We describe the geometrical ladder of equations for Abelian bundles and gerbes, as well as higher generalisations, in terms of the cohomology of an operator that combines de Rham and Cech cohomology.

In previous papers, the Galois module structure of minus class groups was studied for abelian CM extensions. In this paper, we discuss some nonabelian cases, focusing on metacyclic extensions. For a certain class of these, we obtain a…

In this note we show that the theory of non abelian extensions of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ by a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ can be understood in terms of a differential graded Lie algebra $L$. More precisely we show that the non-abelian…

In 1999 Labesse introduced quasi-connected reductive groups and investigated their abelian Galois cohomology over local and global fields of characteristic 0. We (1) generalize some of the constructions of Labesse from quasi-connected…

For a class of pointed Hopf algebras including the quantized enveloping algebras, we discuss cleft extensions, cocycle deformations and the second cohomology. We present such a non-standard method of computing the abelian second cohomology…

In this paper we study universal central extensions and non-abelian tensor product of hom-Lie-Rinehart algebras. We discuss about universal $\alpha$- central extensions, and, lifting of automorphisms and $\alpha$-derivations to central…

In the context of internal crossed modules over a fixed base object in a given semi-abelian category, we use the non-abelian tensor product in order to prove that an object is perfect (in an appropriate sense) if and only if it admits a…

Galois comodules of a coring are studied. The conditions for a simple comodule to be a Galois comodule are found. A special class of Galois comodules termed principal comodules is introduced. These are defined as Galois comodules that are…

By extending some classical results known for groups and skew braces, we define and investigate central series of cocommutative Hopf braces. Both left and right central series are defined using a $\star$-product that measures the difference…

We develop a cohomological approach to M\"obius inversion using derived functors in the enriched categorical setting. For a poset $P$ and a closed symmetric monoidal abelian category $\mathcal{C}$, we define M\"obius cohomology as the…

A recent result of ours [GM] shows that all Hopf algebra liftings of a given diagram in the sense of Andruskiewitsch and Schneider are cocycle deformations of each other. Here we develop a "non-abelian" cohomology theory, which gives a…

Semi-abelian and finitely cocomplete homological categories are characterized in terms of four resp. three simple axioms, in terms of the basic categorical notions introduced in the first few chapters of MacLane's classical book. As an…

By providing a suitable generalization of Newman's bijective correspondence known for cocommutative Hopf algebras, we prove that the category of cocommutative Hopf monoids in any abelian symmetric monoidal category is semi-abelian, once…

Let $B$ be the split extension of a finite dimensional algebra $C$ by a $C$-$C$-bimodule $E$. We define a morphism of associative graded algebras $\varphi^*:\HH^*(B)\rightarrow \HH^*(C)$ from the Hochschild cohomology of $B$ to that of $C$,…

This is a further investigation of our approach to group actions in homological algebra in the settings of homology of {\Gamma}-simplicial groups, particularly of {\Gamma}-equivariant homology and cohomology of {\Gamma}-groups. This…

The aim of this paper is to study the $(\alpha, \gamma)$-prolongation of central extensions. We obtain the obstruction theory for $(\alpha, \gamma)$-prolongations and classify $(\alpha, \gamma)$-prolongations thanks to low-dimensional…

Let $A$ be a unital associative algebra over a field $k$. All unital associative algebras containing $A$ as a subalgebra of a given codimension $\mathfrak{c}$ are described and classified. For a fixed vector space $V$ of dimension…

The arising of central extensions is discussed in two contexts. At first classical counterparts of quantum anomalies (deserving being named as "classical anomalies") are associated with a peculiar subclass of the non-equivariant maps.…

We introduce semiframes (an algebraic structure) and investigate their duality with semitopologies (a topological one). Both semitopologies and semiframes are relatively recent developments, arising from a novel application of topological…

This article is the second part of a series of three articles, in which we develop a higher covering theory of racks and quandles. This project is rooted in M. Eisermann's work on quandle coverings, and the categorical perspective brought…
