We study a variation of Turaev's homotopy quantum field theories using 2-categories of surfaces. We define the homotopy surface 2-category of a space $X$ and define an $\cS_X$-structure to be a monoidal 2-functor from this to the 2-category…
We produce a fully faithful functor from finite type nilpotent spaces to cosimplicial binomial rings, thus giving an algebraic model of integral homotopy types. As an application, we construct an integral version of the…
We suggest an ordering for the predicates in continuous logic so that the semantics of continuous logic can be formulated as a hyperdoctrine. We show that this hyperdoctrine can be embedded into the hyperdoctrine of subobjects of a suitable…
The Univalent Foundations requires a logic that allows us to define structures on homotopy types, similar to how first-order logic with equality ($\text{FOL}_=$) allows us to define structures on sets. We develop the syntax, semantics and…
After introducing some motivations for this survey, we describe a formalism to parametrize a wide class of algebraic structures occurring naturally in various problems of topology, geometry and mathematical physics. This allows us to define…
We propose an abstract notion of a type theory to unify the semantics of various type theories including Martin-L\"{o}f type theory, two-level type theory and cubical type theory. We establish basic results in the semantics of type theory:…
In this paper one considers three homotopy functors on the category of manifolds, $hH^\ast, cH^\ast, sH^\ast,$ and parallel them with other three homotopy functors on the category of connected commutative differential graded algebras,…
As several different formal systems with inequivalent syntax may describe equivalent semantics, it is possible to find `completions' to more expressive syntaxes that are semantically invariant. Doctrine theory, in the sense of Lawvere, is…
In the first part, we further advance the study of category theory in a strong balanced factorization category C [Pisani, 2008], a finitely complete category endowed with two reciprocally stable factorization systems such that X \to 1 is in…
We construct a left semi-model structure on the category of intensional type theories (precisely, on $\mathrm{CxlCat_{Id,1,\Sigma(,\Pi_{ext})}}$). This presents an $\infty$-category of such type theories; we show moreover that there is an…
Considering classical first-order logic with equality, we give a "fully syntactic" construction of the (weak) syntactic category $\text{Syn}(T)$ associated to a consistent theory $T$; we show it is a consistent coherent category; and we…
Homotopy type theory is a new branch of mathematics, based on a recently discovered connection between homotopy theory and type theory, which brings new ideas into the very foundation of mathematics. On the one hand, Voevodsky's subtle and…
Motivated by the work of of A. Zelevinsky on positive self-adjoint Hopf algebras, we define what we call a symmetric self-adjoint Hopf structure for a certain kind of semisimple abelian categories. It is known that every positive…
Given a suitable functor T:C -> D between model categories, we define a long exact sequence relating the homotopy groups of any X in C with those of TX, and use this to describe an obstruction theory for lifting an object G in D to C.…
For a complete and cocomplete category $\mathcal{C}$ with a well-behaved class of `projectives' $\bar{\mathcal{P}}$, we construct a model structure on the category $s\mathcal{C}$ of simplicial objects in $\mathcal{C}$ where the weak…
We prove analogues of model theory results for $\mathcal{C}\to \mathcal{D}$ coherent functors, including variants of the omitting types theorem and some results on ultraproduct constructions. We introduce a distributive lattice valued…
In this article, we develop a new model for the category of dg-categories. Following Rezk's example in the case of classic Segal spaces, we define dg-Segal spaces: functors between free dg-categories of finite type and simplicial spaces to…
We define a topological Hochschild (THH) and cyclic (TC) homology theory for differential graded (dg) categories and construct several non-trivial natural transformations from algebraic K-theory to THH(-). In an intermediate step, we prove…
We develop category theory within Univalent Foundations, which is a foundational system for mathematics based on a homotopical interpretation of dependent type theory. In this system, we propose a definition of "category" for which equality…
Many formal languages of contemporary mathematical music theory -- particularly those employing category theory -- are powerful but cumbersome: ideas that are conceptually simple frequently require expression through elaborate categorical…
