A type theory is presented that combines (intuitionistic) linear types with type dependency, thus properly generalising both intuitionistic dependent type theory and full linear logic. A syntax and complete categorical semantics are…
We propose a generalization of first-order logic originating in a neglected work by C.C. Chang: a natural and generic correspondence language for any types of structures which can be recast as Set-coalgebras. We discuss axiomatization and…
The structures $\langle M,\subseteq^M\rangle$ arising as the inclusion relation of a countable model of sufficient set theory $\langle M,\in^M\rangle$, whether well-founded or not, are all isomorphic. These structures $\langle…
We prove a thick subcategory theorem for the category of $d$-excisive functors from finite spectra to spectra. This generalizes the Hopkins-Smith thick subcategory theorem (the $d=1$ case) and the $C_2$-equivariant thick subcategory theorem…
For a nice-enough category $\mathcal{C}$, we construct both the morphism category ${\rm H}(\mathcal{C})$ of $\mathcal{C}$ and the category ${\rm mod}\mbox{-}\mathcal{C}$ of all finitely presented contravariant additive functors over…
Dilworth's theorem. Every finite distributive lattice $D$ can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite lattice $L$. We want: Every finite distributive lattice $D$ can be represented as the congruence lattice of a nice finite…
We study a class of observables in four-dimensional superconformal Yang--Mills theories which, in the planar limit at finite 't Hooft coupling, can be expressed as determinants of semi-infinite matrices built from Bessel functions. This…
In their article "Elementary construction of perverse sheaves", R.MacPherson and K. Vilonen show that on a Thom-Mather space X the category PervX of perverse sheaves is equivalent to the category C(F, G, T) whose objects are data of…
For a (possibly large) realized limit sketch $\mathcal{S}$ such that every $\mathcal{S}$-model is small in a suitable sense we show that the category of cocontinuous functors $\mathsf{Mod}(\mathcal{S}) \to \mathcal{C}$ into a cocomplete…
We introduce a general unifying framework for the investigation of pointlike sets. The pointlike functors are considered as distinguished elements of a certain lattice of subfunctors of the power semigroup functor; in particular, we exhibit…
We find new "reasons" for a class of models for not having a universal model in a cardinal $\lambda$. This work, though it has consequences in model theory, is really in combinatorial set theory. We concentrate on a prototypical class which…
Motivated by the study of meromorphic vector fields, a model theory of "compact complex manifolds equipped with a generic derivation" is here proposed. This is made precise by the notion of a differential CCM-structure. A first-order…
We develop a comprehensive theory of the stable representation categories of several sequences of groups, including the classical and symmetric groups, and their relation to the unstable categories. An important component of this theory is…
Werner's set-theoretical model is one of the simplest models of CIC. It combines a functional view of predicative universes with a collapsed view of the impredicative sort Prop. However this model of Prop is so coarse that the principle of…
In this short note, we classify linear categorified open topological field theories in dimension two by pivotal Grothendieck-Verdier categories, a type of monoidal category equipped with a weak, not necessarily rigid duality. In combination…
We briefly review an effective theory of QCD at high baryon density, describing the relevant modes near the Fermi surface. The high density effective theory has properties of reparametrization invariance and gauge invariance, maintained in…
Let $R,S$ be rings, $\mathcal{X}\subseteq \text{mod}$-$R$ a covariantly finite subcategory, $\mathcal{C}$ the smallest definable subcategory of $\text{Mod}$-$R$ containing $\mathcal{X}$ and $\mathcal{D}$ a definable subcategory of…
I define lattice fermions in five Euclidean dimensions and the corresponding effective theory in four dimensions. The main properties of these theories include the suppression of high momentum modes of the lattice Dirac operator and their…
We translate notions and results of decomposition and dimension theories for module categories, into the lattice environment. In particular we translate dimension theory in module categories to complete modular upper-continuous lattices.
We study finite-rank left-translation invariant algebraic $D$-modules on complex affine algebraic groups. Using the standard description of these objects as left-invariant flat algebraic connections on the trivial vector bundle, modulo…
