We determine a family of functors from a poset to abelian groups such that the higher direct limits vanish on them. This is done by first characterizing the projective functors. Then a spectral sequence arising from the grading of the poset…

This article gives an elementary and formal 2-categorical construction of a bicategory of right fractions analogous to anafunctors, starting from a 2-category equipped with a family of covering maps that are fully faithful and co-fully…

We survey the basics of homological algebra in exact categories in the sense of Quillen. All diagram lemmas are proved directly from the axioms, notably the five lemma, the 3 x 3-lemma and the snake lemma. We briefly discuss exact functors,…

We use functorial methods to define and study $0$-abelian categories, which we propose to be the case $n = 0$ of Jasso's $n$-abelian categories. In particular, we define a bifunctor for $0$-abelian categories with enough injectives or…

Considering a (co)homology theory $\mathbb{T}$ on a base category $\mathcal{C}$ as a fragment of a first-order logical theory we here construct an abelian category $\mathcal{A}[\mathbb{T}]$ which is universal with respect to models of…

In this paper we study categorical properties of the category of abelian hypergroups that leads to the notion of hyper (almost) preadditive and hyper (almost) abelian categories. Our goal is to create a path towards a general theory of…

In this paper, we consider a kind of ideal quotient of an extriangulated category such that the ideal is the kernel of a functor from this extriangulated category to an abelian category. We study a condition when the functor is dense and…

Given a stratified topological space, we answer the question whether the functor from the derived category of constructible sheaves to the derived category of sheaves with constructible cohomology is an equivalence. We also establish basic…

Beligiannis and Marmaridis [\emph{Comm. in Algebra,} 22(12)(1994), 5021-5036] constructed the left and right triangulated structures on the stable categories of additive categories induced from some homological finite subcategories. We…

Exact categories are a natural generalisation of abelian categories and provide a fertile ground to develop relative homological algebra. In this paper, starting from a class of relative Gorenstein projective objects in an exact category…

Ideals are used to define homological functors for additive categories. In abelian categories the ideals corresponding to the usual universal objects are principal, and the construction reduces, in a choice dependent way, to homology…

We show that each rigid monoidal category A over a field defines a family of universal tensor categories, which together classify all faithful monoidal functors from A to tensor categories. Each of the universal tensor categories classifies…

This article contains a review of categorifications of semisimple representations of various rings via abelian categories and exact endofunctors on them. A simple definition of an abelian categorification is presented and illustrated with…

We show that if a (not necessarily algebraic) triangulated category T contains an admissible hereditary abelian subcategory H, then we can lift the inclusion of H into T to a fully faithful triangle functor from the whole of the bounded…

We introduce the notion of a definable category--a category equivalent to a full subcategory of a locally finitely presentable category that is closed under products, directed colimits and pure subobjects. Definable subcategories are…

We prove a constructive existence theorem for abelian envelopes of non-abelian monoidal categories. This establishes a new tool for the construction of tensor categories. As an example we obtain new proofs for the existence of several…

We describe the class of semi-stable model categories, which generalize the equivalence of finite products and coproducts in abelian and stable model categories, and use this to establish Morita equivalences among categories of functors. We…

We define model category structures on the category of chain complexes over a Grothendieck abelian category depending on the choice of a generating family, and we study their behaviour with respect to tensor products and stabilization. This…

We prove that an additive track category with strong coproducts is equivalent to the category of pseudomodels for the algebraic theory of $\nil_2$ groups. This generalizes the classical statement that the category of models for the…

A comma category, exemplified in algebraic geometry by coherent systems, combines two categories over a third through morphisms between their objects. We establish sufficient conditions for it to be abelian, compute its Grothendieck group,…
