Given a marked $\infty$-category $\mathcal{D}^{\dagger}$ (i.e. an $\infty$-category equipped with a specified collection of morphisms) and a functor $F: \mathcal{D} \to \mathbb{B}$ with values in an $\infty$-bicategory, we define…

Qualification conditions (also termed constraint qualifications) help avoid pathological behavior at domain boundaries in convex analysis. By generalizing facial reduction from conic programming to general convex programs of the form $f(x)…

We prove a general categorical theorem that enables us to state that under certain conditions, the range of a functor is large. As an application, we prove various results of which the following is a prototype: If every diagram, indexed by…

We develop a topological approach to prove the generalized Lax conjecture using the fact that determinants of sufficiently big symmetric linear pencils are able to express the rigidly convex sets of RZ polynomials of any degree $d$.…

We introduce new modified Abelian lattice models, with inhomogeneous local interactions, in which a sum over topological sectors are included in the defining partition function. The dual models, on lattices with arbitrary topology, are…

Pseudocolimits are formal gluing constructions that combine objects in a category indexed by a pseudofunctor. When the objects are categories and the domain of the pseudofunctor is small and filtered it has been known since Exppose 6 in…

For a left vector space V over a totally ordered division ring F, let Co(V) denote the lattice of convex subsets of V. We prove that every lattice L can be embedded into Co(V) for some left F-vector space V. Furthermore, if L is finite…

We prove that cloven Grothendieck fibrations over a fixed base $\ct{B}$ are the pseudo-coalgebras for a lax idempotent 2-comonad on $\ct{Cat}/\ct{B}$. We show this via an original observation that the known colax idempotent 2-monad for…

If $K$ is a compact Hausdorff space so that the Banach lattice $C(K)$ is isometrically lattice isomorphic to a dual of some Banach lattice, then $C(K)$ can be decomposed as the $\ell^\infty$-direct sum of the carriers of a maximal singular…

A theory of higher colimits over categories of free presentations is developed. It is shown that different homology functors such as Hoshcshild and cyclic homology of algebras over a field of characteristic zero, simplicial derived…

A pseudomonad on a $2$-category whose underlying endomorphism is a $2$-functor can be seen as a diagram $\mathbf{Psmnd} \rightarrow \mathbf{Gray}$ for which weighted limits and colimits can be considered. The $2$-category of pseudoalgebras,…

It is well known by analysts that a concept lattice has an exponential size in the data. Thus, as soon as he works with real data, the size of the concept lattice is a fundamental problem. In this chapter, we propose to investigate factor…
