We introduce and study the notion of affine varieties associated to ordered bases and establish Galois connection between the power set of $A^n_K$ and the power set of $K[x_1, . . ., x_n]$, and then induce a Galois correspondence. We…

Consider an exact couple in a semiabelian category in the sense of Palamodov, i.e., in an additive category in which every morphism has a kernel as well as a cokernel and the induced morphism between coimage and image is always monic and…

By homotopy linear algebra we mean the study of linear functors between slices of the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-groupoids, subject to certain finiteness conditions. After some standard definitions and results, we assemble said slices…

We define what we call morphisms of Cartan connections. We generalize the main theorems on Cartan connections to theorems on morphisms. Many of the known constructions involving Cartan connections turn out to be examples of morphisms. We…

We use double categories to obtain a single theorem characterizing certain exponentiable morphisms of small categories, topological spaces, locales, and posets.

We define a Galois structure on the category of pairs of equivalence relations in an exact Mal'tsev category, and characterize central and double central extensions in terms of higher commutator conditions. These results generalize both the…

We introduce semiframes (an algebraic structure) and investigate their duality with semitopologies (a topological one). Both semitopologies and semiframes are relatively recent developments, arising from a novel application of topological…

We extend and apply the Galois theory of linear differential equations equipped with the action of an endomorphism. The Galois groups in this Galois theory are difference algebraic groups and we use structure theorems for these groups to…

Some aspects of basic category theory are developed in a finitely complete category $\C$, endowed with two factorization systems which determine the same discrete objects and are linked by a simple reciprocal stability law. Resting on this…

Under a general categorical procedure for the extension of dual equivalences as presented in this paper's predecessor, a new algebraically defined category is established that is dually equivalent to the category $\bf LKHaus$ of locally…

The category $\bcalNT$ was introduced in \cite{Lobos2} in order to provide a structural setting to the study of the many Gelfand-Tsetlin subalgebras appearing in the context of the diagrammatic Soergel category of Elias and Williamson…

It turns out that one can read off facts about schemes up to universal homeomorphism from their Galois categories. Here we propose a first modest slate of entries in a dictionary between the geometric features of a perfectly reduced scheme…

The logarithmic connections studied in the paper are direct images of regular connections on line bundles over genus-2 double covers of the elliptic curve. We give an explicit parametrization of all such connections, determine their…

This work reveals a fundamental link between general covariance and Birkhoff's theorem. We extend Birkhoff's theorem from general relativity to a broad class of generally covariant gravity theories formulated in the Hamiltonian framework.…

We introduce the notion of symplectic microfolds and symplectic micromorphisms between them. They form a monoidal category, which is a version of the "category" of symplectic manifolds and canonical relations obtained by localizing them…

In 1962, H. de Vries proved a duality theorem for the category {\bf HC} of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps. The composition of the morphisms of the dual category obtained by him differs from the set-theoretic one. Here we…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we introduce a new class of linearizations, based on the generalization of a construction used in polynomial algebra to find the zeros of a system of (scalar) polynomial equations. We show that one…

Descent theory for linear categories is developed. Given a linear category as an extension of a diagonal category, we introduce descent data, and the category of descent data is isomorphic to the category of representations of the diagonal…
