Effective descent morphisms, originally defined in Grothendieck descent theory, form a class of special morphisms within a category. Essentially, an effective descent morphism enables bundles over its codomain to be fully described as…
We give sufficient conditions for effective descent in categories of (generalized) internal multicategories. Two approaches to study effective descent morphisms are pursued. The first one relies on establishing the category of internal…
Let $A$ be a regular category with pushouts of regular epimorphisms by regular epimorphism and $Reg(A)$ the category of regular epimorphisms in $A$. We prove that every regular epimorphism in $Reg(A)$ is an effective descent morphism if,…
We present a characterization of effective descent morphisms in the lax comma category $\mathsf{Ord}//X$ when $X$ is a locally complete ordered set, as well as in the antisymmetric setting.
For any suitable base category $\mathcal{V} $, we find that $\mathcal{V} $-fully faithful lax epimorphisms in $\mathcal{V} $-$\mathsf{Cat} $ are precisely those $\mathcal{V}$-functors $F \colon \mathcal{A} \to \mathcal{B}$ whose induced…
In this short note we explain the proof that proper surjective and faithfully flat maps are morphisms of effective descent for overconvergent isocrystals. We then show how to deduce the folklore theorem that for an arbitrary variety over a…
Via the adjunction $ - \boldsymbol{\cdot} 1 \dashv \mathcal V(1,-) \colon \mathsf{Span}(\mathcal V) \to \mathcal V \text{-} \mathsf{Mat} $ and a cartesian monad $ T $ on an extensive category $ \mathcal V $ with finite limits, we construct…
This thesis is an exposition of the author's contribution on effective descent morphisms in various categories of generalized categorical structures. It consists of: Chapter 1, where an elementary description of descent theory and the…
The fundamental construction underlying descent theory, the lax descent category, comes with a functor that forgets the descent data. We prove that, in any $2$-category $\mathfrak{A} $ with lax descent objects, the forgetful morphisms…
We study limits in 2-categories whose objects are categories with extra structure and whose morphisms are functors preserving the structure only up to a coherent comparison map, which may or may not be required to be invertible. This is…
In this article we study cohomological properties of the category of polynomial outer functors on free groups, which are the functors from the category of finitely generated free groups to the category of rational vector spaces which send…
Given a Noetherian formal scheme $\hat X$ over ${\rm Spf}(R)$, where $R$ is a complete DVR, we first prove a theorem of meromorphic descent along a possibly infinite cover of $\hat{X}$. Using this we construct a specialization functor from…
We investigate the properties of lax comma categories over a base category $X$, focusing on topologicity, extensivity, cartesian closedness, and descent. We establish that the forgetful functor from $\mathsf{Cat}//X$ to $\mathsf{Cat}$ is…
We characterize effective descent morphisms of what we call filtered preorders, and apply these results to slightly improve a known result, due to the first author and F. Lucatelli Nunes, on the effective descent morphisms in lax comma…
We study lax epimorphisms in 2-categories, with special attention to $\mathsf{Cat}$ and $\mathcal{V}$-$\mathsf{Cat}$. We show that any 2-category with convenient colimits has an orthogonal $LaxEpi$-factorization system, and we give a…
The main result of this paper is a proof of the continuity of a family of integral functionals defined on the space of functions of bounded variation with respect to a topology under which smooth functions are dense. These functionals occur…
Stable derivators provide an enhancement of triangulated categories as is indicated by the existence of canonical triangulations. In this paper we show that exact morphisms of stable derivators induce exact functors of canonical…
Given a category $\mathcal{E}$, we establish sufficient conditions on a faithful isofibration $\mathcal{E}\rightarrow\operatorname{Mon}(\mathcal{V})$ valued in the category of monoids internal to a monoidal additive category $\mathcal{V}$…
This paper investigates the interplay between properties of a topological space $X$, in particular of its natural order, and properties of the lax comma category $\mathsf{Top} \Downarrow X$, where $\mathsf{Top}$ denotes the category of…
Given varieties $X, Y, W$ and dominant morphisms $\phi:X\to Y$ and $f:X\to W$ such that $f$ is constant on fibres of $\phi$ , we give sufficient conditions to guarantee that $f$ descends to a rational map or a morphism $Y\to W.$ We pay…
