We establish a Quillen equivalence relating the homotopy theory of Segal operads and the homotopy theory of simplicial operads, from which we deduce that the homotopy coherent nerve functor is a right Quillen equivalence from the model…

Given a bisimplicial set, there are two ways to extract from it a simplicial set: the diagonal simplicial set and the less well known total simplicial set of Artin and Mazur. There is a natural comparison map between these two simplicial…

We construct the algebra of fractions of a Weak Bialgebra relative to a suitable denominator set of group-like elements that is `almost central', a condition we introduce in the present article which is sufficient in order to guarantee…

The most natural notion of a simplicial nerve for a (weak) bicategory was given by Duskin, who showed that a simplicial set is isomorphic to the nerve of a $(2,1)$-category (i.e. a bicategory with invertible $2$-morphisms) if and only if it…

This paper develops the foundations of a simplicial theory of weak omega-categories, which builds upon the insights originally expounded by Ross Street in his 1987 paper on oriented simplices. The resulting theory of weak complicial sets…

We construct a cofibrantly generated Quillen model structure on the category of small n-fold categories and prove that it is Quillen equivalent to the standard model structure on the category of simplicial sets. An n-fold functor is a weak…

In a previous paper, we obtained a cohomological obstruction to the existence of compact manifolds locally modelled on a homogeneous space. In this paper, we give a classification of the semisimple symmetric spaces to which this obstruction…

We develop a framework relating semiorthogonal decompositions of a triangulated category $\mathcal{C}$ to paths in its space of stability conditions. We prove that when $\mathcal{C}$ is the homotopy category of a smooth and proper…

This thesis is devoted to the proof of a theorem showing the existence of a closed model category structure for weakly enriched categories. It requires first of all the definitions of weakly enriched categories and equivalences of weakly…

In this paper the concept of compatible weak factorization systems in general categories is introduced as a counterpart of compatible complete cotorsion pairs in abelian categories. We describe a method to construct model structures on…

We study the notion of a bifibration in simplicial sets which generalizes the classical notion of two-sided discrete fibration studied in category theory. If $A$ and $B$ are simplicial sets we equip the category of simplicial sets over…

We show that in a weak globular $\omega$-category, all composition operations are equivalent and commutative for cells with sufficiently degenerate boundary, which can be considered a higher-dimensional generalisation of the Eckmann-Hilton…

We show that if $(M,\tensor,I)$ is a monoidal model category then $\REnd_M(I)$ is a (weak) 2-monoid in $\sSet$. This applies in particular when $M$ is the category of $A$-bimodules over a simplicial monoid $A$: the derived endomorphisms of…

Let $R$ be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over $R$ in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all…

Poly-bicategories generalise planar polycategories in the same way as bicategories generalise monoidal categories. In a poly-bicategory, the existence of enough 2-cells satisfying certain universal properties (representability) induces…

We derive a new sufficient condition for the existence of {\omega}-categorical universal structures in classes of relational structures with constraints, augmenting results by Cherlin, Shelah, Chi, and Hubi\v{c}ka and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il.…

For those deformations that satisfy a certain non-degeneracy condition, we describe the structure of certain simple modules of the deformations of the subcharacter algebra of a finite group. For finite abelian groups, we prove that the…

Given an additive equational category with a closed symmetric monoidal structure and a potential dualizing object, we find sufficient conditions that the category of topological objects over that category has a good notion of full…

A concrete computation -- twelve slidings with sixteen tiles -- reveals that certain commutativity phenomena occur in every double semigroup. This can be seen as a sort of Eckmann-Hilton argument, but it does not use units. The result…

We give a classification of semisimple and separable algebras in a multi-fusion category over an arbitrary field in analogy to Wedderben-Artin theorem in classical algebras. It turns out that, if the multi-fusion category admits a…
