In this paper we show that any $\mathbb{A}^2$-fibration over a discrete valuation ring which is also an $\mathbb{A}^2$-form is necessarily a polynomial ring. Further we show that separable $\mathbb{A}^2$-forms over PIDs are trivial.
The main aim of this note is to prove a sharp Poincar\'e-type inequality for vector-valued functions on $\mathbb{S}^2$, that naturally emerges in the context of micromagnetics of spherical thin films.
We study fibrations arising from indexed categories of the following form: fix two categories $\mathcal{A},\mathcal{X}$ and a functor $F : \mathcal{A} \times \mathcal{X} \longrightarrow\mathcal{X} $, so that to each $F_A=F(A,-)$ one can…
We construct a 2-category of differential graded schemes. The local affine models in this theory are differential graded algebras, which are graded commutative with unit over a field of characteristic zero, are concentrated in non-positive…
A closed symmetric differential of the 1st kind is a differential that locally is the product of closed holomorphic 1-forms. We show that closed symmetric 2-differentials of the 1st kind on a projective manifold $X$ come from maps of $X$ to…
We consider quadric surface fibrations over curves, defined over algebraically closed and finite fields. Our goal is to understand, in geometric terms, spaces of sections for such fibrations. We analyze varieties of maximal isotropic…
We characterize general pseudo-harmonic morphisms from a Riemannian manifold to a Hermitian manifold as pseudo horizontally weakly conformal maps with an additional property. We study to what extent we can (locally) describe these…
The notion of 2-framed three-manifolds is defined. The category of 2-framed cobordisms is described, and used to define a 2-framed three-dimensional TQFT. Using skeletonization and special features of this category, a small set of data and…
Grothendieck's theory of fibred categories establishes an equivalence between fibred categories and pseudo functors. It plays a major role in algebraic geometry and categorical logic. This paper aims to show that fibrations are also very…
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,…
2-stratifolds are a generalization of 2-manifolds in that there are disjoint simple closed curves where several sheets meet. They arise in the study of categorical invariants of 3-manifolds and may have applications to topological data…
Two-dimensional sigma-models describing superstrings propagating on manifolds of special holonomy are characterized by symmetries related to covariantly constant forms that these manifolds hold, which are generally non-linear and close in a…
In 1997, Hofmann and Streicher introduced an explicit construction to lift a Grothendieck universe from the category of sets into the category of set-valued presheaves on a small category. More recently, Awodey presented an elegant…
In the first part of this paper we study fibrations of $(\infty,2)$-categories. We give a simple characterization of such fibrations in terms of a certain square being a pullback, and apply this to show that in some cases…
We provide a semiorthogonal decomposition for the derived category of fibrations of quintic del Pezzo surfaces with rational Gorenstein singularities. There are three components, two of which are equivalent to the derived categories of the…
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…
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. In Part 1 we introduce a new theory of operadic categories and their operads. This theory is, in our opinion, of an independent value. In Part 2 we use this new theory together with our previous…
Extending the investigations about the theory of duals, we analyze duals built up with the aid of discrete symmetry operators. We scrutinize algebraic and physical constraints (encompassing them in a theoretical scope) in order to verify…
This paper is a detailed study of finite-dimensional modules defined on bicomplex numbers. A number of results are proved on bicomplex square matrices, linear operators, orthogonal bases, self-adjoint operators and Hilbert spaces, including…
We study the existence problem and the enumeration problem for sections of Serre fibrations over compact orientable surfaces. When the fundamental group of the fiber is finite, a complete solution is given in terms of 2-dimensional…
