We give an elementary exposition of some fundamental facts about fibered (or rather opfibered) categories, in terms of monads and 2-categories. The account avoids any mention of category-valued functors and pseudofunctors.
In this paper we develop the theory of topological categories over a base category, that is, a theory of topological functors. Our notion of topological functor is similar to (but not the same) the existing notions in the literature (see…
The coincidence between initial algebras (IAs) and final coalgebras (FCs) is a phenomenon that underpins various important results in theoretical computer science. In this paper, we identify a general fibrational condition for the IA-FC…
In this paper we study categories $(F,\mathbf{C},\mathbf{D})$ and $(\mathbb{F},\mathbf{C},\mathbf{Set})$ and prove them to be fibred on $\mathbf{C}$. Then we examine Grothendieck construction in the context of an ordinary functor $F:…
We introduce the notion of an enriched fibration, i.e. a fibration whose total category and base category are enriched in those of a monoidal fibration in an appropriate way. Furthermore, we provide a way to obtain such a structure,…
In this paper we start by pointing out that Yoneda's notion of a regular span $S \colon \mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{A} \times \mathcal{B}$ can be interpreted as a special kind of morphism, that we call fiberwise opfibration, in the 2-category…
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 method of direct computation of universal (fibred) product in the category of commutative associative algebras of finite type with unity over a field is given and proven. The field of coefficients is not supposed to be algebraically…
We study polynomial functors of degree 2, called quadratic, with values in the category of abelian groups $Ab$, and whose source category is an arbitrary category $\C$ with null object such that all objects are colimits of copies of a…
We introduce the notion of algebraic fibrant objects in a general model category and establish a (combinatorial) model category structure on algebraic fibrant objects. Based on this construction we propose algebraic Kan complexes as an…
In order to deduce the internal version of the Brown exact sequence from the internal version of the Gabriel-Zisman exact sequence, we characterize fibrations and $\ast$-fibrations in the 2-category of internal groupoids in terms of the…
We introduce and develop the notion of *displayed categories*. A displayed category over a category C is equivalent to "a category D and functor F : D --> C", but instead of having a single collection of "objects of D" with a map to the…
In the present paper we consider fibrations $f: S \ra B$ of an algebraic surface onto a curve $B$, with general fibre a curve of genus $g$. Our main results are: 1) A structure theorem for such fibrations in the case $g=2$ 2) A structure…
We study affine semigroup rings as algebras over subsemigroup rings. From this relative viewpoint with respect to a given subsemigroup ring, the fibered sum of two affine semigroup algebras is constructed. Such a construction is compared to…
Some basic features of the simultaneous inclusion of discrete fibrations and discrete opfibrations in categories over a base category X are considered. In particular, we illustrate the formulas (|P)x = ten(x/X,P) ; (P|)x = hom(X/x,P) which…
Fibrations over a category $B$, introduced to category theory by Grothendieck, encode pseudo-functors $B^{op} \rightsquigarrow {\bf Cat}$, while the special case of discrete fibrations encode presheaves $B^{op} \to {\bf Set}$. A two-sided…
We use the terms $\infty$-categories and $\infty$-functors to mean the objects and morphisms in an $\infty$-cosmos: a simplicially enriched category satisfying a few axioms, reminiscent of an enriched category of fibrant objects.…
In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…
We define a new notion of an algebraic model structure, in which the cofibrations and fibrations are retracts of coalgebras for comonads and algebras for monads, and prove "algebraic" analogs of classical results. Using a modified version…
We give an elementary construction of the dual fibration of a fibration. It does not use the non-elementary notion of (pseudo-) functor into the category of categories.
