We define and prove isomorphisms between three combinatorial classes involving labeled trees. We also give an alternative proof by means of generating functions.

In this thesis I lift the Curry--Howard--Lambek correspondence between the simply-typed lambda calculus and cartesian closed categories to the bicategorical setting, then use the resulting type theory to prove a coherence result for…

We show that the category of N-complexes has a Str\om model structure, meaning the weak equivalences are the chain homotopy equivalences. This generalizes the analogous result for the category of chain complexes (N = 2). The trivial objects…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a finitely bicomplete category and $\mathcal{W}$ a subcategory. We prove that the existence of a model structure on $\mathcal{C}$ with $\mathcal{W}$ as subcategory of weak equivalence is not first order expressible.…

This paper presents the structure conversion by which from an Ann-category $\A,$ we can obtain its reduced Ann-category of the type $(R,M)$ whose structure is a family of five functions $k=(\xi,\eta,\alpha,\lambda,\rho)$. Then we will show…

This thesis proposes a framework based on a notion of combinatorial cell complex (cc) whose cells are defined simply as finite sets of vertices. The cells of a cc are subject to four axioms involving a rank function that assigns a rank (or…

Let {\cal T} be a triangulated category, {\cal A} a full subcategory of {\cal T} and {\cal X} a functorially finite subcategory of {\cal A}. If {\cal A} has the properties that any {\cal X}-monomorphism of {\cal A} has a cone and any {\cal…

We consider homogeneous coupled cell networks with asymmetric inputs. We obtain general results concerning codimension-one steady-state bifurcations for networks with any number of cells and any number of asymmetric inputs. These results…

We introduce the notion of composition series of triangulated categories, which generalizes full exceptional sequences. The lengths of composition series yield invariants for triangulated categories. We study composition series of derived…

We address the fact that composition in an opetopic weak n-category is in general not unique and hence is not a well-defined operation. We define composition with a given k-cell in an n-category by a span of (n-k)-categories. We…

The relative cell complexes with respect to a generating set of cofibrations are an important class of morphisms in any model structure. In the particular case of the standard (algebraic) model structure on $\textbf{Top}$, we give a new…

When formalizing mathematics in (generalized predicative) constructive type theories, or more practically in proof assistants such as Coq or Agda, one is often using setoids (types with explicit equivalence relations). In this note we…

A braided monoidal category may be considered a $3$-category with one object and one $1$-morphism. In this paper, we show that, more generally, $3$-categories with one object and $1$-morphisms given by elements of a group $G$ correspond to…

In a bicategory of spans (an example of a 'generic bicategory') the factorization of a span (s,t) as the span (s,1) followed by (1,t) satisfies a simple universal property with respect to all factorizations in terms of the generic…

We introduce a new higher categorical structure called a weakly globular n-fold category. This structure is based on iterated internal categories and on the notion of weak globularity. We identify a suitable class of pseudo-functors whose…

The paper is devoted to a categorical study of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The study is based on an isomorphic description of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The isomorphic description was obtained in [3] and…

This paper investigates some issues arising in categorical models of reversible logic and computation. Our claim is that the structural (coherence) isomorphisms of these categorical models, although generally overlooked, have decidedly…

We present a conservative extension ICaTT of the dependent type theory CaTT for weak $\omega$-categories with a type witnessing coinductive invertibility of cells. This extension allows for a concise description of the "walking equivalence"…

If M is a model category and Z is an object of M, then there are model category structures on the category of objects of M over Z and the category of objects of M under Z under which a map is a cofibration, fibration, or weak equivalence if…

An alternative foundation for 2-categories is explored by studying graph-theoretically a partial operation on 2-cells named juncture, which can replace vertical and horizontal composition. Juncture is a generalized vertical composition of…
