We study reductions well suited to compare structures and classes of structures with respect to properties based on enumeration reducibility. We introduce the notion of a positive enumerable functor and study the relationship with…
We classify the polynomials with integral coefficients that, when evaluated on a group element of finite order $n$, define a unit in the integral group ring for infinitely many positive integers $n$. We show that this happens if and only if…
We establish a correspondence between consistent comprehension schemes and complete orthogonal factorisation systems. The comprehensive factorisation of a functor between small categories arises in this way. Similar factorisation systems…
Graduated locally finitely presentable categories are introduced, examples include categories of sets, vector spaces, posets, presheaves and Boolean algebras. A finitary functor between graduated locally finitely presentable categories is…
We prove a classification of additive polynomial superfunctors, which allows us to compute some extensions of a superfunctor of the form $F \circ A$ where $F$ is a classical polynomial functor and $A$ is additive. We get a formula which…
We study the structure of the category of representations of $\mathbf{FA}$, the category of finite sets and all maps, mostly working over a field of characteristic zero. This category is not semi-simple and exhibits interesting features. We…
A vector partition function is the number of ways to write a vector as a non-negative integer-coefficient sum of the elements of a finite set of vectors $\Delta$. We present a new algorithm for computing closed-form formulas for vector…
We give an infinite family of polynomials that have roots modulo every positive integer but fail to have rational roots. Each polynomial in this family is made up of monic quadratic factors that do not have linear term.
The paper defines polynomials in a bicategory $\mathscr{M}$. Polynomials in bicategories $\mathrm{Spn}\mathscr{C} \ $ of spans in a finitely complete category $\mathscr{C} \ $ agree with polynomials in $\mathscr{C} \ $ as defined by Nicola…
We prove a class of equivalences of additive functor categories that are relevant to enumerative combinatorics, representation theory, and homotopy theory. Let $\mathscr{X}$ denote an additive category with finite direct sums and split…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an essentially small abelian category. We prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ admits a generator $M$ with ${\rm End}_{\mathcal{A}}(M)$ right artinian, then $\mathcal{A}$ admits a projective generator. If $\mathcal{A}$ is…
We initiate the study of derived functors in the setting of extriangulated categories. By using coends, we adapt Yoneda's theory of higher extensions to this framework. We show that, when there are enough projectives or enough injectives,…
Summation of a large class of the functional series, which terms contain factorials, is considered. We first investigated finite partial sums for integer arguments. These sums have the same values in real and all p-adic cases. The…
We define the notion of a $\lambda$-definable category, a generalisation of the notion of definable category from the model theory of modules. Let ${\cal C}$ be a $\lambda$-accessible additive category. We characterise the additive functors…
We show that the unbounded derived category of a Grothendieck category with enough projective objects is the base category of a derivator whose category of diagrams is the full 2-category of small categories. With this structure, we give a…

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 identify the obstructions for the functoriality and the uniqueness of the totalization functor, (partially) defined on the category of simplicial objects in the homotopy category of a stable model category, and we use a result from the…
Functors with an instance of the Traversable type class can be thought of as data structures which permit a traversal of their elements. This has been made precise by the correspondence between traversable functors and finitary containers…
The purpose of this note is to consider in detail the construction of derived functors. The classical construction, such as in Cartan-Eilenberg or Grothendieck, is clarified, and it is shown, at the same time, that everything can be…
