We develop the theory of n-stacks (or more generally Segal n-stacks which are $\infty$-stacks such that the morphisms are invertible above degree n). This is done by systematically using the theory of closed model categories (cmc). Our main…
We demonstrate how category theory provides specifications that can efficiently be implemented via imperative algorithms and apply this to the field of graph rewriting. By examples, we show how this paradigm of software development makes it…
We study local systems of $(\infty,n)$-categories on spaces. We prove that categorical local systems are captured by (higher) monodromy data: in particular, if $X$ is $(n+1)$-connected, then local systems of $(\infty,n)$-categories over $X$…
We define complete Segal objects, which play the role of internal higher category objects. Then we study them using representable Cartesian fibrations, in particular defining adjunctions and limits of complete Segal objects. Finally we use…
Two novel descriptions of weak {\omega}-categories have been recently proposed, using type-theoretic ideas. The first one is the dependent type theory CaTT whose models are {\omega}-categories. The second is a recursive description of a…
Indexed languages are a classical notion in formal language theory, which has attracted attention in recent decades due to its role in higher-order model checking: They are precisely the languages accepted by order-2 pushdown automata. The…
Models of dependent type theories are contextual categories with some additional structure. We prove that if a theory $T$ has enough structure, then the category $T\text{-}\mathbf{Mod}$ of its models carries the structure of a model…
With a view on applications in computing, in particular concurrency theory and higher-dimensional rewriting, we develop notions of $n$-fold monoid and comonoid objects in $n$-fold monoidal categories and bicategories. We present a series of…
Let $X$ be a $G$-space. In this paper, we introduce the notion of sectional category with respect to $G$. As a result, we obtain $G$-homotopy invariants: the LS category with respect to $G$, the sequential topological complexity with…
We develop an alternative to the May-Thomason construction used to compare operad based infinite loop machines to that of Segal, which relies on weak products. Our construction has the advantage that it can be carried out in $Cat$, whereas…
Deep learning, despite its remarkable achievements, is still a young field. Like the early stages of many scientific disciplines, it is marked by the discovery of new phenomena, ad-hoc design decisions, and the lack of a uniform and…
A general method for lifting weak factorization systems in a category S to model category structures on simplicial objects in S is described, analogously to the lifting of cotorsion pairs in Abelian categories to model category structures…
To a bicomplex one can associate two natural filtrations, the column and row filtrations, and then two associated spectral sequences. This can be generalized to $N$-multicomplexes. We present a family of model category structures on the…
We introduce rational $(\infty, 1)$-categories, which are $(\infty, 1)$-categories enriched in spaces whose higher homotopy groups are rational vector spaces. We provide two models for rational $(\infty, 1)$-categories, rational complete…
In previous work, we showed that there are appropriate model category structures on the category of simplicial categories and on the category of Segal precategories, and that they are Quillen equivalent to one another and to Rezk's complete…
We develop a homotopical framework for small categories that extends classical invarints of algebraic topology to the categorical setting. Our approach is based on the construction of genuine path category, obtained trough a localization…
Category theory unifies mathematical concepts, aiding comparisons across structures by incorporating objects and morphisms, which capture their interactions. It has influenced areas of computer science such as automata theory, functional…
We propose a new framework for the study of homological properties for (compactly generated) triangulated categories such as regularity, finiteness of global or finitistic dimension, gorensteinness or injective generation and the relation…
In this paper we develop a novel mathematical formalism for the modeling of neural information networks endowed with additional structure in the form of assignments of resources, either computational or metabolic or informational. The…
We give a presentation of Feynman categories from a representation--theoretical viewpoint. Feynman categories are a special type of monoidal categories and their representations are monoidal functors. They can be viewed as a far reaching…
