We study classes of modules closed under direct sums, $\mathcal{M}$-submodules and $\mathcal{M}$-epimorphic images where $\mathcal{M}$ is either the class of embeddings, $RD$-embeddings or pure embeddings. We show that the…
We prove that an abelian category equipped with an ample sequence of objects is equivalent to the quotient of the category of coherent modules over the corresponding algebra by the subcategory of finite-dimensional modules. In the…
It is well known that any model for derived manifolds must form a higher category. In this paper, we propose a universal property for this higher category, classifying it up to equivalence. Namely, the $\infty$-category $\mathbf{DMfd}$ of…
We prove smoothness in the dg sense of the bounded derived category of finitely generated modules over any finite-dimensional algebra over a perfect field, hereby answering a question of Iyama. More generally, we prove this statement for…
For a semisimple multiring category with left duals, we prove that the unit object is simple if and only if the tensor functors by any non-zero algebra are separable (resp. faithful, resp. Maschke, resp. dual Maschke, resp. conservative).…
We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an essentially small abelian category. We prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ admits a generator $M$ with ${\rm End}_{\mathcal{A}}(M)$ right artinian, then $\mathcal{A}$ admits a projective generator. If $\mathcal{A}$ is…
We prove that the derived category of a Grothendieck abelian category has a unique dg enhancement. Under some additional assumptions, we show that the same result holds true for its subcategory of compact objects. As a consequence, we…
In this paper we introduce and investigate the notion of semiseparable functor. One of its first features is that it allows a novel description of separable and naturally full functors in terms of faithful and full functors, respectively.…
Let $R$, $S$ be two rings, $C$ an $R$-coring and ${}_{R}^C{\mathcal M}$ the category of left $C$-comodules. The category ${\bf Rep}\, ( {}_{R}^C{\mathcal M}, {}_{S}{\mathcal M} )$ of all representable functors ${}_{R}^C{\mathcal M} \to…
We prove that the number of parameters defining a complex of projective modules over a finite dimensional algebra is upper semi-continuous in families of algebras. Supposing that every algebra is either derived tame or derived wild, we get…
We call a finitely complete category algebraically coherent when the change-of-base functors of its fibration of points are coherent, which means that they preserve finite limits and jointly strongly epimorphic pairs of arrows. We give…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring. We prove that the class of modules of projective dimension bounded by $k$ is of finite type if and only if $R$ satisfies Serre's condition $(S_k)$. In particular, this answers positively a question…
We prove that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves with proper support is equivalent to the category of locally-finite, cohomological functors on the perfect derived category of a quasi-projective scheme over a field. We…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$--module. Let $t$ be a non-negative integer such that $\H^i_\fa(M)$ is $\fa$--cofinite for all $i<t$. It is well--known that…
We prove that exact functors between the categories of perfect complexes supported on projective schemes are of Fourier--Mukai type if the functor satisfies a condition weaker than being fully faithful. We also get generalizations of the…
For a commutative noetherian ring $R$, we classify all the hereditary cotorsion pairs cogenerated by pure-injective modules of finite injective dimension. The classification is done in terms of integer-valued functions on the spectrum of…
The complex numbers are an important part of quantum theory, but are difficult to motivate from a theoretical perspective. We describe a simple formal framework for theories of physics, and show that if a theory of physics presented in this…
We survey the basics of homological algebra in exact categories in the sense of Quillen. All diagram lemmas are proved directly from the axioms, notably the five lemma, the 3 x 3-lemma and the snake lemma. We briefly discuss exact functors,…
Let $R$ be a finite dimensional $k$-algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $\mathrm{mod} R$ be the category of all finitely generated left $R$-modules. For a given full subcategory $\mathcal{X}$ of $\mathrm{mod} R,$ we denote by…
