Expansions of abelian categories are introduced. These are certain functors between abelian categories and provide a tool for induction/reduction arguments. Expansions arise naturally in the study of coherent sheaves on weighted projective…

In the efforts to define a 2-categorical analog of an abelian category, two (or three) notions of "abelian 2-categories" are defined. One is the relatively exact 2-category, and the other(s) is the (2-)abelian Gpd-category. We compare these…

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…

This is mostly an overview. Given finitely presentable abelian categories $A$ and $B$, we sketch the construction of an abelian category of continuous functors from $A$ to $B$ that has nice $2$-categorical behaviour and gives an explicit…

For an abelian category, a category equivalent to its derived category is constructed by means of specific projective (injective) multicomplexes, the so-called homological resolutions.

Semi-abelian and finitely cocomplete homological categories are characterized in terms of four resp. three simple axioms, in terms of the basic categorical notions introduced in the first few chapters of MacLane's classical book. As an…

We introduce $n$-abelian and $n$-exact categories, these are analogs of abelian and exact categories from the point of view of higher homological algebra. We show that $n$-cluster-tilting subcategories of abelian (resp. exact) categories…

Recently Dupont proved that the categories of discrete and codiscrete (or connected) objects in an abelian 2-category are equivalent abelian categories. He posses also a question whether any abelian category comes in this way. We will give…

We show that an abelian category can be exactly, fully faithfully embedded into a module category as the right perpendicular subcategory to a set of modules or module morphisms if and only if it is a locally presentable abelian category…

In this paper we study categorical properties of the category of abelian hypergroups that leads to the notion of hyper (almost) preadditive and hyper (almost) abelian categories. Our goal is to create a path towards a general theory of…

We show the equivalence of two kinds of strict multiple category, namely the well known globular omega-categories, and the cubical omega-categories with connections.

The purpose of this short and elementary note is to identify some classes of exact categories introduced in L. Previdi's thesis. Among other things we show: (1) An exact category is partially abelian exact if and only if it is abelian. (2)…

We call a finitely complete category algebraically coherent when the change-of-base functors of its fibration of points are coherent, which means that they preserve finite limits and jointly strongly epimorphic pairs of arrows. We give…

We study the notion of fundamental group in the framework of descent-exact homological categories. This setting is sufficiently wide to include several categories of "algebraic" nature such as the almost abelian categories, the semi-abelian…

Ideals are used to define homological functors for additive categories. In abelian categories the ideals corresponding to the usual universal objects are principal, and the construction reduces, in a choice dependent way, to homology…

The work is devoted to the extension groups in the category of functors from a small category to an additive category with an Abelian structure in the sense of Heller. It is constructed a spectral sequence which converges to the extension…

We review several known categorification procedures, and introduce a functorial categorification of group extensions with applications to non-abelian group cohomology. Categorification of acyclic models and of topological spaces are briefly…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a morphism between recollements of abelian categories to be an equivalence.

This Bachelor's thesis studies Adelman's construction of the universal abelian category of an additive category. It furthermore extends the construction such that it also applies to transformations between additive functors.

We define admissible and weakly admissible subcategories in exact categories and prove that the former induce semi-orthogonal decompositions on the derived categories. We develop the theory of thin exact categories, an exact-category…
