Thomason's Homotopy Colimit Theorem has been extended to bicategories and this extension can be adapted, through the delooping principle, to a corresponding theorem for diagrams of monoidal categories. In this version, we show that the…

A recent theorem of Dobrinskaya states that the K(\pi,1)-conjecture holds for an Artin group G if and only if the canonical map from BM to BG is a homotopy equivalence, where M denotes the Artin monoid associated to G. The aim of this paper…

Generalizing Duality Theorem of V. V. Fedorchuk, we prove Stone-type duality theorems for the following four categories: all of them have as objects the locally compact Hausdorff spaces, and their morphisms are, respectively, the continuous…

It was established in [8] that Lipschitz inf-compact functions are uniquely determined by their local slope and critical values. Compactness played a paramount role in this result, ensuring in particular the existence of critical points. We…

Monadically stable and monadically NIP classes of structures were initially studied in the context of model theory and defined in logical terms. They have recently attracted attention in the area of structural graph theory, as they…

We rewrite classical topological definitions using the category-theoretic notation of arrows and are led to concise reformulations in terms of simplicial categories and orthogonality of morphisms, which we hope might be of use in the…

This paper studies a large class of continuous functions $f:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}^d$ whose range is the attractor of an iterated function system $\{S_1,\dots,S_{m}\}$ consisting of similitudes. This class includes such classical examples as…

We establish the following result: if the graph of a (nonsmooth) real-extended-valued function $f:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to \mathbb{R}\cup\{+\infty\}$ is closed and admits a Whitney stratification, then the norm of the gradient of $f$ at…

Graph classes of bounded tree rank were introduced recently in the context of the model checking problem for first-order logic of graphs. These graph classes are a common generalization of graph classes of bounded degree and bounded…

Let $K\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ be the unique attractor of an iterated function system. We consider the case where $K$ is an interval and study those elements of $K$ with a unique coding. We prove under mild conditions that the set of points…

We establish weak-type $(1,1)$ bounds for the maximal function associated with ergodic averaging operators modeled on a wide class of thin deterministic sets $B$. As a corollary we obtain the corresponding pointwise convergence result on…

Methods for proving functional limit laws are developed for sequences of stochastic processes which allow a recursive distributional decomposition either in time or space. Our approach is an extension of the so-called contraction method to…

Our main result states that for each finite complex L the category ${\bf TOP}$ of topological spaces possesses a model category structure (in the sense of Quillen) whose weak equivalences are precisely maps which induce isomorphisms of all…

The inclusion of 1-categories into $(\infty,1)$-categories fails to preserve colimits in general, and pushouts in particular. In this note, we observe that if one functor in a span of categories belongs to a certain previously-identified…

We establish that a mode-coupling approximation for the dynamics of multi-component systems obeying Smoluchowski dynamics preserves a subtle yet fundamental property: the matrices of partial density correlation functions are completely…

We give a simple order-theoretic construction of a Cartesian closed category of sequential functions. It is based on bistable biorders, which are sets with a partial order -- the extensional order -- and a bistable coherence, which captures…

Let $Ham (M,\omega ) $ denote the Frechet Lie group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of a monotone symplectic manifold $(M, \omega) $. Let $NFuk (M, \omega)$ be the $A _{\infty} $-nerve of the Fukaya category $Fuk (M, \omega)$, and let…

Using Harish-Chandra induction and restriction, we construct a categorical action of a Kac-Moody algebra on the category of unipotent representations of finite unitary groups in non-defining characteristic. We show that the decategorified…

Given a symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$ and a left adjoint symmetric monoidal fiber functor to $\operatorname{Mod}_A^{\otimes}$ for some $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-ring $A$, one can construct a derived group scheme $G$…

Building on the univariate techniques developed by Ray and Schmidt-Hieber, we study the class $\mathcal{F}^s(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of multivariate nonnegative smooth functions that are sufficiently flat near their zeroes, which guarantees that…
