We consider the canonical pseudodistributive law between various free limit completion pseudomonads and the free coproduct completion pseudomonad. When the class of limits includes pullbacks, we show that this consideration leads to notions…

In this paper, we justify and make precise an elementary approach that establishes the existence of (co)limits in $\mathbf{Cat}$. This approach, while conceptually evident, has not been made fully explicit or systematically described in the…

In the first part of this article, we give an analysis of the free monad sequence in non-cocomplete categories, with the needed colimits explicitly parametrized. This enables us to state a more finely grained functoriality principle for…

Given a type A in homotopy type theory (HoTT), we can define the free infinity-group on A as the loop space of the suspension of A+1. Equivalently, this free higher group can be defined as a higher inductive type F(A) with constructors unit…

Internal categories feature notions of limit and completeness, as originally proposed in the context of the effective topos. This paper sets out the theory of internal completeness in a general context, spelling out the details of the…

Suppose we are given a graph and want to show a property for all its cycles (closed chains). Induction on the length of cycles does not work since sub-chains of a cycle are not necessarily closed. This paper derives a principle reminiscent…

We introduce structured decompositions, category-theoretic structures which simultaneously generalize notions from graph theory (including treewidth, layered treewidth, co-treewidth, graph decomposition width, tree independence number,…

In a type-theoretic fibration category in the sense of Shulman (representing a dependent type theory with at least 1, Sigma, Pi, and identity types), we define the type of constant functions from A to B. This involves an infinite tower of…

Pursuing the notions of ambidexterity and higher semiadditivity as developed by Hopkins and Lurie, we prove that the span $\infty$-category of $m$-finite spaces is the free $m$-semiadditive $\infty$-category generated by a single object.…

We construct a perfect version of Morel--Voevodsky's motivic homotopy category over a perfect base scheme in positive characteristic. By checking the axioms of a coefficient system, we establish a six-functor formalism. We show that…

One of the prime motivation for topology was Homotopy theory, which captures the general idea of a continuous transformation between two entities, which may be spaces or maps. In later decades, an algebraic formulation of topology was…

We give a sufficient condition for an Ext-finite triangulated category to be saturated. Saturatedness means that every contravariant cohomological functor of finite type to vector spaces is representable. The condition consists in existence…

The classical theory of free analysis generalizes the noncommutative (nc) polynomials and rational functions, easily providing such results as an nc analogue of the Jacobian conjecture. However, the classical theory misses out on important…

We construct a model structure on the category of small categories enriched over a combinatorial closed symmetric monoidal model category satisfying the monoid axiom. Weak equivalences are Dwyer-Kan equivalences, i.e. enriched functors…

One goal of applied category theory is to better understand networks appearing throughout science and engineering. Here we introduce "structured cospans" as a way to study networks with inputs and outputs. Given a functor $L \colon…

An algebraic left Kan extension is a left Kan extension which interacts well with the algebraic structure present in the given situation, and these appear in various subjects such as the homotopy theory of operads and in the study of…

Notions and techniques of enriched category theory can be used to study topological structures, like metric spaces, topological spaces and approach spaces, in the context of topological theories. Recently in [D. Hofmann, Injective spaces…

A non-empty subset of a topological space is irreducible if whenever it is covered by the union of two closed sets, then already it is covered by one of them. Irreducible sets occur in proliferation: (1) every singleton set is irreducible,…

We describe spectral model category structures on the categories of cyclotomic spectra and $p$-cyclotomic spectra (in orthogonal spectra) with triangulated homotopy categories. We show that the functors $TR$ and $TC$ are corepresentable in…

A general method for lifting weak factorization systems in a category S to model category structures on simplicial objects in S is described, analogously to the lifting of cotorsion pairs in Abelian categories to model category structures…
