Through the notion of weakly sound class of weights, we recover many known dualities involving accessible categories with a chosen class of limits, as instances of a general duality theorem. These include the Gabriel-Ulmer duality for…

We study limits in 2-categories whose objects are categories with extra structure and whose morphisms are functors preserving the structure only up to a coherent comparison map, which may or may not be required to be invertible. This is…

We introduce the Euler-Poincar\'e's characteristic with an elementary way and historically. We explain also why one should call Descartes-Poincar\'e characteristic instead of the Euler-Poincar\'e's characteristic. All the considered spaces…

The Euler form is an Ext analog of the Euler characteristic, and in this paper we study the Euler form and give some applications. The first being a question of Jorgensen, which bounds the projective dimension of a module over a complete…

The angle defect, which is the standard way to measure curvature at the vertices of polyhedral surfaces, goes back at least as far as Descartes. Although the angle defect has been widely studied, there does not appear to be in the…

Indices of singular points of a vector field or of a 1-form on a smooth manifold are closely related with the Euler characteristic through the classical Poincar\'e--Hopf theorem. Generalized Euler characteristics (additive topological…

We consider some parametrized classes of multiple sums first studied by Euler. Identities between meromorphic functions of one or more variables generate reduction formulae for these sums.

Let G be a countable discrete group and let M be a smooth proper cocompact G-manifold without boundary. The Euler operator defines via Kasparov theory an element, called the equivariant Euler class, in the equivariant K-homology of M. The…

This thesis is devoted to the proof of a theorem showing the existence of a closed model category structure for weakly enriched categories. It requires first of all the definitions of weakly enriched categories and equivalences of weakly…

We construct a left semi-model category of "marked strict $\infty$-categories" for which the fibrant objects are those whose marked arrows satisfy natural closure properties and are weakly invertible. The canonical model structure on strict…

We prove several claims made by Kontsevich about the orbifold Euler characteristic of the three types of graph homology introduced by him. For this purpose, first we develop a simplified version of the Feynman diagram method, which requires…

We prove that the minimal Euler characteristic of a closed symplectic four-manifold with given fundamental group is often much larger than the minimal Euler characteristic of almost complex closed four-manifolds with the same fundamental…

In this article, we study Euler characteristic techniques in topological data analysis. Pointwise computing the Euler characteristic of a family of simplicial complexes built from data gives rise to the so-called Euler characteristic…

We show that for any type in Martin-L\"of Intensional Type Theory, the terms of that type and its higher identity types form a weak omega-category in the sense of Leinster. Precisely, we construct a contractible globular operad of definable…

We develop a general method for computing the homological Euler characteristic of finite index subgroups G of GL_m(O_K) where O_K is the ring of integers in a number field K. With this method we find, that for large, explicitly computed…

We characterize the possible behaviors at infinity of weak solutions to the 2D Euler equations in the full plane having bounded velocity and bounded vorticity. We show that any such solution can be put in the form obtained by Ph. Serfati in…

We characterize those finite groups for which the bounded derived category of finite dimensional representations over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ has distributive lattice of thick subcategories: they are precisely…

In this note we will present how Euler's investigations on various different subjects lead to certain properties of the Legendre polynomials. More precisely, we will show that the generating function and the difference equation for the…

For an integer $k$, define poly-Euler numbers of the second kind $\widehat E_n^{(k)}$ ($n=0,1,\dots$) by $$ \frac{{\rm Li}_k(1-e^{-4 t})}{4\sinh t}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\widehat E_n^{(k)}\frac{t^n}{n!}\,. $$ When $k=1$, $\widehat E_n=\widehat…

The present work is devoted to an extension of the well-known Ehrling inequalities, which quantitatively characterize compact embeddings of function spaces, to more general operators. Firstly, a modified notion of continuity for linear…
