In this paper we present the notion of ``Deligne localized functors'', an avatar of the derived functors, whose definition is inspired by Deligne in [SGA 4,XVII]. Their definition involves the notions of Ind and Pro categories, they always…

The derived category $D[C,V]$ of the Grothendieck category of enriched functors $[C,V]$, where $V$ is a closed symmetric monoidal Grothendieck category and $C$ is a small $V$-category, is studied. We prove that if the derived category…

The quotient of a triangulated category modulo a subcategory was defined by Verdier. Motivated by the failure of the telescope conjecture, we introduce a new type of quotients for any triangulated category which generalizes Verdier's…

Cluster algebras were introduced by Fomin-Zelevinsky in 2002 in order to give a combinatorial framework for phenomena occurring in the context of algebraic groups. Cluster algebras also have links to a wide range of other subjects,…

We give a construction of triangulated categories as quotients of exact categories where the subclass of objects sent to zero is defined by a triple of functors. This includes the cases of homotopy and stable module categories. These…

Let $k$ be a regular ring, and let $A,B$ be essentially finite type $k$-algebras. For any functor $F:{D}(A)\times\dots\times{D}(A)\to{D}(B)$ between their derived categories, we define its twist…

An adjoint pair of contravariant functors between abelian categories can be extended to the adjoint pair of their derived functors in the associated derived categories. We describe the reflexive complexes and interpret the achieved results…

We introduce and develop the notion of *displayed categories*. A displayed category over a category C is equivalent to "a category D and functor F : D --> C", but instead of having a single collection of "objects of D" with a map to the…

We obtain some fundamental results, as Bokstedt-Neeman Theorem and Grothendieck duality, about the derived category of modules on a finite ringed space. Then we see how these results are transfered to schemes in a simple way and generalized…

Exact categories are a natural generalisation of abelian categories and provide a fertile ground to develop relative homological algebra. In this paper, starting from a class of relative Gorenstein projective objects in an exact category…

Differential categories were introduced to provide a minimal categorical doctrine for differential linear logic. Here we revisit the formalism and, in particular, examine the two different approaches to defining differentiation which were…

Recollements were introduced originally by Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne to study the derived categories of perverse sheaves, and nowadays become very powerful in understanding relationship among three algebraic, geometric or topological…

We define the derived category of a concrete category in a way which extends the usual definition of the derived category of a ring, and we prove that the bounded-below derived category of $\Spec \mathbb{M}_0$ (an approximation, used by…

Cluster categories of hereditary algebras have been introduced as orbit categories of their derived categories. Keller has pointed out that for non-hereditary algebras orbit categories need not be triangulated, and he introduced the notion…

A relative derived category for the category of modules over a presheaf of algebras is constructed to identify the relative Yoneda and Hochschild cohomologies with its homomorphism groups. The properties of a functor between this category…

Starting with a k-linear or DG category admitting a (homotopy) Serre functor, we construct a k-linear or DG 2-category categorifying the Heisenberg algebra of the numerical K-group of the original category. We also define a 2-categorical…

In these notes, an introduction to derived categories and derived functors is given. The main focus is the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety.

Originally a technical tool, the derived category of coherent sheaves over an algebraic variety has become over the last twenty years an important invariant in the birational study of algebraic varieties. Problems of birational invariance…

Differential categories axiomatize the basics of differentiation and provide categorical models of differential linear logic. A differential category is said to have antiderivatives if a natural transformation $\mathsf{K}$, which all…
