We introduce some classes of genuine higher categories in homotopy type theory, defined as well-behaved subcategories of the category of types. We give several examples, and some techniques for showing other things are not examples. While…

A dependent theory is a (first order complete theory) T which does not have the independence property. A main result here is: if we expand a model of T by the traces on it of sets definable in a bigger model then we preserve its being…

We introduce various probablistic finiteness conditions for profinite groups related to positive finite generation (PFG). We investigate completed group rings which are PFG as modules, and use this to answer a question of Kionke and the…

Abstract. We provide a characterization of classes of filters $\mathbb{D}$ for which the full subcategory $\operatorname{fix}\operatorname{A}_{\mathbb D}$ of $\mathsf{Conv}$ formed by convergences determined by the adherence of filters of…

We obtain, via the formalism of tensor actions, a complete classification of the localizing subcategories of the stable derived category of any affine scheme with hypersurface singularities and of any local complete intersection over a…

Every $F$-inverse monoid can be equipped with the unary operation which maps each element to the maximum element of its $\sigma$-class. In this enriched signature, the class of all $F$-inverse monoids forms a variety of algebraic…

A finite EI category is a small category with finitely many morphisms such that every endomorphism is an isomorphism. They include finite groups, finite posets and free categories of finite quivers as special cases. In this paper we…

We derive a linear estimate of the signature of positive knots, in terms of their genus. As an application, we show that every knot concordance class contains at most finitely many positive knots.

We resolve the strong Elementary Equivalence versus Isomorphism Problem for finitely generated fields. That is, we show that for every field in this class there is a first-order sentence which characterizes this field within the class up to…

We introduced positive cones in an earlier paper as a notion of ordering on central simple algebras with involution that corresponds to signatures of hermitian forms. In the current paper we describe signatures of hermitian forms directly…

This paper is concerned with the taxonomy of finitely complete categories, based on 'matrix properties' - these are a particular type of exactness properties that can be represented by integer matrices. In particular, the main result of the…

In functional programming languages, generalized algebraic data types (GADTs) are very useful as the unnecessary pattern matching over them can be ruled out by the failure of unification of type arguments. In dependent type systems, this is…

We prove, over any base ring, that the infinity-category of strictly unital A-infinity-categories (and strictly unital functors) is equivalent to the infinity-category of unital A-infinity-categories (and unital functors). We also identify…

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…

We introduce $\infty$-type theories as an $\infty$-categorical generalization of the categorical definition of type theories introduced by the second named author. We establish analogous results to the previous work including the…

We give a characterization of the sets of objects of the derived category of a block of a finite group algebra (or other symmetric algebra) that occur as the set of images of simple modules under an equivalence of derived categories. We…

We describe several infinite families of braided finite tensor categories. A simplest example gives a non-degenerate braided tensor category which is not Witt equivalent to a semisimple category.

We propose a conjectural extension to positive characteristic case of a well known Deligne's theorem on the existence of super fiber functors. We prove our conjecture in the special case of semisimple categories with finitely many…

In the building of a finite group of Lie type we consider the incidence relations defined by oppositeness of flags. Such a relation gives rise to a homomorphism of permutation modules (in the defining characteristic) whose image is a simple…
