Given any finite set equipped with a probability measure, one may compute its Shannon entropy or information content. The entropy becomes the logarithm of the cardinality of the set when the uniform probability is used. Leinster introduced…
Building on work by Fiore-Pronk-Paoli, we construct four model structures on the category of double categories, each modeling one of the following: simplicial spaces, Segal spaces, $(\infty,1)$-categories, and $\infty$-groupoids.…
While many different models for $(\infty,1)$-categories are currently being used, it is known that they are Quillen equivalent to one another. Several higher-order analogues of them are being developed as models for $(\infty,…
Weak $\infty$-categories are known to be more expressive than their strict counterparts, but are more difficult to work with, as constructions in such a category involve the manipulation of explicit coherence data. This motivates the search…
In this note, we study the connection between Gray tensor product and suspension. We derive a characterization of weak equivalences as fully faithful and essentially surjective functors. We construct the $co$ duality, a weak involution that…
We introduce, comment and develop the Scott adjunction, mostly from the point of view of a category theorist. Besides its technical and conceptual aspects, in a nutshell we provide a categorification of the Scott topology over a posets with…
We present the first definition of strictly associative and unital $\infty$-category. Our proposal takes the form of a type theory whose terms describe the operations of such structures, and whose definitional equality relation enforces…
Symmetric monoidal closed categories may be related to one another not only by the functors between them but also by enrichment of one in another, and it was known to G. M. Kelly in the 1960s that there is a very close connection between…
A common technique for producing a new model category structure is to lift the fibrations and weak equivalences of an existing model structure along a right adjoint. Formally dual but technically much harder is to lift the cofibrations and…
We introduce a framework for universal algebra in categories of relational structures given by finitary relational signatures and finitary or infinitary Horn theories, with the arity $\lambda$ of a Horn theory understood as a strict upper…
This paper uses monads and comonads to establish a certain type of equivalence between two subcategories, one reflective and one coreflective, in a category whose objects represent compactifications of non-compact locally compact Hausdorff…
This paper presents the proof of the coherence theorem for Ann-categories whose set of axioms and original basic properties were given in [9]. Let $$\A=(\A,{\Ah},c,(0,g,d),a,(1,l,r),{\Lh},{\Rh})$$ be an Ann-category. The coherence theorem…
In the present work, a natural sequel to \cite{MaPi1}, we further discuss the existence of adjunctions between categories of institutions and of $\pi$-institutions. This is done at both a foundational and an applied level. Firstly, we…
We present a doctrinal approach to category theory, obtained by abstracting from the indexed inclusions (via discrete fibrations and opfibrations) of the left and of the right actions of X in Cat in categories over X. Namely, a "weak…
We provide a fairly self-contained account of the localisation and cofinality theorems for the algebraic $\mathrm{K}$-theory of stable $\infty$-categories. It is based on a general formula for the evaluation of an additive functor on a…
This paper develops a systematic framework for integrating local categories that model logical connectives using higher category theory. By extending these local categories into a unified two-category enriched with natural isomorphisms, the…
We develop the theory of tricategorical limits and colimits, and show that they can be modelled up to biequivalence via certain homotopically well-behaved limits and colimits enriched over the monoidal model category $\mathbf{Gray}$ of…
We introduce a notion of Poincar\'e duality for pairs of $\infty$-categories, extending Poincar\'e-Lefschetz duality for pairs of spaces. This categorical extension yields an efficient book-keeping device that affords, among other things, a…
This paper investigates the notion of compact R-continuity and its specifications for set-valued mappings between Banach spaces. We reveal several important properties of compact R-continuity in general settings and show that in finite…
This paper is a rather informal guide to some of the basic theory of 2-categories and bicategories, including notions of limit and colimit, 2-dimensional universal algebra, formal category theory, and nerves of bicategories. As is the way…
