This paper studies fundamental questions concerning category-theoretic models of induction and recursion. We are concerned with the relationship between well-founded and recursive coalgebras for an endofunctor. For monomorphism preserving…

Categories can be identified -- up to isomorphism -- with polynomial comonads on Set. The left Kan extension of a functor along itself is always a comonad -- called the density comonad -- so it defines a category when its carrier is…

We study polynomial functors in the incompressible category $\text{Ver}_4^+$, which can be viewed as super polynomial functors in characteristic 2. Concretely, we classify additive, exact and simple polynomial functors, and describe how…

We study finite $p$-subgroups of birational automorphism groups. By virtue of boundedness theorem of Fano varieties, we prove that there exists a constant $R(n)$ such that a rationally connected variety of dimension $n$ over an…

An adjoint pair of contravariant functors between abelian categories can be extended to the adjoint pair of their derived functors in the associated derived categories. We describe the reflexive complexes and interpret the achieved results…

If $D$ is a Reedy category and $M$ is a model category, the category $M^{D}$ of $D$-diagrams in $M$ is a model category under the Reedy model category structure. If $C \to D$ is a Reedy functor between Reedy categories, then there is an…

We show that for any integer n and any field k of characteristic different from 2 there are at most finitely many isomorphism classes of quadratic morphisms from the projective line over k to itself with a finite postcritical orbit of size…

Let $X$ be a projective variety admitting a polarized (or more generally, int-amplified) endomorphism. We show: there are only finitely many contractible extremal rays; and when $X$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial normal, every minimal model…

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…

In fairly elementary terms this paper presents, and expands upon, a recent result by Garner by which the notion of topologicity of a concrete functor is subsumed under the concept of total cocompleteness of enriched category theory.…

A functor of sets $\mathbb X$ over the category of $K$-commutative algebras is said to be an affine functor if its functor of functions, $\mathbb A_{\mathbb X}$, is reflexive and $\mathbb X=\Spec \mathbb A_{\mathbb X}$. We prove that affine…

In this note, we discuss several aspects of the functoriality of universal abelian factorizations associated to representations of quivers into abelian categories. After recalling the general construction of universal abelian…

In a recent paper [3], the authors introduced a map $\mathcal{F}$ which associates a Deitmar scheme (which is defined over the field with one element, denoted by $\mathbb{F}_1$) with any given graph $\Gamma$. By base extension, a scheme…

An algebra is said to be \emph{$\tau$-tilting finite} provided it has only a finite number of $\tau$-rigid objects up to isomorphism. We associate a category to each such algebra. The objects are the wide subcategories of its category of…

A simple definition of torsion theory is presented, as a factorization system with both classes satisfying the 3--for--2 property. Comparisons with the traditional notion are given, as well as connections with the notions of fibration and…

We investigate functors between abelian categories having a left adjoint and a right adjoint that are \emph{similar} (these functors are called \emph{quasi-Frobenius functors}). We introduce the notion of a \emph{quasi-Frobenius bimodule}…

Nonunique factorization in cancellative commutative semigroups is often studied using combinatorial factorization invariants, which assign to each semigroup element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical…

We provide a criterion for the existence of right approximations in cocomplete additive categories; it is a straightforward generalisation of a result due to El Bashir. This criterion is used to construct adjoint functors in homotopy…

Adjoint functors and projectivization in representation theory of partially ordered sets are used to generalize the algorithms of differentiation by a maximal and by a minimal point. Conceptual explanations are given for the combinatorial…

We study the category $\mathcal{F}(\mathfrak{S}_S,\mathcal{V})$ of functors from the category $\mathfrak{S}_S$, which is the category of elements of some presheaf $S$ on the category $\mathcal{V}^f$ of finite dimensional vector spaces, to…
