Drawing inspiration from Emmy Noether'set-theoretic foundations for algebra and Charles Ehresmann's topology without points, we adopt a new order-theoretic approach to ideal theory. For this we emphasize the order of divisibility in…

I investigate modal group theory for arbitrary homomorphisms. Possibility is interpreted by the existence of a group homomorphism out of the given group, so the semantics is governed by the possibility of collapse: elements may be…

We prove the exactness of the reduction map from \'etale $(\phi,\Gamma)$-modules over completed localized group rings of compact open subgroups of unipotent $p$-adic algebraic groups to usual \'etale $(\phi,\Gamma)$-modules over Fontaine's…

We classify the propositional modal validities arising from the category of sets under its natural classes of morphisms. The resulting validities depend on the morphism class, the size of the world, and the permitted substitution instances.…

We characterize the class of homotopy pull-back squares by means of elementary closure properties. The so called Puppe theorem which identifies the homotopy fiber of certain maps constructed as homotopy colimits is a straightforward…

Orbits of automorphism groups of partially ordered sets are not necessarily congruence classes, i.e. images of an order homomorphism. Based on so-called orbit categories a framework of factorisations and unfoldings is developed that…

We construct an algebraic weak factorization system $(L, R)$ on the cartesian cubical sets, in which the canonical path object factorization $A \to A^I \to A\times A$ induced by the 1-cube $I$ is an $L$-$R$ factorization for any $R$-object…

For rings R with identity, we define a class of nonlinear higher order recurrences on unitary left R-modules that include linear recurrences as special cases. We obtain conditions under which a recurrence of order k+1 in this class is…

We develop a model-theoretic framework for the study of distal factors of strongly ergodic, measure-preserving dynamical systems of countable groups. Our main result is that all such factors are contained in the (existential) algebraic…

Grothendieck duality theory assigns to essentially-finite-type maps f of noetherian schemes a pseudofunctor f^\times right-adjoint to Rf_*, and a pseudofunctor f^! agreeing with f^\times when f is proper, but equal to the usual inverse…

We prove that one can realize certain triangulated subcategories of the singularity category of a complete intersection as homotopy categories of matrix factorizations. Moreover, we prove that for any commutative ring and non-zerodivisor,…

Model categories have long been a useful tool in homotopy theory, allowing many generalizations of results in topological spaces to other categories. Giving a localization of a model category provides an additional model category structure…

We study matrix factorizations of locally free coherent sheaves on a scheme. For a scheme that is projective over an affine scheme, we show that homomorphisms in the homotopy category of matrix factorizations may be computed as the…

We introduce a new approach to an enumerative problem closely linked with the geometry of branched coverings; that is, we study the number of ways a permutation can be decomposed into a product of a given number of 2-cycles, 3-cycles, etc.…

We establish a unified group-theoretic framework bridging the arithmetic homotopy exact sequence of a variety and the Birman exact sequence of a surface. Within this framework, we reinterpret classical arithmetic notions - such as the…

We give a new formulation of Turing reducibility in terms of higher modalities, inspired by an embedding of the Turing degrees in the lattice of subtoposes of the effective topos discovered by Hyland. In this definition, higher modalities…

We give several related versions of global Grothendieck Duality for unbounded complexes on noetherian formal schemes. The proofs, based on a non-trivial adaptation of Deligne's method for the special case of ordinary schemes, are reasonably…

Given a reflection group $G$ acting on a complex vector space $V$, a reflection map is the composition of an embedding $X \hookrightarrow V$ with the orbit map $V\to\mathbb C^p$ that maps a $G$-orbit to a point. Reflection maps can be very…

Let $T$ be an infinitely generated tilting module of projective dimension at most one over an arbitrary associative ring $A$, and let $B$ be the endomorphism ring of $T$. In this paper, we prove that if $T$ is good then there exists a ring…

The notion of a natural model of type theory is defined in terms of that of a representable natural transfomation of presheaves. It is shown that such models agree exactly with the concept of a category with families in the sense of Dybjer,…
