In this paper we propose an approach to homotopical algebra where the basic ingredient is a category with two classes of distinguished morphisms: strong and weak equivalences. These data determine the cofibrant objects by an extension…
We investigate the homological behaviour of compactly generated triangulated categories under separable extensions. We show that homological invariants (finiteness of global dimension, gorensteinness and regularity) are preserved under such…
Constructions of spectra from symmetric monoidal categories are typically functorial with respect to strict structure-preserving maps, but often the maps of interest are merely lax monoidal. We describe conditions under which one can…
We introduce the notion of local fibration, a generalization of the notion of fibration which takes into account the presence of Grothendieck topologies on the two categories, and show that the classical results about fibrations lift to…
We develop a categorical framework for reasoning about abstract properties of differentiation, based on the theory of fibrations. Our work encompasses the first-order fragments of several existing categorical structures for differentiation,…
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a new category, which we call a resonance category, whose combinatorics reflect that of canonical stratifications of $n$-fold symmetric smash products. The study of the stratifications can then…
This paper establishes the separation of complexity classes $\mathbf{P}$ and $\mathbf{NP}$ through a novel homological algebraic approach grounded in category theory. We construct the computational category $\mathbf{Comp}$, embedding…
We present a doctrinal approach to category theory, obtained by abstracting from the indexed inclusions (via discrete fibrations and opfibrations) of the left and of the right actions of X in Cat in categories over X. Namely, a "weak…
This article is an introduction to the basic generalized category theory used in recent work on an extension of the theory of categories and categorical logic, including parts of topos theory. We discuss functors, equivalences, natural…
In this paper we analyze some relationships between the topological complexity of a space $X$ and the category of $C_{\Delta_X},$ the homotopy cofibre of the diagonal map $\Delta_X:X\rightarrow X\times X.$ We establish the equality of the…
We show that differential calculus (in its usual form, or in the general form of topological differential calculus) can be fully imdedded into a functor category (functors from a small category of anchord tangent algebras to anchored sets).…
In this paper we define a relative rigid fundamental group, which associates to a section $p$ of a smooth and proper morphism $f:X\rightarrow S$ in characteristic $p$, a Hopf algebra in the ind-category of overconvergent $F$-isocrystals on…
The classical Hopf invariant is defined for a map f: S^r -> X. Here we define `hcat' which is some kind of Hopf invariant built with a construction in Ganea's style, valid for maps not only on spheres but more generally on a `relative…
Restriction categories provide a categorical framework for partiality. In this paper, we introduce three new categorical theories for partiality: local categories, partial categories, and inclusion categories. The objects of a local…
F\'elix, Halperin, and Lemaire have shown that the rational module category Mcat and the rational Toomer invariant $e_0$ coincide for simply connected Poincar\'e duality complexes. We establish an analogue of this result for the sectional…
We propose a new homotopy invariant for Lie groupoids which generalizes the classical Lusternik-Schnirelmann category for topological spaces. We use a bicategorical approach to develop a notion of contraction in this context. We propose a…
The Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and topological complexity are important invariants of manifolds (and more generally, topological spaces). We study the behavior of these invariants under the operation of taking the connected sum of…
Relative realizability toposes satisfy a universal property that involves regular functors to other categories. We use this universal property to define what relative realizability categories are, when based on other categories than of the…
Category theory plays a special character in mathematics - it unifies distinct branches under the same formalism. Despite this integrative power in math, it also seems to provide the proper foundations to the experimental physicist. In this…
In the context of the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category, researcher T. Srinivasan demonstrated that when the space under consideration is an absolute neighborhood retract, its category can be realized through arbitrary subsets, not…
