For a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we prove that the bounded homotopy category of projective $A$-modules and the bounded derived category of $A$-modules are dual to each other via certain categories of locally-finite cohomological…

For an arbitrary rational polyhedron we consider its decompositions into Minkowski summands and, dual to this, the free extensions of the associated pair of semigroups. Being free for the pair of semigroups is equivalent to flatness for the…

Building on previous work, we study the splitting of idempotents in the category of extensions $\mathbb{E}\operatorname{-Ext}(\mathcal{C})$ associated to a pair $(\mathcal{C},\mathbb{E})$ of an additive category and a biadditive functor to…

Polynomials in a category have been studied as a generalization of the traditional notion in mathematics. Their construction has recently been extended to higher groupoids, as formalized in homotopy type theory, by Finster, Mimram, Lucas…

We give an elementary construction of the exact completion of a weakly lex category for categories enriched in the cartesian closed category $\mathsf{Pos}$ of partially ordered sets. Paralleling the ordinary case, we characterize categories…

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 develop the theory of tricategorical limits and colimits, and show that they can be modelled up to biequivalence via certain homotopically well-behaved limits and colimits enriched over the monoidal model category $\mathbf{Gray}$ of…

We contribute XTT, a cubical reconstruction of Observational Type Theory which extends Martin-L\"of's intensional type theory with a dependent equality type that enjoys function extensionality and a judgmental version of the unicity of…

For an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra $\Lambda$, we prove that any wide subcategory of $\mathsf{mod} \Lambda$ satisfying a certain finiteness condition is $\theta$-semistable for some stability condition $\theta$. More generally, we…

We define the notion of an indexed profunctor over a 2-category, and use it to develop an abstract theory of limits. The theory subsumes (conical) limits, weighted limits, ends and Kan extensions. Results include an abstract version of the…

We consider limits over categories of extensions and show how certain well-known functors on the category of groups turn out as such limits. We also discuss higher (or derived) limits over categories of extensions.

We show, assuming PD, that every complete finitely axiomatized second order theory with a countable model is categorical, but that there is, assuming again PD, a complete recursively axiomatized second order theory with a countable model…

We develop the theory of exact completions of regular $\infty$-categories, and show that the $\infty$-categorical exact completion (resp. hypercompletion) of an abelian category recovers the connective half of its bounded (resp. unbounded)…

Let $\Lambda$ be an artin algebra. We are going to consider full subcategories of $\mod\Lambda$ closed under finite direct sums and under submodules with infinitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable modules. The main result asserts…

We show that in the category of groups, every singly-generated class which is closed under isomorphisms, direct limits and extensions is also singly-generated under isomorphisms and direct limits, and in particular is co-reflective. We also…

Pursuing the notions of ambidexterity and higher semiadditivity as developed by Hopkins and Lurie, we prove that the span $\infty$-category of $m$-finite spaces is the free $m$-semiadditive $\infty$-category generated by a single object.…

Products in double categories, as found in cartesian double categories, are an elegant concept with numerous applications, yet also have a few puzzling aspects. In this paper, we revisit double-categorical products from an unbiased…

Recent work in set theory indicates that there are many different notions of 'set', each captured by a different collection of axioms, as proposed by J. Hamkins in [Ham11]. In this paper we strive to give one class theory that allows for a…

Recently, in weighted automata theory the weight structure of strong bimonoids has found much interest; they form a generalization of semirings and are closely related to near-semirings studied in algebra. Here, we define polynomials over a…
