A stable model category is a setting for homotopy theory where the suspension functor is invertible. The prototypical examples are the category of spectra in the sense of stable homotopy theory and the category of unbounded chain complexes…
We further develop Weber's notion of elementary 2-topos by proposing certain new axioms. We show that in a 2-category C satisfying these axioms, the "discrete opfibration (DOF) classifier" S is always an internal elementary 1-topos, in an…
For a category C we investigate the problem of when the coproduct $\bigoplus$ and the product functor $\prod$ from C^I to C are isomorphic for a fixed set I, or, equivalently, when the two functors are Frobenius functors. We show that for…
An elementary notion of homotopy can be introduced between arrows in a cartesian closed category $E$. The input is a finite-product-preserving endofunctor $\Pi_0$ with a natural transformation $p$ from the identity which is surjective on…
We study properties of a category after quotienting out a suitable chosen group of isomorphisms on each object. Coproducts in the original category are described in its quotient by our new weaker notion of a 'phased coproduct'. We examine…
This paper examines the category theory of stratified set theory (NF and KF). We work out the properties of the relevant categories of sets, and introduce a functorial analogue to Specker's T-operation. Such a development leads one to…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of exponential characteristic $p$. Given any prime $\ell\neq p$, we construct a stable \'etale realization functor $$\underline{\text{\'Et}}_{\ell}:\text{Spt}(k)\rightarrow…
This article describes the cocompletion of a category $C$ with finite limits as the homotopy category of some equivalence 2-groupoids in coproducts of elements of $C$. This yields a simple link between several definitions of an infinitary…
This is mostly an overview. Given finitely presentable abelian categories $A$ and $B$, we sketch the construction of an abelian category of continuous functors from $A$ to $B$ that has nice $2$-categorical behaviour and gives an explicit…
Suppose given a Frobenius category E, i.e. an exact category with a big enough subcategory B of bijectives. Let_E_ := E/B denote its classical stable category. For example, we may take E to be the category of complexes C(A) with entries in…
We describe a pretorsion theory in the category $Cat$ of small categories: the torsion objects are the groupoids, while the torsion-free objects are the skeletal categories, i.e., those categories in which every isomorphism is an…
It is well known that pretameness implies the forcing theorem, and that pretameness is characterized by the preservation of the axioms of $\mathsf{ZF}^-$, that is $\mathsf{ZF}$ without the power set axiom, or equivalently, by the…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a presentable infinity-category C so that families of objects of C form an infinity-topos. In particular, we prove a conjecture of Joyal that this is the case whenever C is stable.
We classify the localising tensor ideal and colocalising hom-closed subcategories of the stable module category for $\mathrm{LH}\mathfrak{F}$ groups. Along the way we develop techniques to provide similar classifications for other…
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…
We have generalised the notion of categorical theory in model theory to the context of coherent theories. We prove a duality result between the full sub-2-category of pretopoi which are categorical, and the 2-category of profinite monoids.…
We develop the theory of semi-orthogonal decompositions and spherical functors in the framework of stable $\infty$-categories. Building on this, we study the relative Waldhausen S-construction $S_\bullet(F)$ of a spherical functor $F$ and…
Torsion theories play an important role in abelian categories and they have been widely studied in the last sixty years. In recent years, with the introduction of pretorsion theories, the definition has been extended to general…
We develop a general theory of extensions of flat functors along geometric morphisms of toposes, and apply it to the study of the class of theories whose classifying topos is equivalent to a presheaf topos. As a result, we obtain a…
Forking is a central notion of model theory, generalizing linear independence in vector spaces and algebraic independence in fields. We develop the theory of forking in abstract, category-theoretic terms, for reasons both practical (we…
