The Ehresmann-Schein-Nambooripad (ESN) Theorem asserts an equivalence between the category of inverse semigroups and the category of inductive groupoids. In this paper, we consider the category of inverse categories and functors -- a…

For a smooth spacetime $X$, based on the timelike homotopy classes of its timelike paths, we define a topology on $X$ that refines the Alexandrov topology and always coincides with the manifold topology. The space of timelike or causal…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with non-zero identity and $\fa$ an ideal of $R$. Let $M$ be a finite $R$--module of of finite projective dimension and $N$ an arbitrary finite $R$--module. We characterize the membership of the…

We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture in this context.…

We prove a class of equivalences of additive functor categories that are relevant to enumerative combinatorics, representation theory, and homotopy theory. Let $\mathscr{X}$ denote an additive category with finite direct sums and split…

This is the first draft of a book about higher categories approached by iterating Segal's method, as in Tamsamani's definition of $n$-nerve and Pelissier's thesis. If $M$ is a tractable left proper cartesian model category, we construct a…

We examine configurations of finite subsets of manifolds within the homotopy-theoretic context of $\infty$-categories by way of stratified spaces. Through these higher categorical means, we identify the homotopy types of such configuration…

In this paper we give a summary of the comparisons between different definitions of so-called (\infty,1)-categories, which are considered to be models for \infty-categories whose n-morphisms are all invertible for n>1. They are also, from…

This paper begins with an exposition of the author's research on the category of BP_*BP-comodules, much of which is joint with Neil Strickland. The main result of that work is that the category of E(n)_*E(n)-comodules is equivalent to a…

We introduce the notion of a contramodule over a cocommutative coalgebra in a presentably symmetric monoidal $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$, and prove a symmetric monoidal $\infty$-categorical version of Positselski's comodule-contramodule…

Generalising Segal's approach to 1-fold loop spaces, the homotopy theory of $n$-fold loop spaces is shown to be equivalent to the homotopy theory of reduced $\Theta_n$-spaces, where $\Theta_n$ is an iterated wreath product of the simplex…

Viewing higher local fields as ring objects in the category of iterated pro-ind-objects, a definition of open subgroups in Milnor K-groups of the fields is given. The self-duality of the additive group of a higher local field is proved. By…

This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…

Given a small category C, a C-module M is a functor from C to the category of finite-dimensional vector spaces over a field k. Associated to M is its local structure, given as a functor from C to the category of bi-closed multi-flags over…

This article focuses on the study of the group of units of incidence rings, which is a class of infinite matrix groups indexed by ordered sets, on a topological perspective. We first show when these groups can inherit the topological…

Categorical spectra are spectrum objects in pointed $(\infty,\infty)$-categories: sequences $(X_n)$ equipped with equivalences $X_n\simeq \Omega X_{n+1}$. This thesis develops foundations for categorical spectra and constructs their tensor…

In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…

We produce group structures on certain sets of topological vector bundles of fixed rank. In particular, we put a group structure on complex rank $2$ bundles on $\mathbb{C}P^3$ with fixed first Chern class. We show that this binary operation…

We show that given a rigid C*-tensor category, there is an equivalence of categories between normalized irreducible Q-systems, also known as connected unitary Frobenius algebra objects, and compact connected W*-algebra objects. Although…

Motivated by recent developments of $\infty$-categorical theories related to differential graded (dg for short) Lie algebras, we develop a general framework for locally finite $\infty$-$\mathfrak{g}$-modules over a dg Lie algebra…
