We focus on working on incidence rings, a class of (possibly infinite) matrix rings indexed by ordered sets. Some general properties about them are given, including how they are always the inverse limit of finite matrix rings, giving a…

We explore the canonical Grothendieck topology and a new homotopical analog. First we discuss some background information, including defining a new 2-category called the Index-Functor Category and a sieve generalization. Then we discuss a…

Our aim is to generalize the result that two generic complex line arrangements are equivalent. In fact for a line arrangement A we associate its defining polynomial, the product of a_ix+b_iy+c_i, so that A = (f=0). We prove that the…

Extriangulated categories axiomatize extension-closed subcategories of triangulated categories. We show that the homotopy category of an exact quasi-category can be equipped with a natural extriangulated structure.

In this note, we compare the two approaches to semiring schemes as topological spaces with a structure sheaf and as a functor of points. We explain and prove the following two results: (1) the topological space can be recovered from the…

I review some recent work on applications of category theory to questions concerning theoretical structure and theoretical equivalence of classical field theories, including Newtonian gravitation, general relativity, and Yang-Mills…

Stratifolds are considered from a categorical point of view. We show among others that the category of stratifolds fully faithfully embeds into the category of ${\mathbb R}$-algebras as does the category of smooth manifolds. We prove that a…

This survey aims to provide a guide to the literature on topological 4-manifolds. Foundational theorems on 4-manifolds are stated, especially in the topological category. Precise references are given, with indications of the strategies…

We explain the motivation for looking for a predicative analogue of the notion of a topos and propose two definitions. For both notions of a predicative topos we will present the basic results, providing the groundwork for future work in…

In this article, we introduce an interesting topology-like concept concerning groups (and with almost the same method it can be defined for other algebraic systems). Given an arbitrary group $G$, we define a {\em topo-system} on $G$ as a…

A topological space is called a submetrizable if it can be mapped onto a metrizable topological space by a continuous one-to-one map. In this paper we answer two questions concerning sequence-covering maps on submetrizable spaces.

For a category with subobjects and factorization, here we describe a new category which we call category of chain bundles and it is shown that this new category is also a category with subobjects and admits factorization under certain…

Category theory provides a means through which many far-ranging fields of mathematics can be related by their similar structure. In a paper by Robinson [2], this interconnectivity afforded by categorical perspectives allowed for the…

The notion of a simplicial set originated in algebraic topology, and has also been utilized extensively in category theory, but until relatively recently was not used outside of those fields. However, with the increasing prominence of…

If $X$ is a topological group, then its fundamental groupoid $\pi_1X$ is a group-groupoid which is a group object in the category of groupoids. Further if $X$ is a path connected topological group which has a simply connected cover, then…

The concept of quasi-partial b-metric-like spaces is being introduced and studied with the help of topology. Examples are also discussed to support the results. Some fixed point theorems are proved in the setting of quasi-partial…
