This paper develops a theory of colimit sketches "with constructions" in higher category theory, formalising the input to the ubiquitous procedure of adjoining specified "constructible" colimits to a category such that specified "relation"…

The category of Hilbert modules may be interpreted as a naive quantum field theory over a base space. Open subsets of the base space are recovered as idempotent subunits, which form a meet-semilattice in any firm braided monoidal category.…

We define and study the notion of a locally bounded enriched category over a (locally bounded) symmetric monoidal closed category, generalizing the locally bounded ordinary categories of Freyd and Kelly. In addition to proving several…

We present several new model-theoretic applications of the fact that, under the assumption that there exists a proper class of almost strongly compact cardinals, the powerful image of any accessible functor is accessible. In particular, we…

The monad of convex sets of probability distributions is a well-known tool for modelling the combination of nondeterministic and probabilistic computational effects. In this work we lift this monad from the category of sets to the category…

Via the adjunction $ - \boldsymbol{\cdot} 1 \dashv \mathcal V(1,-) \colon \mathsf{Span}(\mathcal V) \to \mathcal V \text{-} \mathsf{Mat} $ and a cartesian monad $ T $ on an extensive category $ \mathcal V $ with finite limits, we construct…

We construct a categorical framework for nonlinear postquantum inference, with embeddings of convex closed sets of suitable reflexive Banach spaces as objects and pullbacks of Br\`egman quasi-nonexpansive mappings (in particular,…

We extend the 2-representation theory of finitary 2-categories to certain 2-categories with infinitely many objects, denoted locally finitary 2-categories, and extend the classical classification results of simple transitive…

Viewing higher local fields as ring objects in the category of iterated pro-ind-objects, a definition of open subgroups in Milnor K-groups of the fields is given. The self-duality of the additive group of a higher local field is proved. By…

Recently, Dotsenko and Tamaroff have shown that a morphism of $T\longrightarrow S$ of monads over a category $\mathscr C$ satisfies the PBW-property if and only if it makes $S$ into a free right $T$-module. We consider an adjunction…

This paper gives a uniform-theoretic refinement of classical homotopy theory. Both cubical sets (with connections) and uniform spaces admit classes of weak equivalences, special cases of classical weak equivalences, appropriate for the…

We generalize fundamental notions of higher algebra, traditionally developed within the $\infty$-category of spectra, to the broader setting of $t$-structured tensor triangulated $\infty$-categories ($ttt$-$\infty$-categories). Under a…

We develop the theory of topoi internal to an arbitrary $\infty$-topos $\mathcal B$. We provide several characterisations of these, including an internal analogue of Lurie's characterisation of $\infty$-topoi, but also a description in…

Differential categories provide the categorical foundations for the algebraic approaches to differentiation. They have been successful in formalizing various important concepts related to differentiation, such as, in particular,…

We study 2-monads and their algebras using a Cat-enriched version of Quillen model categories, emphasizing the parallels between the homotopical and 2-categorical points of view. Every 2-category with finite limits and colimits has a…

The free algebra adjunction, between the category of algebras of a monad and the underlying category, induces a comonad on the category of algebras. The coalgebras of this comonad are the topic of study in this paper (following earlier…

We formulate a version of Beck's monadicity theorem for abelian categories, which is applied to the equivariantization of abelian categories with respect to a finite group action. We prove that the equivariantization is compatible with the…

We investigate the extent to which the weak equivalences in a model category can be equipped with algebraic structure. We prove, for instance, that there exists a monad T such that a morphism of topological spaces admits T-algebra structure…

We study local systems of $(\infty,n)$-categories on spaces. We prove that categorical local systems are captured by (higher) monodromy data: in particular, if $X$ is $(n+1)$-connected, then local systems of $(\infty,n)$-categories over $X$…
