We introduce a notion of complexity of diagrams (and in particular of objects and morphisms) in an arbitrary category, as well as a notion of complexity of functors between categories equipped with complexity functions. We discuss several…
The principal aim of this note is to give an elementary proof of the fact that any two fiber functors of a Tannakian category are locally isomorphic. This builds on an idea of Deligne concerning scalar extensions of Tannakian categories and…
There is a lot of redundancy in the usual definition of adjoint functors. We define and prove the core of what is required. First we do this in the hom-enriched context. Then we do it in the cocompletion of a bicategory with respect to…
Let $k$ be a regular ring, and let $A,B$ be essentially finite type $k$-algebras. For any functor $F:{D}(A)\times\dots\times{D}(A)\to{D}(B)$ between their derived categories, we define its twist…
A topologically-invariant and additive homology class is mostly not a natural transformation as it is. In this paper we discuss turning such a homology class into a natural transformation; i.e., a "categorification" of it. In a general…
The contributions of this paper are twofold. Within the framework of Grothendieck's fibrational category theory, we present a web of fundamental 2-adjunctions surrounding the formation of the category of all small diagrams in a given…
In two papers we noted that in common practice many algebraic constructions are defined only `up to isomorphism' rather than explicitly. We mentioned some questions raised by this fact, and we gave some partial answers. The present paper…
The description of algebraic structure of n-fold loop spaces can be done either using the formalism of topological operads, or using variations of Segal's $\Gamma$-spaces. The formalism of topological operads generalises well to different…
This short article contains the construction of a construction that generalizes the concept of the derivative of a function of one variable, using the theory of filters. The paper presents a new concept, demonstrates that it really…
Effective descent morphisms, originally defined in Grothendieck descent theory, form a class of special morphisms within a category. Essentially, an effective descent morphism enables bundles over its codomain to be fully described as…
We construct a fully faithful functor from the category of graphs to the category of fields. Using this functor, we resolve a longstanding open problem in computable model theory, by showing that for every nontrivial countable structure S,…
We define and study opfibrations of $V$-enriched categories when $V$ is an extensive monoidal category whose unit is terminal and connected. This includes sets, simplicial sets, categories, or any locally cartesian closed category with…
In this paper we will prove that there exists a covariant functor, called algebraic anabelian functor, from the category of algebraic schemes over a given field to the category of outer homomorphism sets of groups. The algebraic anabelian…
The Grothendieck construction of a diagram $X$ of categories can be seen as a process to construct a single category $\Gr(X)$ by gluing categories in the diagram together. Here we formulate diagrams of categories as colax functors from a…
We construct a functor from the Hecke category to a groupoid built from the underlying Coxeter group. This fixes a gap in an earlier work of the authors. This functor provides an abstract realization of the localization of the Hecke…
Starting from simple and necessary axioms on a (derivator enhanced) four-functor-formalism, we construct derivator six-functor-formalisms using compactifications. This works, for instance, for the stable homotopy categories of…
We introduce a new method to construct a Grothendieck category from a given colored quiver. This is a variant of the construction used to prove that every partially ordered set arises as the atom spectrum of a Grothendieck category. Using…
Model structures for many different kinds of functor calculus can be obtained by applying a theorem of Bousfield to a suitable category of functors. In this paper, we give a general criterion for when model categories obtained via this…
Derived functors (or Zuckerman functors) play a very important role in the study of unitary representations of real reductive groups. These functors are usually applied on highest weight modules in the so-called good range and the theory is…
We give a construction of triangulated categories as quotients of exact categories where the subclass of objects sent to zero is defined by a triple of functors. This includes the cases of homotopy and stable module categories. These…
