Let X be a normal variety such that $K_X$ is Q-Cartier, and let $f: X \rightarrow X$ be a finite surjective morphism of degree at least two. We establish a close relation between the irreducible components of the locus of singularities that…
In this paper, we state the notion of morphisms in the category of abelian crossed modules and prove that this category is equivalent to the category of strict Picard categories and regular symmetric monoidal functors. The theory of…
We discuss the problem of the existence of envelopes of holomorphy of the A-crosses, which leads us to the far-reaching generalizations of the famous Hartogs theorem. We also take under consideration the issue of the existence of "nice"…
We discover a class of projective self-dual algebraic varieties. Namely, we consider actions of isotropy groups of complex symmetric spaces on the projectivized nilpotent varieties of isotropy modules. For them, we classify all orbit…
A category is adhesive if it has all pullbacks, all pushouts along monomorphisms, and all exactness conditions between pullbacks and pushouts along monomorphisms which hold in a topos. This condition can be modified by considering only…
We classify the module categories over the double (possibly twisted) of a finite group.
A natural extension of the Hopf-cyclic cohomology, with coefficients, is introduced to encompass topological Hopf algebras. The topological theory allows to work with infinite dimensional Lie algebras. Furthermore, the category of…
In this note we introduce higher order polar loci as natural generalizations of the classical polar loci, replacing the role of tangent spaces by that of higher order osculating spaces. The close connection between polar loci and dual…
Duality for complete discrete valuation fields with perfect residue field with coefficients in (possibly p-torsion) finite flat group schemes was obtained by Begueri, Bester and Kato. In this paper, we give another formulation and proof of…
In this note we classify simply connected rationally elliptic compact toric orbifolds up to algebraic isomorphism.
The Morita context provided by an exact module category over a finite tensor category gives a two-object bicategory with duals. Right and left duals of objects in the module category are given by internal Homs and coHoms, respectively. We…
Let $f \colon X \to Y$ be a morphism of concentrated schemes. We characterize $f$-perfect complexes $\mathcal{E}$ as those such that the functor $\mathcal{E} \otimes^{\mathbf{L}}_X \mathbf{L} f^*-$ preserves bounded complexes. We prove, as…
We provide a simple natural duality for the varieties generated by the negation- and implication- free reduct of a finite MV-chain. We study these varieties through the dual equivalence thus obtained. For example, we fully characterize…
These course note first provide an introduction to secondary characteristic classes and differential cohomology. They continue with a presentation of a stable homotopy theoretic approach to the theory of differential extensions of…
We classify pro-$p$ Poincar\'e duality pairs in dimension two. We then use this classification to build a pro-$p$ analogue of the curve complex and establish its basic properties. We conclude with some statements concerning separability…
We advocate an account of dualities between physical theories: the basic idea is that dual theories are isomorphic representations of a common core. We defend and illustrate this account, which we call a Schema, in relation to symmetries.…
Virtual double categories provide an effective framework for formal category theory. Recent work has investigated the question of higher morphisms between virtual double categories, following on from work on higher morphisms between double…
The distributive property can be studied through bilinear maps and various morphisms between these maps. The adjoint-morphisms between bilinear maps establish a complete abelian category with projectives and admits a duality. Thus the…
We describe some of the basic properties of the 2-category of 2-term complexes in an abelian category, using butterflies as morphisms.
We state a number of conjectures that together allow one to classify a broad class of del Pezzo surfaces with cyclic quotient singularities using mirror symmetry. We prove our conjectures in the simplest cases. The conjectures relate…
