This article tackles categorical coherence within a two-dimensional generalization of Lawvere's functorial semantics. 2-theories, a syntactical way of describing categories with structure, are presented. From the perspective here afforded,…

In the present work we define and study the classifying (or "quotient") site $[X/\Sigma]$ for any small site $X$ with (countable) coproducts endowed with an action of a (countable) semigroup $\Sigma$. A simple case (the most relevant to our…

We study (pre-)sheaves in bicategories on geometric categories: smooth manifolds, manifolds with a Lie group action and Lie groupoids. We present three main results: we describe equivariant descent, we generalize the plus construction to…

In this article, we derive many properties of \'etale stacks in various contexts, and prove that \'etale stacks may be characterized categorically as those stacks that arise as prolongations of stacks on a site of spaces and local…

We study two actions of big mapping class groups. The first is an action by isometries on a Gromov-hyperbolic graph. The second is an action by homeomorphisms on a circle in which the vertices of the graph naturally embed. The first two…

We prove a structure result on proper extensions of two-sided restriction semigroups in terms of partial actions, generalizing respective results for monoids and for inverse semigroups and upgrading the latter. We introduce and study…

We prove that for $d\ge 2,\, k\ge 2$, if the Hausdorff dimension of a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is greater than $\frac{d^2}{2d-1}$, then, for any given $r > 0$, there exist $(x^1, \dots, x^{k+1})\in E^{k+1}$, $(y^1, \dots,…

A 2-group is a `categorified' version of a group, in which the underlying set G has been replaced by a category and the multiplication map m: G x G -> G has been replaced by a functor. A number of precise definitions of this notion have…

An action of a topological semigroup S on X is compactifiable if this action is a restriction of a jointly continuous action of S on a Hausdorff compact space Y. A topological semigroup S is compactifiable if the left action of S on itself…

In this paper we deal with Grothendieck's interpretation of Artin's interpretation of Galois's Galois Theory (and its natural relation with the fundamental group and the theory of coverings) as he developed it in Expose V, section 4,…

The notion of a semitransitive binary action of a group $G$ on a topological space is introduced. A duality theorem is proved, establishing a bijective correspondence between semitransitive distributive binary $G$-spaces and topological…

We initiate the study of sheaves on Cech closure spaces, providing a new, unified approach to sheaf theory on many of the major classes of spaces of interest to applications: topological spaces, finite simplicial complexes (seen as $T_0$…

In this short note, for countably infinite amenable group actions, we provide topological proofs for the following results: Bowen topological entropy (dimensional entropy) of the whole space equals the usual topological entropy along…

Homotopy comomentum maps are a higher generalization of the notion of moment map introduced to extend the concept of Hamiltonian actions to the framework of multisymplectic geometry. Loosely speaking, higher means passing from considering…

We define a monoidal category $\operatorname{\mathbf{W}}$ and a closely related 2-category $\operatorname{\mathbf{2Weyl}}$ using diagrammatic methods. We show that $\operatorname{\mathbf{2Weyl}}$ acts on the category $\mathbf{TL}…

The atoms of the Schanuel topos can be described as the pairs $(n,G)$ where $n$ is a finite set and $G$ is a subgroup of $\operatorname{Aut}(n)$. We give a general criterion on an atomic site ensuring that the atoms of the topos of sheaves…

A group action is said to be highly-transitive if it is $k$-transitive for every $k \ge 1$. The main result of this thesis is the following: Main Theorem: The fundamental group of a closed, orientable surface of genus > 1 admits a…

In this paper we introduce a generalisation of a covariant Grothendieck construction to the setting of sites. We study the basic properties of defined site structures on Grothendieck constructions as well as we treat the cohomological…

We prove that for a self-injective ribbon Grothendieck-Verdier category $\mathcal{C}$ in the sense of Boyarchenko-Drinfeld the cyclic action on the Hochschild complex of $\mathcal{C}$ extends to an action of the diffeomorphism group of the…

In this paper, we go into the study of the 2-category SSS_\Sigma of \Sigma-constructible stacks. The notions of constructible stack was introduced by D. Treumann. It is a natural generalization of constructible sheaf. D. Treumann has also…
