This article presents a novel approach to construct a model category structure designed to model the homotopy theory of spaces equipped with an action by the group $C_2$, where morphisms are considered to be isovariant. Our methodology…
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…
We generalize the notion of a bornology by omitting the condition that a one-point-subset is bounded and obtain a complete and co-complete generalization of the category of bornological coarse spaces. Then we imitate the construction of…
We study rack and quandle coverings from a universal algebraic viewpoint and we show how they can be understood using the notion of strongly abelian congruences. We provide an abstract characterization of several particular types of…
In this work, we investigate the behaviour of the covering gonality of a very general hypersurface in a product of projective spaces. Inspired by the work of Bastianelli, Ciliberto, Flamini and Suppino in [BCFS19] which addresses the case…
In topology, the notions of the fundamental group and the universal cover are closely intertwined. By importing usual notions from topology into the algebraic and arithmetic setting, we construct a fundamental group family from a universal…
In [1] we introduced the concept of structured space, which is a topological space that locally resembles some algebraic structures. In [2] we proceeded the study of these spaces, developing two cohomology theories. The aim of this paper is…
H. Fischer et al. (Topology and its Application, 158 (2011) 397-408.) introduced the Spanier group of a based space $(X,x)$ which is denoted by $\psp$. By a Spanier space we mean a space $X$ such that $\psp=\pi_1(X,x)$, for every $x\in X$.…
We develop category-theoretic framework for universal homogeneous objects, with some applications in the theory of Banach spaces, linear orderings, and in topology of compact spaces.
We discuss various uniform structures and topologies on the universal covering space $\widetilde X$ and on the fundamental group $\pi_1(X,x_0)$. We introduce a canonical uniform structure $CU(X)$ on a topological space $X$ and use it to…
This is a book on higher-categorical diagrams, including pasting diagrams. It aims to provide a thorough and modern reference on the subject, collecting, revisiting and expanding results scattered across the literature, informed by recent…
The fundamental groupoid of a locally 0 and 1-connected space classifies covering spaces, or equivalently local systems. When the space is topologically stratified Treumann, based on unpublished ideas of MacPherson, constructed an `exit…
Hyperspaces form a powerful tool in some branches of mathematics: lots of fractal and other geometric objects can be viewed as fixed points of some functions in suitable hyperspaces - as well as interesting classes of formal languages in…
We develop a unified categorical framework for gauging both continuous and finite symmetries in arbitrary spacetime dimensions. Our construction applies to geometric categories i.e. categories internal to stacks. This generalizes the…
We develop a theory of $\times$-homotopy, fundamental groupoids and covering spaces that apply to non-simple graphs, generalizing existing results for simple graphs. We prove that $\times$-homotopies from finite graphs can be decomposed…
We develop foundations for oriented category theory, an extension of $(\infty,\infty)$-category theory obtained by systematic usage of the Gray tensor product, in order to study lax phenomena in higher category theory. As categorical…
In "Rips complexes and covers in the uniform category" \cite{Rips} the authors define, following James \cite{J}, covering maps of uniform spaces and introduce the concept of generalized uniform covering maps. Conditions for the existence of…
We study the homotopy right Kan extension of homotopy sheaves on a category to its free cocompletion, i.e. to its category of presheaves. Any pretopology on the original category induces a canonical pretopology of generalised coverings on…
The paper gives a categorical approach to generalized manifolds such as orbit spaces and leaf spaces of foliations. It is suggested to consider these spaces as sets equipped with some additional structure which generalizes the notion of…
In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…
