We introduce the notion of decomposition space as a general framework for incidence algebras and M\"obius inversion: it is a simplicial infinity-groupoid satisfying an exactness condition weaker than the Segal condition, which expresses…
This is the second in a trilogy of papers introducing and studying the notion of decomposition space as a general framework for incidence algebras and M\"obius inversion, with coefficients in $\infty$-groupoids. A decomposition space is a…
A decomposition space (also called 2-Segal space) is a simplicial object satisfying an exactness condition weaker than the Segal condition: just as the Segal condition expresses composition, the new condition expresses decomposition. It is…
In the same way decomposition spaces, also known as unital 2-Segal spaces, have incidence (co)algebras, and certain relative decomposition spaces have incidence (co)modules, we identify the structures that have incidence bi(co)modules: they…
Decomposition spaces are simplicial $\infty$-groupoids subject to a certain exactness condition, needed to induce a coalgebra structure on the space of arrows. Conservative ULF functors (CULF) between decomposition spaces induce coalgebra…
We provide a unified approach, via deformations of incidence algebras, to several important types of representations with finiteness conditions, as well as the combinatorial algebras which produce them. We show that over finite dimensional…
The incidence algebra of a partially ordered set (poset) supports in a natural way also a coalgebra structure, so that it becomes a m-weak bialgebra even a m-weak Hopf algebra with M\"obius function as antipode. Here m-weak means that…
This paper provides an introduction to decomposition spaces and 2-Segal spaces, unifying the two perspectives. We begin by defining decomposition spaces using the active-inert factorization system on the simplicial category, and show their…
We review work on `decomposition,' a property of two-dimensional theories with 1-form symmetries and, more generally, d-dimensional theories with (d-1)-form symmetries. Decomposition is the observation that such quantum field theories are…
We introduce a notion of antipode for monoidal (complete) decomposition spaces, inducing a notion of weak antipode for their incidence bialgebras. In the connected case, this recovers the usual notion of antipode in Hopf algebras. In the…
In this semi-expository article, we investigate the relationship between the imprimitivity introduced by Mackey several decades ago and commuting $d$- tuples of homogeneous normal operators. The Hahn-Hellinger theorem gives a canonical…
M\"obius inversion, originally a tool in number theory, was generalized to posets for use in group theory and combinatorics. It was later generalized to categories in two different ways, both of which are useful. We provide a unifying…
After introducing some motivations for this survey, we describe a formalism to parametrize a wide class of algebraic structures occurring naturally in various problems of topology, geometry and mathematical physics. This allows us to define…
This is an introduction to Hall algebras from the perspective of $2$-Segal spaces or decomposition spaces, as introduced by Dyckerhoff and Kapranov and G\'{a}lvez-Carrillo, Kock and Tonks, respectively. We explain how linearizations of the…
Stable basis algebras were introduced by Fountain and Gould and developed in a series of articles. They form a class of universal algebras, extending that of independence algebras. If a stable basis algebra $\mathbb{B}$ of finite rank…
A new construction of decomposition smoothness spaces of homogeneous type is considered. The smoothness spaces are based on structured and flexible decompositions of the frequency space $\mathbb{R}^d\backslash\{0\}$. We construct simple…
In this article, we define and study a geometry and an order on the set of partitions of an even number of objects. One of the definitions involves the partition algebra, a structure of algebra on the set of such partitions depending on an…
We show that Schmitt's restriction species (such as graphs, matroids, posets, etc.) naturally induce decomposition spaces (a.k.a. unital 2-Segal spaces), and that their associated coalgebras are an instance of the general construction of…
This thesis is divided into two parts. The first one is composed of recollections on operad theory, model categories, simplicial homotopy theory, rational homotopy theory, Maurer-Cartan spaces, and deformation theory. The second part deals…
We generalize the results on existence and uniqueness of integrals from compact groups and Hopf algebras in a pure (co)algebraic setting, and find a series of new results on (quasi)-co-Frobenius and semiperfect coalgebras. For a coalgebra…
