We investigate the notion of involutive weak globular $\omega$-categories via T.Leinster's approach: as algebras for the initial contracted globular operad in the bicategory of globular collections induced by the Cartesian monad of the free…

We describe a homotopical version of the relational and gluing models of type theory, and generalize it to inverse diagrams and oplax limits. Our method uses the Reedy homotopy theory on inverse diagrams, and relies on the fact that Reedy…

Higher category theory is an exceedingly active area of research, whose rapid growth has been driven by its penetration into a diverse range of scientific fields. Its influence extends through key mathematical disciplines, notably homotopy…

There are several ways to construct omega-categories from combinatorial objects such as pasting schemes or parity complexes. We make these constructions into a functor on a category of chain complexes with additional structure, which we…

We extend the Dong-Mason theorem on the irreducibility of modules for orbifold vertex algebras from [C. Dong, G. Mason, Duke Math. J. 86 (1997)] 305-321] for the category of weak modules. Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra, $g$ an…

We extend the theory of complex cells introduced by Binyamini and Novikov to the sharply o-minimal setting, obtaining cellular preparation and parameterization theorems which are polynomially effective in the degrees of the relevant sets.…

Symmetric monoidal theories (SMTs) generalise algebraic theories in a way that make them suitable to express resource-sensitive systems, in which variables cannot be copied or discarded at will. In SMTs, traditional tree-like terms are…

In this article we introduce the notion of cubical $(\omega,p)$-categories, for $p \in \mathbb N \cup \{\omega\}$. We show that the equivalence between globular and groupoid $\omega$-categories proven by Al-Agl, Brown and Steiner induces an…

Many definitions of weak and strict $\infty$-categories have been proposed. In this paper we present a definition for $\infty$-categories with strict associators, but which is otherwise fully weak. Our approach is based on the existing type…

In this paper we consider refined geometric characterizations of weak $p$-quasiconformal mappings $\varphi:\Omega\to\widetilde{\Omega}$, where $\Omega$ and $\widetilde{\Omega}$ are domains in $\mathbb R^n$. We prove that mappings with the…

We study the dependent type theory CaTT, introduced by Finster and Mimram, which presents the theory of weak $\omega$-categories, following the idea that type theories can be considered as presentations of generalized algebraic theories.…

In this work, we relate the three main formalisms for the notion of pasting diagram in strict $\omega$-categories: Street's parity complexes, Johnson's pasting schemes and Steiner's augmented directed complexes. In the process, we show that…

We study point sets arising from cut-and-project constructions. An important class is weak model sets, which include squarefree numbers and visible lattice points. For such model sets, we give a non-trivial upper bound on their pattern…

We introduce a notion of a filtered model structure and use this notion to produce various model structures on pro-categories. This framework generalizes several known examples. We give several examples, including a homotopy theory for…
