Any refinement system (= functor) has a fully faithful representation in the refinement system of presheaves, by interpreting types as relative slice categories, and refinement types as presheaves over those categories. Motivated by an…

A representation embedding between cartesian theories can be defined to be a functor between respective categories of models that preserves finitely-generated projective models and that preserves and reflects certain epimorphisms. This…

We define proper, free and commuting partial actions on upper semicontinuous bundles of $C^*-$algebras. With such, we construct the $C^*-$algebra induced by a partial action and a partial actions on that algebra. Using those action we give…

In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…

Algebraic Combinatorics originated in Algebra and Representation Theory, studying their discrete objects and integral quantities via combinatorial methods which have since developed independent and self-contained lives and brought us some…

A bicommutant category is a higher categorical analog of a von Neumann algebra. We study the bicommutant categories which arise as the commutant $\mathcal{C}'$ of a fully faithful representation $\mathcal{C}\to\operatorname{Bim}(R)$ of a…

Let (G,P) be a quasi-lattice ordered group and let X be a compactly aligned product system over P of Hilbert bimodules. Under mild hypotheses we associate to X a C*-algebra which we call the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner algebra of X. Our construction…

We describe representations of groupoid C*-algebras on Hilbert modules over arbitrary C*-algebras by a universal property. For Hilbert space representations, our universal property is equivalent to Renault's Integration-Disintegration…

This is a sequel to our paper on nonlinear completely positive maps and dilation theory for real involutive algebras, where we have reduced all representation classification problems to the passage from a $C^*$-algebra ${\mathcal A}$ to its…

We consider the functor C that to a unital C*-algebra A assigns the partial order set C(A) of its commutative C*-subalgebras ordered by inclusion. We investigate how some C*-algebraic properties translate under the action of C to…

We derive consequences from the existence of a term which satisfies Mal'cev identities (characterizing permutability) modulo two functions F and G from admissible relations to admissible relations. We also provide characterizations of…

Our main theorems provide a single geometric setting in which polynomial representatives for Schubert classes in the integral cohomology ring of the flag manifold are determined uniquely, and have positive coefficients for geometric…

Let $A$ be a commutative algebra in a braided monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$; e.g., $A$ could be an extension of a vertex operator algebra (VOA) $V$ in a category $\mathcal{C}$ of $V$-modules. We study when the category $\mathcal{C}_A$ of…

For a simply-connected simple algebraic group $G$ over $\C$, we exhibit a subvariety of its affine Grassmannian that is closely related to the nilpotent cone of $G$, generalizing a well-known fact about $GL_n$. Using this variety, we…

It is shown that for a normal subgroup $N$ of a group $G$, $G/N$ cyclic, the kernel of the map $N^{\mathrm{ab}}\to G^{\mathrm{ab}}$ satisfies the classical Hilbert 90 property (cf. Thm. A). As a consequence, if $G$ is finitely generated,…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, F its algebraically closed extension, and G be the group of k-automorphisms of F endowed with a natural topology. One of the purposes of this paper is to show that any…

In all forms of the local Langlands program the abelian category of smooth representations of p-adic groups G in vector spaces over a field k plays a central role. Of particular interest are its finiteness properties. If the field k has…

We study the behavior of representation varieties of quivers with relations under the operation of node splitting. We show how splitting a node gives a correspondence between certain closed subvarieties of representation varieties for…

We consider the problem of representing in Hilbert space commutation relations of the form $$ a_ia_j^*=\delta_{ij}{\bold1} + \sum_{k\ell}T_{ij}^{k\ell} a_\ell^*a_k \quad,$$ where the $T_{ij}^{k\ell}$ are essentially arbitrary scalar…

We introduce a family of tableaux that simultaneously generalizes the tableaux used to characterize Grothendieck polynomials and k-Schur functions. We prove that the polynomials drawn from these tableaux are the affine Grothendieck…
