In this work we shall introduce a new model structure on the category of pro-simplicial sheaves, which is very convenient for the study of \'etale homotopy. Using this model structure we define a pro-space associated to a topos, as a result…

Persistence homology is a tool used to measure topological features that are present in data sets and functions. Persistence pairs births and deaths of these features as we iterate through the sublevel sets of the data or function of…

Every second flat Reidemeister move of knot projections can be decomposed into two types thorough an inverse or direct self-tangency modification, respectively called strong or weak, when orientations of the knot projections are arbitrarily…

We develop a theoretical framework for the classification and construction of symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases, which are a special class of zero-temperature phases of strongly interacting gapped quantum many-body systems that…

Nearness theory comes into play in homotopy theory because the notion of closeness between points is essential in determining whether two spaces are homotopy equivalent. While nearness theory and homotopy theory have different focuses and…

We explore the cumulative hierarchy $V$ defined in Chapter 10 of the HoTT book. We begin by showing how to translate formulas of set theory in HoTT, and proceed to examine which axioms are satisfied in $V$. In particular, we show that $V$…

Homotopy comomentum maps are a higher generalization of the notion of moment map introduced to extend the concept of Hamiltonian actions to the framework of multisymplectic geometry. Loosely speaking, higher means passing from considering…

In constructive set theory, an ordinal is a hereditarily transitive set. In homotopy type theory (HoTT), an ordinal is a type with a transitive, wellfounded, and extensional binary relation. We show that the two definitions are equivalent…

A typoid is a type equipped with an equivalence relation, such that the terms of equivalence between the terms of the type satisfy certain conditions, with respect to a given equivalence relation between them, that generalise the properties…

By introducing various topologies on the homotopy groups of a topological space, some researchers make these well known notions in algebraic topology more useful and powerful. In this paper, first we recall and review some known topologies…

The theory of abelian categories proved very useful, providing an axiomatic framework for homology and cohomology of modules over a ring and, in particular, of abelian groups. For many years, a similar categorical framework has been lacking…

Categories with families (CwFs) have been used to define the semantics of type theory in type theory. In the setting of Homotopy Type Theory (HoTT), one of the limitations of the traditional notion of CwFs is the requirement to set-truncate…

We study 2-monads and their algebras using a Cat-enriched version of Quillen model categories, emphasizing the parallels between the homotopical and 2-categorical points of view. Every 2-category with finite limits and colimits has a…

In a constructive setting, no concrete formulation of ordinal numbers can simultaneously have all the properties one might be interested in; for example, being able to calculate limits of sequences is constructively incompatible with…

This is the fourth in a series of papers extending Martin-L\"of's meaning explanation of dependent type theory to higher-dimensional types. In this installment, we show how to define cubical type systems supporting a general schema of…

In the context of categories equipped with a structure of nullhomotopies, we introduce the notion of homotopy torsion theory. As special cases, we recover pretorsion theories as well as torsion theories in multi-pointed categories and in…

Weak $\omega$-categories are notoriously difficult to define because of the very intricate nature of their axioms. Various approaches have been explored, based on different shapes given to the cells. Interestingly, homotopy type theory…

Higher-order topological insulators (HOTI) are a novel topological phase beyond the framework of the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence. In these peculiar systems, the topologically nontrivial boundary modes are characterized by a…

(This is an updated version; following an idea of Voevodsky, we have strengthened our results so all of them apply to one form of motivic homotopy theory). We give two general constructions for the passage from unstable to stable homotopy…

We develop the homotopy theory of semisimplicial sets constructively and without reference to point-set topology to obtain a constructive model for $\omega$-groupoids. Most of the development is folklore, but for a few results the author is…
