The small object argument is a transfinite construction which, starting from a set of maps in a category, generates a weak factorisation system on that category. As useful as it is, the small object argument has some problematic aspects: it…

We generalize the small object argument in order to allow for its application to proper classes of maps (as opposed to sets of maps in Quillen's small object argument). The necessity of such a generalization arose with appearance of several…

We show that in a locally lambda-presentable category, every lambda(m)-injectivity class (i.e., the class of all the objects injective with respect to some class of lambda-presentable morphisms) is a weakly reflective subcategory determined…

The small object argument is a method for transfinitely constructing weak factorization systems originally motivated by homotopy theory. We establish a variant of the small object argument that is enriched over a cofibrantly generated weak…

Accessible categories admit a purely category-theoretic replacement for cardinality: the internal size. Generalizing results and methods from arXiv:1708.06782, we examine set-theoretic problems related to internal sizes and prove several…

Bourke and Garner described how to cofibrantly generate algebraic weak factorisation systems by a small double category of morphisms. However they did not give an explicit construction of the resulting factorisations as in the classical…

We prove, without set theoretic assumptions, that every locally presentable category C endowed with a tractable cofibrantly generated class of cofibrations has a unique minimal (or left induced) Quillen model structure. More generally, for…

We apply the theory of weighted bicategorical colimits to study the problem of existence and computation of such colimits of birepresentations of finitary bicategories. The main application of our results is the complete classification of…

Colimits are a powerful tool for the combination of objects in a category. In the context of modeling and specification, they are used in the institution-independent semantics (1) of instantiations of parameterised specifications (e.g. in…

The filter quotient construction is a particular instance of a filtered colimit of categories. It has primarily been considered in the context of categorical logic, where it has been used effectively to construct non-trivial models, for…

Sifted colimits (those that commute with finite products in sets) play a major role in categorical universal algebra. For example, varieties of (many-sorted) algebras are precisely the free cocompletions under sifted colimits of…

We characterise proper morphisms of $\infty$-topoi in terms of a relativised notion of compactness: we show that a geometric morphism of $\infty$-topoi is proper if and only if it commutes with colimits indexed by filtered internal…

If C and D are varieties of algebras in the sense of general algebra, then by a representable functor C --> D we understand a functor which, when composed with the forgetful functor D --> Set, gives a representable functor in the classical…

We provide a short and reasonably self-contained proof of Lurie's straightening equivalence, relating cartesian fibrations over a given $\infty$-category $S$ with contravariant functors from $S$ to the $\infty$-category of small…

We study the problem of existence and uniqueness of homotopy colimits in stable representation theory, where one typically does not have model category structures to guarantee that these homotopy colimits exist or have good properties. We…

We show that Quillen's small object argument works for exact categories under very mild conditions. This has immediate applications to cotorsion pairs and their relation to the existence of certain triangulated adjoint functors and model…

For a strongly connected category $\mathcal C$ with pair-wise coproducts, we introduce a cosimplicial object, which serves as a sort of resolution for computing higher derived functors of ${\sf lim} : \mathrm{Ab}^{\mathcal C}\to…

We provide an alternative proof of Lurie's result that the wide subcategory of the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-topoi spanned by the \'etale morphisms is closed under small colimits. Our proof is based on a new characterization of \'etale…
