This paper formulates a notion of independence of subobjects of an object in a general (i.e. not necessarily concrete) category. Subobject independence is the categorial generalization of what is known as subsystem independence in the…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra and $\mathfrak{k}$ be any $\mathrm{sl}(2)$-subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. In this paper we prove an earlier conjecture by Penkov and Zuckerman claiming that the first…

We define strict and weak duality involutions on 2-categories, and prove a coherence theorem that every bicategory with a weak duality involution is biequivalent to a 2-category with a strict duality involution. For this purpose we…

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 show that small quasicategories embed, both simplicially and 2-categorically, into prederivators defined on arbitrary small categories, so that in some senses prederivators can serve as a model for $(\infty,1)$-categories. The result for…

This paper shows how internal models for polymorphic lambda calculi arise in any 2-category with a notion of discreteness. We generalise to a 2-categorical setting the famous theorem of Peter Freyd saying that there are no sufficiently…

A weak entwining structure in a 2-category K consists of a monad t and a comonad c, together with a 2-cell relating both structures in a way that generalizes a mixed distributive law.A weak entwining structure can be characterized as a…

Let $X$ be a smooth proper variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $\mathcal{A} \subset D^{b}_{\mathrm{coh}}(X)$ be an admissible subcategory. Let $Z \subset X$ be the union of set-theoretical supports of…

The notion of a weak duality involution on a bicategory was recently introduced by Shulman in [arXiv:1606.05058]. We construct a weak duality involution on the fully dualisable part of $\text{Alg}$, the Morita bicategory of…

Generalizing deformation quantizations with separation of variables of a K\"ahler manifold $M$, we adopt Fedosov's gluing argument to construct a category $\mathsf{DQ}$, enriched over sheaves of $\mathbb{C}[[\hbar]]$-modules on $M$, as a…

We develop the method of inducing semiorthogonal decompositions of projective varieties with isolated rational singularities from those of small resolutions of singularities, which generalizes semiorthogonal decompositions for singular…

We develop the theory of strong and commutative monads in the 2-dimensional setting of bicategories. This provides a framework for the analysis of effects in many recent models which form bicategories and not categories, such as those based…

Given Gray-categories $P$ and $L$, there is a Gray-category $\mathrm{Tricat}_{\mathrm{ls}}(P,L)$ of locally strict trihomomorphisms with domain $P$ and codomain $L$, tritransformations, trimodifications, and perturbations. If the domain $P$…

We discuss various concepts of $\infty$-homotopies, as well as the relations between them (focussing on the Leibniz type). In particular $\infty$-$n$-homotopies appear as the $n$-simplices of the nerve of a complete Lie ${\infty}$-algebra.…

It is proved that the assembly maps in algebraic K- and L-theory with respect to the family of finite subgroups is injective for groups with finite asymptotic dimension that admit a finite model for the classifying space for proper actions.…

In this article the notion of virtual double category (also known as fc-multicategory) is extended as follows. While cells in a virtual double category classically have a horizontal multi-source and single horizontal target, the notion of…

We show that a QWEP von Neumann algebra has the weak* positive approximation property if and only if it is seemingly injective in the following sense: there is a factorization of the identity of $M$ $$Id_M=vu: M{\buildrel…

A compact closed bicategory is a symmetric monoidal bicategory where every object is equipped with a weak dual. The unit and counit satisfy the usual "zig-zag" identities of a compact closed category only up to natural isomorphism, and the…

We prove that a quasi-finite endomorphism of an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, that is injective on the complement of a closed subvariety, is an automorphism. We also prove that an endomorphism…

We provide various ways to characterise $\Sigma$-pure-injective objects in a compactly generated triangulated category. These characterisations mimic analogous well-known results from the model theory of modules. The proof involves two…
