\emph{Proto-exact categories}, introduced by Dyckerhoff and Kapranov, are a generalization of Quillen exact categories which provide a framework for defining algebraic K-theory and Hall algebras in a \emph{non-additive} setting. This…
We introduce a scheme-theoretic enrichment of the principal objects of tropical geometry. Using a category of semiring schemes, we construct tropical hypersurfaces as schemes over idempotent semirings such as $\mathbb{T} = (\mathbb{R}\cup…
The tropical semifield, i.e., the real numbers enhanced by the operations of addition and maximum, serves as a base of tropical mathematics. Addition is an abelian group operation, whereas the maximum defines an idempotent semigroup…
In fairly elementary terms this paper presents, and expands upon, a recent result by Garner by which the notion of topologicity of a concrete functor is subsumed under the concept of total cocompleteness of enriched category theory.…
Categories enriched over a commutative unital quantale can be studied as generalized, or many-valued, ordered structures. Because many concepts, such as complete distributivity, in lattice theory can be characterized by existence of certain…
Applying (enriched) categorical structures we define the notion of ordered sheaf on a quantaloid Q, which we call `Q-order'. This requires a theory of semicategories enriched in the quantaloid Q, that admit a suitable Cauchy completion.…
We collect in one place a variety of known and folklore results in enriched model category theory and add a few new twists. The central theme is a general procedure for constructing a Quillen adjunction, often a Quillen equivalence, between…
We prove that the category of quasi-pseudometric modular spaces whose morphisms are the nonexpansive mappings is isomorphic to a quantale enriched category. To achieve this, we construct an appropriate quantale of isotone functions. We also…
By introducing the concept of quantaloidal completions for an order-enriched category, relationships between the category of quantaloids and the category of order-enriched categories are studied. It is proved that quantaloidal completions…
The goal of this article is to emphasize the role of cubical sets in enriched categories theory and infinity-categories theory. We show in particular that categories enriched in cubical sets provide a convenient way to describe many…
For any small quantaloid $\Q$, there is a new quantaloid $\D(\Q)$ of diagonals in $\Q$. If $\Q$ is divisible then so is $\D(\Q)$ (and vice versa), and then it is particularly interesting to compare categories enriched in $\Q$ with…
We present a theory of lattice-enriched semirings, called quantic semirings, which generalize both quantales and powersets of hyperrings. Using these structures, we show how to recover the spectrum of a Krasner hyperring (and in particular,…
Drawing on well-known results from the theory of canonical extensions and the theory of categories enriched over a quantale, we define canonical extensions of quantale-enriched categories and establish their basic properties.
We initiate the theory of a quadratic form $q$ over a semiring $R$. As customary, one can write $$q(x+y) = q(x) + q(y)+ b(x,y),$$ where $b$ is a companion bilinear form. But in contrast to the ring-theoretic case, the companion bilinear…
This paper introduces a new structure of commutative semiring, generalizing the tropical semiring, and having an arithmetic that modifies the standard tropical operations, i.e. summation and maximum. Although our framework is combinatorial,…
We define the notion of an additive model category, and we prove that any additive, stable, combinatorial model category has a natural enrichment over symmetric spectra based on simplicial abelian groups. As a consequence, every object in…
We study the subgroup structure of the semigroup of finitary tropical matrices under multiplication. We show that every maximal subgroup is isomorphic to the full linear automorphism group of a related tropical polytope, and that each of…
We develop notions of valuations on a semiring, with a view toward extending the classical theory of abstract nonsingular curves and discrete valuation rings to this general algebraic setting; the novelty of our approach lies in the…
In this dissertation we examine enrichment relations between categories of dual structure and we sketch an abstract framework where the theory of fibrations and enriched category theory are appropriately united. We initially work in the…
We continue, in this second article, the study of the the algebraic tools which play a role in tropical algebra. We especially examine here the polynomial algebras over idempotent semi-fields. this work is motivated by the development of…
