Classification is an important goal in many branches of mathematics. The idea is to describe the members of some class of mathematical objects, up to isomorphism or other important equivalence in terms of relatively simple invariants. Where…
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 generalize the construction of tensor categories of endomorphisms of a type III factor $M$ associated with a $G$-kernel, from the case of a discrete group $G$ to that of a compact second countable group. Our approach is based on the…
This article presents a novel approach to construct a model category structure designed to model the homotopy theory of spaces equipped with an action by the group $C_2$, where morphisms are considered to be isovariant. Our methodology…
B-systems are algebras (models) of an essentially algebraic theory that is expected to be constructively equivalent to the essentially algebraic theory of C-systems which is, in turn, constructively equivalent to the theory of contextual…
Fong developed `decorated cospans' to model various kinds of open systems: that is, systems with inputs and outputs. In this framework, open systems are seen as the morphisms of a category and can be composed as such, allowing larger open…
We study a number of categorical quasi-uniform structures induced by functors. We depart from a category $\mathcal{C}$ with a proper $(\mathcal{E}, \mathcal{M})$-factorization system, then define the continuity of a $\mathcal{C}$-morphism…
Our starting point is a particular `canvas' aimed to `draw' theories of physics, which has symmetric monoidal categories as its mathematical backbone. In this paper we consider the conceptual foundations for this canvas, and how these can…
The question "What is category theory" is approached by focusing on universal mapping properties and adjoint functors. Category theory organizes mathematics using morphisms that transmit structure and determination. Structures of…
We define and develop the infrastructure of homotopical inverse diagrams in categories with attributes. Specifically, given a category with attributes $C$ and an ordered homotopical inverse category $I$, we construct the category with…
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).…
This paper gives a uniform-theoretic refinement of classical homotopy theory. Both cubical sets (with connections) and uniform spaces admit classes of weak equivalences, special cases of classical weak equivalences, appropriate for the…
A spin system is a sequence of self-adjoint unitary operators $U_1,U_2,...$ acting on a Hilbert space $H$ which either commute or anticommute, $U_iU_j=\pm U_jU_i$ for all $i,j$; it is is called irreducible when $\{U_1,U_2,...\}$ is an…
In this paper we investigate the construction of bicategories of fractions originally described by D. Pronk: given any bicategory $\mathcal{C}$ together with a suitable class of morphisms $\mathbf{W}$, one can construct a bicategory…
In this paper we study a 2-dimensional version of Quillen's homotopy category construction. Given a category $\mathscr{A}$ and a class of morphisms $\Sigma \subset \mathscr{A}$ containing the identities, we construct a 2-category…
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a resolving and contravariantly finite subcategory of $\rm{mod}\mbox{-}\Lambda$, the category of finitely generated right $\Lambda$-modules. We associate to $\mathcal{X}$ the subcategory…
We define a higher-order generalisation of the CPM construction based on arbitrary finite abelian group symmetries of symmetric monoidal categories. We show that our new construction is functorial, and that its closure under iteration can…
Category theory provides a collective description of many arrangements in mathematics, such as topological spaces, Banach spaces and game theory. Within this collective description, the perspective from any individual member of the…
We point out that double categories provide a natural setting for modular functors obtained by a (bicategorical) string-net construction: The source of the modular functor -- which is now a double functor -- is a symmetric monoidal double…
Consider a cofibrantly generated model category $S$, a small category $C$ and a subcategory $D$ of $C$. We endow the category $S^C$ of functors from $C$ to $S$ with a model structure, defining weak equivalences and fibrations objectwise but…
