We give an introduction to the theory of 2-Segal sets, and two of the main applications of them: Hall algebras and a discrete version of Waldhausen's $S_\bullet$-construction. We present several combinatorial examples and how these…

We define an $S_\bullet$-construction for squares categories, and introduce a class of squares categories we call "proto-Waldhausen" which capture the properties required for the $S_\bullet$-construction to model the K-theory space. The…

In previous work, we develop a generalized Waldhausen $S_{\bullet}$-construction whose input is an augmented stable double Segal space and whose output is a unital 2-Segal space. Here, we prove that this construction recovers the previously…

The theory of 2-Segal sets has connections to various important constructions such as the Waldhausen $S_\bullet$-construction in algebraic $K$-theory, Hall algebras, and (co)operads. In this paper, we construct 2-Segal sets from rooted…

This is an introduction to Hall algebras from the perspective of $2$-Segal spaces or decomposition spaces, as introduced by Dyckerhoff and Kapranov and G\'{a}lvez-Carrillo, Kock and Tonks, respectively. We explain how linearizations of the…

Waldhausen's $S_\bullet$-construction gives a way to define the algebraic $K$-theory space of a category with cofibrations. Specifically, the $K$-theory space of a category with cofibrations $\mathcal{C}$ can be defined as the loop space of…

This is the first paper in a series on new higher categorical structures called higher Segal spaces. For every d > 0, we introduce the notion of a d-Segal space which is a simplicial space satisfying locality conditions related to…

It is known by results of Dyckerhoff-Kapranov and of G\'alvez--Carrillo-Kock-Tonks that the output of the Waldhausen S.-construction has a unital 2-Segal structure. Here, we prove that a certain S.-functor defines an equivalence between the…

We introduce higher dimensional analogues of simplicial constructions due to Segal and Waldhausen, respectively producing the direct sum and algebraic $K$-theory spectra of an exact category. We then investigate their fibrancy properties,…

In a previous paper, we showed that a discrete version of the $S_\bullet$-construction gives an equivalence of categories between unital 2-Segal sets and augmented stable double categories. Here, we generalize this result to the homotopical…

We study a categorical construction called the cobordism category, which associates to each Waldhausen category a simplicial category of cospans. We prove that this construction is homotopy equivalent to Waldhausen's…

These notes are an expanded version of my talk at the ICRA 2018 in Prague, Czech Republic; they are based on joint work with Tobias Dyckerhoff and Tashi Walde. In them we relate Iyama's higher Auslander algebras of type $\mathbb{A}$ to…

We extend the Bass-Quillen Fundamental Theorem of Algebraic K-theory to the Waldhausen K-theory of connective ${\bf S}$-algebras. The same technique used in this extension also yields two localization theorems for the relative K-theory of a…

We develop a new framework to study real $K$-theory in the context of $\infty$-categories. For this, we introduce Waldhausen $\infty$-categories with genuine duality, which will be the input for such $K$-theory. These are Waldhausen…

Using a construction closely related to Waldhausen's $S_\bullet$-construction, we produce a spectrum $K(\mathbf{Var}_{/k})$ whose components model the Grothendieck ring of varieties (over a field $k$) $K_0 (\mathbf{Var}_{/k})$. We then…
