Seely's paper "Locally cartesian closed categories and type theory" contains a well-known result in categorical type theory: that the category of locally cartesian closed categories is equivalent to the category of Martin-L\"of type…

We define and develop the infrastructure of homotopical inverse diagrams in categories with attributes. Specifically, given a category with attributes $C$ and an ordered homotopical inverse category $I$, we construct the category with…

These notes contain a brief introduction to rational homotopy theory: its model category foundations, the Sullivan model and interactions with the theory of local commutative rings.

We present a development of the theory of higher groups, including infinity groups and connective spectra, in homotopy type theory. An infinity group is simply the loops in a pointed, connected type, where the group structure comes from the…

Given a functor $\varphi : \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}$ between two small categories, there is a homotopy equivalence $\kappa: hocolim _{\mathcal{D}} N(\varphi /-) \to N\mathcal{C}$ where $N(\varphi/-)$ is the functor which sends every…

We develop the notion of deformation of a morphism in a left-proper model category. As an application we provide a geometric/homotopic description of deformations of commutative (non-positively) graded differential algebras over a local…

This paper corrects a small mistake in a paper of Dwyer-Kan, and uses this to identify homotopy function complexes in a model category with the nerves of certain categories of zig-zags.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of bi-homotopy between subsets of continuous functions. A map $\phi$ from $A$ to $B$ is called an $h$-map if, for each two homotopic maps $f, g\in A$, their image (i.e., $\phi(f), \phi(g)$) are…

The notion of a homotopy flow on a directed space was introduced in \cite{Raussen:07} as a coherent tool for comparing spaces of directed paths between pairs of points in that space with each other. If all parameter directed maps preserve…

We survey research on the homotopy theory of the space map(X, Y) consisting of all continuous functions between two topological spaces. We summarize progress on various classification problems for the homotopy types represented by the…

Algebraic theories with dependency between sorts form the structural core of Martin-L\"of type theory and similar systems. Their denotational semantics are typically studied using categorical techniques; many different categorical…

Shulman's spatial type theory internalizes the modalities of Lawvere's axiomatic cohesion in a homotopy type theory, enabling many of the constructions from Schreiber's modal approach to differential cohomology to be carried out…

Polynomial functors are useful in the theory of data types, where they are often called containers. They are also useful in algebra, combinatorics, topology, and higher category theory, and in this broader perspective the polynomial aspect…

We describe a construction that to each algebraically specified notion of higher-dimensional category associates a notion of homomorphism which preserves the categorical structure only up to weakly invertible higher cells. The construction…

The goal of this paper is to address the problem of building a path object for the category of Grothendieck (weak) $\infty$-groupoids. This is the missing piece for a proof of Grothendieck's homotopy hypothesis. We show how to endow the…

Covering spaces are a fundamental tool in algebraic topology because of the close relationship they bear with the fundamental groups of spaces. Indeed, they are in correspondence with the subgroups of the fundamental group: this is known as…

Given an algebraic theory $\ct$, a homotopy $\ct$-algebra is a simplicial set where all equations from $\ct$ hold up to homotopy. All homotopy $\ct$-algebras form a homotopy variety. We give a characterization of homotopy varieties…

Many important theorems in differential topology relate properties of manifolds to properties of their underlying homotopy types -- defined e.g. using the total singular complex or the \v{C}ech nerve of a good open cover. Upon embedding the…

In proper homotopy theory, the original concept of point used in the classical homotopy theory of topological spaces is generalized in order to obtain homotopy groups that study the infinite of the spaces. This idea: "Using any arbitrary…
