Two pertinent questions for any support theory of a monoidal triangulated category are whether it is functorial and if the tensor product property holds. To this end, we consider the complete prime spectrum of an essentially small monoidal…
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…
We set up a fibred categorical theory of obstruction and classification of morphisms that specializes to the one of monoidal functors between categorical groups and also to the Schreier-Mac Lane theory of group extensions. Further…
We introduce a category of inverse semigroup actions and a category of \'etale groupoids. We show that there are three functors which send inverse semigroups to their spectral actions, inverse semigroup actions to their transformation…
We discuss ways that the ring of coefficients for a TQFT can be reduced if one restricts somewhat the allowed cobordisms. When we apply these methods to a TQFT associated to SO(3) at an odd prime p, we obtain a functor from a somewhat…
Suppose that G is a finite, unitary reflection group acting on a complex vector space V and X is the fixed point subspace of an element of G. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in G, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then…
We consider the homotopy category of complexes of projective modules over a Noetherian ring. Truncation at degree zero induces a fully faithful triangle functor from the totally acyclic complexes to the stable derived category. We show that…
Let $R\subset F$ be an extension of real closed fields and ${\mathcal S}(M,R)$ the ring of (continuous) semialgebraic functions on a semialgebraic set $M\subset R^n$. We prove that every $R$-homomorphism $\varphi:{\mathcal S}(M,R)\to F$ is…
We construct a new spectrum of units for a commutative symmetric ring spectrum that detects the difference between a periodic ring spectrum and its connective cover. It is augmented over the sphere spectrum. The homotopy cofiber of its…
For a category $\mathcal{C}$ with finite limits and a class $\mathcal{S}$ of monomorphisms in $\mathcal{C}$ that is pullback stable, contains all isomorphisms, is closed under composition, and has the strong left cancellation property, we…
We study properties of the quantale spectrum Max A of an arbitrary unital C*-algebra A. In particular we show that the spatialization of Max A with respect to one of the notions of spatiality in the literature yields the locale of closed…
For any block of a finite group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$ which has dihedral, semidihedral, or generalized quaternion defect groups, we determine explicitly the decomposition of the associated diagonal…
It is a deep fact that the homotopy classification of topological manifolds is convariantly functorial. In other words, a map from a topological manifold M to another N naturally induces a map from the structure set S(M) to S(N). We extend…
The authors develop a notion of homological prime spectrum for an arbitrary monoidal triangulated category, ${\mathbf C}$. Unlike the symmetric case due to Balmer, the homological primes of ${\mathbf C}$ are not defined as the maximal Serre…
There is a free construction from multicategories to permutative categories, left adjoint to the endomorphism multicategory construction. The main result shows that these functors induce an equivalence of homotopy theories. This result…
A category is described to which the Cuntz semigroup belongs and as a functor into which it preserves inductive limits.
Semi-free ideal rings, or semifirs, were introduced by Paul M. Cohn to study universal localizations in the non-commutative setting. We provide new examples of semifirs consisting of analytic functions in several non-commuting variables.…
We present an elementary construction of the non-connective algebraic K-theory spectrum associated to an additive category following the contracted functor approach due to Bass. It comes with a universal property that easily allows us to…
We study several structure aspects of functor categories from a small additive category to a module category, in particular the category F(A,K) of functors from finitely generated free modules over a commutative ring A to vector spaces over…
We develop a functorial theory of spinor and oscillator representations parallel to the theory of Schur functors for general linear groups. This continues our work on developing orthogonal and symplectic analogues of Schur functors. As…
