We identify the obstructions for the functoriality and the uniqueness of the totalization functor, (partially) defined on the category of simplicial objects in the homotopy category of a stable model category, and we use a result from the…

We use the homotopy invariance of equivariant principal bundles to prove that the equivariant ${\mathcal A}$-category of Clapp and Puppe is invariant under Morita equivalence. As a corollary, we obtain that both the equivariant…

By analogy with the invariant Q-category defined by Scheerer, Stanley and Tanr\'e, we introduce the notions of Q-sectional category and Q-topological complexity. We establish several properties of these invariants. We also obtain a formula…

We construct a symmetric monoidal category $LIE^{MC}$ whose objects are shifted L-infinity algebras equipped with a complete descending filtration. Morphisms of this category are "enhanced" infinity morphisms between shifted L-infinity…

The notion of effective topological complexity, introduced by B{\l}aszczyk and Kaluba, deals with using group actions in the configuration space in order to reduce the complexity of the motion planning algorithm. In this article we focus on…

This paper addresses a question posed by F\'elix, Halperin and Thomas. We prove that the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a relative Sullivan algebra is finite if such invariants of the base algebra and fiber algebra are both finite.…

In this article we study a homotopy invariant cat(X,B,\xi) on a pair of finite CW complexes with respect to a continuous closed 1-form. This is a generalisation of a Lusternik-Schnirelmann category developed by Farber, studying the topology…

For each strongly connected finite-dimensional (pure) simplicial complex we construct a finite group, the group of projectivities of the complex, which is a combinatorial but not a topological invariant. This group is studied for…

In this paper we address the classification problem for purely infinite simple Leavitt path algebras of finite graphs over a field $\ell$. Each graph $E$ has associated a Leavitt path $\ell$-algebra $L(E)$. There is an open question which…

Lusternik-Schnirelmann category (LS-category) of a topological space is the least integer $n$ such that there is a covering of $X$ by $n+1$ open sets, each of them being contractible in $X$. The cone length is the minimum number of…

The use of homological and homotopical devices, such as Tor and Andr\'e-Quillen homology, have found substantial use in characterizing commutative algebras. The primary category setting has been differentially graded algebras and modules,…

In this paper, we study three relative LS categories of a map and study some of their properties. Then we introduce the `higher topological complexity' and `weak higher topological complexity' of a map. Each of them are homotopy invariants.…

We define a new version of Topological Complexity (TC) of a space, denoted as $\text{dTC}$, which, we think, fits better for motion planning for some autonomous systems. Like Topological complexity, \text{dTC} is also a homotopy invariant.…

A flag complex can be defined as a simplicial complex whose simplices correspond to complete subgraphs of its 1-skeleton taken as a graph. In this article, by introducing the notion of s-dismantlability, we shall define the s-homotopy type…

A simplicial set is said to be non-singular if its non-degenerate simplices are embedded. Let $sSet$ denote the category of simplicial sets. We prove that the full subcategory $nsSet$ whose objects are the non-singular simplicial sets…

We provide a generalized treatment of (co)cartesian arrows, fibrations, and functors. Compared to the classical conditions, the endpoint inclusions get replaced by arbitrary shape inclusions. Our framework is Riehl--Shulman's simplicial…

Category theory in homotopy type theory is intricate as categorical laws can only be stated "up to homotopy", and thus require coherences. The established notion of a univalent category (Ahrens, Kapulkin, Shulman) solves this by considering…
