We provide a short and reasonably self-contained proof of Lurie's straightening equivalence, relating cartesian fibrations over a given $\infty$-category $S$ with contravariant functors from $S$ to the $\infty$-category of small…

Expanding on the comprehensive factorization of functors internal to a category C, under fairly mild conditions on a monad T on C we establish that this orthogonal factorization system exists even in Burroni's category Cat(T) of (internal)…

We consider the problem of constructing the free bifibration generated by a functor of categories $p : D \to C$. This problem was previously considered by Lamarche, and is closely related to the problem, considered by Dawson, Par\'e, and…

We construct a left semi-model category of "marked strict $\infty$-categories" for which the fibrant objects are those whose marked arrows satisfy natural closure properties and are weakly invertible. The canonical model structure on strict…

We give a categorical explanation for many properties of profinite coproducts of profinite groups, which were previously proven on a case-by-case basis. All of these properties take the form "certain functors preserve profinite coproducts".…

We extend Goodwillie's classification of finitary linear functors to arbitrary small functors. That is we show that every small linear simplicial functor from spectra to simplicial sets is weakly equivalent to a filtered colimit of…

In this paper, we develop the theory for classifying all the geometric fibrations of compact, connected, flat $n$-orbifolds, over a 1-orbifold, up to affine equivalence. We apply our classification theory to classify all the geometric…

We show that in a fibration the coformality of the base space implies the coformality of the total space under reasonable conditions, and these conditions can not be weakened. The result is partially dual to the classical work of Lupton…

In the first part of this note, we review and compare various instances of the notion of twisted coefficient system, a.k.a. polynomial functor, appearing in the literature. This notion hinges on how one defines the degree of a functor from…

We introduce notions of lax semiadditive and lax additive $(\infty,2)$-categories, categorifying the classical notions of semiadditive and additive 1-categories. To establish a well-behaved axiomatic framework, we develop a calculus of lax…

Dwyer-Kan localization at pairs of quasi-isomorphisms of the category of dg Lie-Rinehart pairs $(A,M)$, where $A$ is a semi-free cdga over a field $k$ of characteristic zero and $M$ a cell complex in $A$-modules, is shown to be equivalent…

We extend the Quillen Theorem Bn for homotopy fibers of Dwyer, et al. to similar results for homotopy pullbacks and note that these results imply similar results for zigzags in the categories of relative categories and k-relative…

We introduce a class of diffeological spaces, called elastic, on which the left Kan extension of the tangent functor of smooth manifolds defines an abstract tangent functor in the sense of Rosicky. On elastic spaces there is a natural…

We consider several types of non-existence theorems for functors. For example, there are no nontrivial functors from the category of groups (or the category of pointed sets, or vector spaces) to any small category. Another type of questions…

Given a fibration in groupoids d : D -> I, we define a fibered multicategory as a particular functor p : M -> I, where M has the same objects as D, and its arrows a : X -> Y should be thought of as families of arrows in the multicategory,…

Reasoning about weak higher categorical structures constitutes a challenging task, even to the experts. One principal reason is that the language of set theory is not invariant under the weaker notions of equivalence at play, such as…

Model structures for many different kinds of functor calculus can be obtained by applying a theorem of Bousfield to a suitable category of functors. In this paper, we give a general criterion for when model categories obtained via this…
