The present paper gives a generalization of cartesian closed categories, called cartesian closed categories with dependence, whose strict version induces categories with families that support 1-, Sigma- and Pi-types in the strict sense.…

We show that for any uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, the category of sets of cardinality at least $\lambda$ and monomorphisms between them cannot appear as the category of point of a topos, in particular is not the category of models of a…

We consider three (2-)categories and their (anti-)equivalence. They are the category of small abelian categories and exact functors, the category of definable additive categories and interpretation functors, the category of locally coherent…

We exhibit an extension of the category of class two nilpotent groups. It has the same objects but, unlike the latter, its morphisms are closed under pointwise addition of maps. At the same time the class of its morphisms is much smaller…

We are checking the closed categories beginning with the category of sets and ending with the category of categories. The novelty is a generalizing the notion of adjoint functors to the joint pair of functors in the category of directed…

For a nice-enough category $\mathcal{C}$, we construct both the morphism category ${\rm H}(\mathcal{C})$ of $\mathcal{C}$ and the category ${\rm mod}\mbox{-}\mathcal{C}$ of all finitely presented contravariant additive functors over…

In the paper "Extensional PERs" by P. Freyd, P. Mulry, G. Rosolini and D. Scott, a category $\mathcal{C}$ of "pointed complete extensional PERs" and computable maps is introduced to provide an instance of an \emph{algebraically compact…

The importance of accessible categories has been widely recognized; they can be described as those freely generated in some precise sense by a small set of objects and, because of that, satisfy many good properties. More specifically…

We define notions of direct and inverse limits in an $n$-category. We prove that the $n+1$-category $nCAT'$ of fibrant $n$-categories admits direct and inverse limits. At the end we speculate (without proofs) on some applications of the…

Abstract inner automorphisms can be used to promote any category into a 2-category, and we study two-dimensional limits and colimits in the resulting 2-categories. Existing connected colimits and limits in the starting category become…

We demonstrate that, in certain cases, quantization and the classical limit provide functors that are "almost inverse" to each other. These functors map between categories of algebraic structures for classical and quantum physics,…

Recent work in set theory indicates that there are many different notions of 'set', each captured by a different collection of axioms, as proposed by J. Hamkins in [Ham11]. In this paper we strive to give one class theory that allows for a…

This paper aims to apply the tool of generalized existential completions of conjunctive doctrines, concerning a class $\Lambda$ of morphisms of their base category, to deepen the study of regular and exact completions of existential…

For a diagram of simplicial combinatorial model categories, we show that the associated lax limit, endowed with the projective model structure, is a presentation of the lax limit of the underlying $\infty$-categories. Our approach can also…

We study the behavior of the abstract sectional category in the Quillen, the Strom and the Mixed proper model structures on topological spaces and prove that, under certain reasonable conditions, all of them coincide with the classical…

The work is devoted to the extension groups in the category of functors from a small category to an additive category with an Abelian structure in the sense of Heller. It is constructed a spectral sequence which converges to the extension…

We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

We generalize the construction of reflection functors from classical representation theory of quivers to arbitrary small categories with freely attached sinks or sources. These reflection morphisms are shown to induce equivalences between…

Constructor theory is a meta-theoretic approach that seeks to characterise concrete theories of physics in terms of the (im)possibility to implement certain abstract "tasks" by means of physical processes. Process theory, on the other hand,…

We begin with a context more general than set theory. The basic ingredients are essentially the object and functor primitives of category theory, and the logic is weak, requiring neither the Law of Excluded Middle nor quantification. Inside…
