In this paper we show that the Baues-Wirsching complex used to define cohomology of categories is a 2-functor from a certain 2-category of natural systems of abelian groups to the 2-category of chain complexes, chain homomorphism and…
In asymptotically free theories with collinear divergences it is sometimes claimed that these divergences cancel if one sums over initial and final state degenerate cross-sections and uses an off-shell renormalisation scheme. We show for…
We give an elementary introduction to the theory of triangulated categories covering their axioms, homological algebra in triangulated categories, triangulated subcategories, and Verdier localization. We try to use a minimal set of axioms…
We provide, among other things: (i) a Bousfield--Kan formula for colimits in $\infty$-categories (generalizing the 1-categorical formula for a colimit as a coequalizer of maps between coproducts); (ii) $\infty$-categorical generalizations…
The program of internal type theory seeks to develop the categorical model theory of dependent type theory using the language of dependent type theory itself. In the present work we study internal homotopical type theory by relaxing the…
Two first-order logic theories are definitionally equivalent if and only if there is a bijection between their model classes that preserves isomorphisms and ultraproducts (Theorem 2). This is a variant of a prior theorem of van Benthem and…
The classification of one parameter local Coulomb branch solution of theories with eight supercharges is given by assuming that it is given by a genus $g$ fiberation of Riemann surfaces. The crucial point is the fact that certain conjugacy…
Cosheaves are a dual notion of sheaves. In this paper, we prove existence of a dual of sheafifications, called \textit{cosheafifications}, in the $\infty$-category theory. We also prove that the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-cosheaves is…
We study properties of a category after quotienting out a suitable chosen group of isomorphisms on each object. Coproducts in the original category are described in its quotient by our new weaker notion of a 'phased coproduct'. We examine…
The divergence theorem in its usual form applies only to suitably smooth vector fields. For vector fields which are merely piecewise smooth, as is natural at a boundary between regions with different physical properties, one must patch…
We classify thick subcategories of the $\infty$-categories of perfect modules over ring spectra which arise as functions on even periodic derived stacks satisfying affineness and regularity conditions. For example, we show that the thick…
We establish two versions of a central theorem, the Family Colimit Theorem, for the coarse coherence property of metric spaces. This is a coarse geometric property and so is well-defined for finitely generated groups with word metrics. It…
We give a short, critical review of the issue of decoherence. We establish the most general framework in which decoherence can be discussed, how it can be quantified and how it can be measured. We focus on environment induced decoherence…
This paper proves coherence results for categories with a natural transformation called \emph{intermutation} made of arrows from $(A\wedge B)\vee(C\wedge D)$ to ${(A\vee C)\wedge(B\vee D)}$, for $\wedge$ and $\vee$ being two biendofunctors.…
Given a 2-category $\mathcal{A}$, a $2$-functor $\mathcal{A} \overset {F} {\longrightarrow} \mathcal{C}at$ and a distinguished 1-subcategory $\Sigma \subset \mathcal{A}$ containing all the objects, a $\sigma$-cone for $F$ (with respect to…
I motivate a variation (due to K. Szlach\'{a}nyi) of monoidal categories called skew-monoidal categories where the unital and associativity laws are not required to be isomorphisms, only natural transformations. Coherence has to be…
We extend the Quillen Theorem Bn for homotopy fibers of Dwyer, et al. to similar results for homotopy pullbacks and note that these results imply similar results for zigzags in the categories of relative categories and k-relative…
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…
In enriched category theory, the notion of extranatural transformations is more fundamental than that of ordinary natural transformations, and the ends, the universal extranatural transformations, play a critical role. On the other hand,…
A cocycle category H(X,Y) is defined for objects X and Y in a model category, and it is shown that the set of morphisms [X,Y] is isomorphic to the set of path components of H(X,Y) provided the ambient model category is right proper and…
