We classify the prelocalizing subcategories of the category of quasi-coherent sheaves on a locally noetherian scheme. In order to give the classification, we introduce the notion of a local filter of subobjects of the structure sheaf. The…

We study presheaves on semicategories enriched in a quantaloid: this gives rise to the notion of regular presheaf. A semicategory is regular when its representable presheaves are regular, and its regular presheaves then constitute an…

Applying (enriched) categorical structures we define the notion of ordered sheaf on a quantaloid Q, which we call `Q-order'. This requires a theory of semicategories enriched in the quantaloid Q, that admit a suitable Cauchy completion.…

Precategories generalize both the notions of strict $n$-category and sesquicategory: their definition is essentially the same as the one of strict $n$-categories, excepting that we do not require the various interchange laws to hold. Those…

The study of Haeflier suggests that it is natural to regard a pseudogroup as an etale groupoid. We show that any etale groupoid corresponds to a pseudogroup sheaf, a new generalization of a pseudogroup. This correspondence is an analog of…

By restricting to a class of localic open groupoids $G$ which, similarly to Lie groupoids, possess appropriate covers $\widehat G\to G$ by \'etale groupoids, we extend results about groupoid actions and quantales that were previously proved…

We introduce the notion of a definable category--a category equivalent to a full subcategory of a locally finitely presentable category that is closed under products, directed colimits and pure subobjects. Definable subcategories are…

We give a detailed account of the theory of enrichment over a bicategory and show that it establishes a two-fold generalization of enrichment over both quantaloids and monoidal categories. We define complete B-categories, a generalization…

We give a new description of computads for weak globular $\omega$-categories by giving an explicit inductive definition of the free words. This yields a new understanding of computads, and allows a new definition of $\omega$-category that…

The authors define a Category $\mathcal{O}$ for any quasi-reductive Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with respect to a triangular decomposition. This much needed approach unifies many important constructions in the existing literature in a…

We study the relationship between presheaf constructions and free cocompletions in the context of formal category theory, elucidating the coincidence between the two concepts in familiar settings. We show that, in a virtual equipment…

A subunit in a monoidal category is a subobject of the monoidal unit for which a canonical morphism is invertible. They correspond to open subsets of a base topological space in categories such as those of sheaves or Hilbert modules. We…

A $\mathcal{C}$-set is a functor from the category $\mathcal{C}$ to the category of finite sets and functions. The category of $\mathcal{C}$-sets, $\mathcal{C} - \operatorname*{set}$, is defined as the category whose objects are…

We define the notion of a sheaf over a complex of groups. As an application, we give a criterion for the developability of a complex of groups. When the developability is witnessed by a morphism to $\mathrm{GL}(V)$ for some $V$, our…

Sheaves are objects of a local nature: a global section is determined by how it looks locally. Hence, a sheaf cannot describe mathematical structures which contain global or nonlocal geometric information. To fill this gap, we introduce the…

We give an explicit construction of the category Opetope of opetopes. We prove that the category of opetopic sets is equivalent to the category of presheaves over Opetope.

We introduce subquotient categories of the restricted affine category O at the critical level and show that some of them have a realization in terms of moment graph sheaves.

It is well-known that reduced smooth orbifolds and proper effective foliation Lie groupoids form equivalent categories. However, for certain recent lines of research, equivalence of categories is not sufficient. We propose a notion of maps…

The center $Z(\mathcal{A})$ of an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$ is the endomorphism ring of the identity functor on that category. A localizing subcategory of a Grothendieck category $\mathcal{C}$ is said to be stable if it is stable under…

Building on work of Marta Bunge in the one-categorical case, we characterize when a given model category is Quillen equivalent to a presheaf category with the projective model structure. This involves introducing a notion of homotopy atoms,…
