Category theory is the language of homological algebra, allowing us to state broadly applicable theorems and results without needing to specify the details for every instance of analogous objects. However, authors often stray from the realm…
In [BaSc2], the author and Tomer Schlank introduced a much weaker homotopical structure than a model category, which we called a "weak cofibration category". We further showed that a small weak cofibration category induces in a natural way…
Homotopical localizations with respect to a set of maps are known to exist in cofibrantly generated model categories (satisfying additional assumptions). In this paper we expand the existing framework, so that it will apply to not…
In this short expository note, we discuss, with plenty of examples, the bestiary of fibrations in quasicategory theory. We underscore the simplicity and clarity of the constructions these fibrations make available to end-users of higher…
For any essentially small triangulated category the centre of its lattice of thick subcategories is introduced; it is a spatial frame and yields a notion of central support. A relative version of this centre recovers the support theory for…
Since categories are graphs with additional "structure", one should start from fuzzy graphs in order to define a theory of fuzzy categories. Thus is makes sense to introduce categories whose morphisms are associated with a plausibility…
We introduce a notion of globular multicategory with homomorphism types. These structures arise when organizing collections of "higher category-like" objects such as type theories with identity types. We show how these globular…
In this paper we put a cofibrantly generated model category structure on the category of small simplicial categories. The weak equivalences are a simplicial analogue of the notion of equivalence of categories.
Presentations of categories are a well-known algebraic tool to provide descriptions of categories by means of generators, for objects and morphisms, and relations on morphisms. We generalize here this notion, in order to consider situations…
We propose a generalization of Categorial Grammar in which lexical categories are defined by means of recursive constraints. In particular, the introduction of relational constraints allows one to capture the effects of (recursive) lexical…
We study, in an abstract axiomatic setting, the notion of sectional category of a morphism. From this, we unify and generalize known results about this invariant in different settings as well as we deduce new applications.
We construct recursion categories from categories of coalgebras. Let $F$ be a nontrivial endofunctor on the category of sets that weakly preserves pullbacks and such that the category $\textbf{Set}_F$ of $F$-coalgebras is complete. The…
Category Theory provides us with a clear notion of what is an internal structure. This will allow us to focus our attention on a certain type of relationship between context and structure.
Starting from the varietal notion of syntactic equivalence relation, we generalized it to a categorical concept; namely Equ-saturating category. We produce various examples and focuse our attention on the protomodular context in which any…
In this thesis we define the notion of a locally stratified space. Locally stratified spaces are particular kinds of streams and d-spaces which are locally modelled on stratified spaces. We construct a locally presentable and cartesian…
We describe a number of geometric contexts where categorification appears naturally: coherent sheaves, constructible sheaves and sheaves of modules over quantizations. In each case, we discuss how "index formulas" allow us to easily perform…
Lenses, optics and dependent lenses (or equivalently morphisms of containers, or equivalently natural transformations of polynomial functors) are all widely used in applied category theory as models of bidirectional processes. From the…
A subunit in a monoidal category is a subobject of the monoidal unit for which a canonical morphism is invertible. They correspond to open subsets of a base topological space in categories such as those of sheaves or Hilbert modules. We…
In this paper, we propose an abstract definition of dependent type theories as essentially algebraic theories. One of the main advantages of this definition is its composability: simple theories can be combined into more complex ones, and…
Let k be a commutative ring with unit. We endow the categories of filtered complexes and of bicomplexes of k-modules, with cofibrantly generated model structures, where the class of weak equivalences is given by those morphisms inducing a…
