We generalize the constructions and results of Chapter 10 in Baldwin's "Categoricity" to coherent accessible categories with concrete directed colimits and concrete monomorphisms. In particular, we prove that if any category of this form is…

We study the homotopy theory of diagrams of chain complexes over a field indexed by a finite poset, and show that it can be completely described in terms of appropriate diagrams of graded vector spaces.

We show how derived categories build bridges across the current mathematical mainstream, linking geometric and algebraic, commutative and noncommutative, local and global banks. Arches in these bridges are pieces of semiorthogonal…

The main result of this paper utilizes the representation graph of a group $G$, $R(V,G)$, and gives a general construction of a diagrammatic category $\mathbf{Dgrams}_{R(V,G)}$. The proof of the main theorem shows that, given explicit…

This work extends the theory of reciprocal diagrams in graphic statics to frameworks that are invariant under finite group actions by utilizing the homology and representation theory of cellular cosheaves, recent tools from applied…

In a previous article, we introduced notions of finiteness obstruction, Euler characteristic, and L^2-Euler characteristic for wide classes of categories. In this sequel, we prove the compatibility of those notions with homotopy colimits of…

We present a generative model which can automatically summarize the stroke composition of free-hand sketches of a given category. When our model is fit to a collection of sketches with similar poses, it discovers and learns the structure…

In this paper we introduce a general framework for the study of limits of relational structures in general and graphs in particular, which is based on a combination of model theory and (functional) analysis. We show how the various…

We write down a series of basic laws for (strict) higher-order circuit diagrams. More precisely, we define higher-order circuit theories in terms of: (a) nesting, (b) temporal and spatial composition, and (c) equivalence between lower-order…

The development of mathematics has been characterized by the increasing interconnectivity of seemingly separate disciplines. Such interplay has been facilitated by a massive development in formalism; category theory has provided a common…

One goal of applied category theory is to understand open systems. We compare two ways of describing open systems as cospans equipped with extra data. First, given a functor $L \colon \mathsf{A} \to \mathsf{X}$, a "structured cospan" is a…

In this short note we prove a sector counting lemma for a class of Fermi surface on the plane which are $C^2$-differentiable and strictly convex. This result generalizes the one proved in \cite{FKT} for the class of…

Given a diagram of rings, one may consider the category of modules over them. We are interested in the homotopy theory of categories of this type: given a suitable diagram of model categories M(s) (as s runs through the diagram), we…

We develop a theory of curved A-infinity-categories around equivalences of their module categories. This allows for a uniform treatment of curved and uncurved A-infinity-categories which generalizes the classical theory of uncurved…

We present some constructions of limits and colimits in pro-categories. These are critical tools in several applications. In particular, certain technical arguments concerning strict pro-maps are essential for a theorem about \'etale…

We are checking the closed categories beginning with the category of sets and ending with the category of categories. The novelty is a generalizing the notion of adjoint functors to the joint pair of functors in the category of directed…

Let V be a cofibrantly generated closed symmetric monoidal model category and M a model V-category. We say that a weighted colimit W*D of a diagram D weighted by W is a homotopy weighted colimit if the diagram D is pointwise cofibrant and…

We model problems as presheaves that assign sets of certificates to input instances, and we show how to use presheaf \v{C}ech cohomology to capture the precise ways in which local solutions fail to patch into global ones. Applied to…
