associated. This K-theory space is shown to be canonically an infinite loop space and to have a lot of common…
We generalize a recent result of Clausen: For a number field with integers O, we compute the K-theory of locally compact O-modules. For the rational integers this recovers Clausen's result as a special case. Our method of proof is quite…
We construct Nakayama functors on proper abelian subcategories of triangulated categories with a Serre functor using approximation theory. This, in turn, allows for the construction of Auslander-Reiten translates. As a result, we prove that…
A theorem due to Kazhdan and Ziegler implies that, by substituting linear forms for its variables, a homogeneous polynomial of sufficiently high strength specialises to any given polynomial of the same degree in a bounded number of…
We show that the category of $n$-excisive functors from the $\infty$-category of spectra to a target stable $\infty$-category $\mathbf{E}$ is equivalent to the category of $\mathbf{E}$-valued Mackey functors on an indexing category built…
We construct a geometric realization of categories of representations of affine Hecke algebras and split reductive $p$-adic groups via a $K$-motivic Springer theory. We suggest a connection to the coherent Springer theory of Ben-Zvi, Chen,…
The purpose of this note is to consider in detail the construction of derived functors. The classical construction, such as in Cartan-Eilenberg or Grothendieck, is clarified, and it is shown, at the same time, that everything can be…
We introduce the Frobenius-Perron dimension of an endofunctor of a k-linear category and provide some applications.
We exhibit a canonical equivalence between the hermitian $K$-theory (alias Grothendieck-Witt) spectrum of an exact form category and that of its derived Poincar\'e $\infty$-category, with no assumptions on the invertibility of $2$. Along…
K-theoretic Donaldson invariants are holomorphic Euler characteristics of determinant line bundles on moduli spaces of rank 2 sheaves on surfaces. We develop an algorithm which determines the generating functions of K-theoretic Donaldson…
In previous papers we investigated basic properties of the determinant $G_{K}(s)$ of the Riemann operator: ${\mathcal R}$ acting on $\bigoplus_{n>1} K_{n}(A)_{\mathbb{C}}$, where $A$ is the integer ring of an algebraic number field $K$. The…
The categorical formulation of the Eilenberg-Watts calculus relates, for any pair of finite categories M and N, the finite categories Fun^{le}(N,M) and Fun^{re}(N,M) of linear left or right exact functors and the Deligne product \bar N…
We study universal quadratic forms over totally real number fields using Dedekind zeta functions. In particular, we prove an explicit upper bound for the rank of universal quadratic forms over a given number field $K$, under the assumption…
The aim of this paper is to offer an algebraic construction of infinite-dimensional Grassmannians and determinant bundles (and therefore valid for arbitrary base fields). As an application we construct the $\tau$-function and formal…
We show that differential calculus (in its usual form, or in the general form of topological differential calculus) can be fully imdedded into a functor category (functors from a small category of anchord tangent algebras to anchored sets).…
In his thesis B. Keller solved the universal problem of the extension of an exact category to its (bounded) derived category by introducing the notions of tower of exact and triangulated categories and proving the universal property in this…
We develop some aspects of the theory of derivators, pointed derivators, and stable derivators. As a main result, we show that the values of a stable derivator can be canonically endowed with the structure of a triangulated category.…
We define a theory of Goodwillie calculus for enriched functors from finite pointed simplicial G-sets to symmetric G-spectra, where G is a finite group. We extend a notion of G-linearity suggested by Blumberg to define stably excisive and…
We study criteria for a ring - or more generally, for a small category - to be Gorenstein and for a module over it to be of finite projective dimension. The goal is to unify the universal coefficient theorems found in the literature and to…
We give a natural notion of (non-exact) integral functor in the context of k-linear and graded categories. In this broader sense, we prove that every k-linear and graded functor is integral.
