We investigate the properties of lax comma categories over a base category $X$, focusing on topologicity, extensivity, cartesian closedness, and descent. We establish that the forgetful functor from $\mathsf{Cat}//X$ to $\mathsf{Cat}$ is…

Let $\mathsf{Ord} $ be the category of (pre)ordered sets. Unlike $\mathsf{Ord}/X$, whose behaviour is well-known, not much can be found in the literature about the lax comma 2-category $\mathsf{Ord} //X$. In this paper we show that the…

We present a characterization of effective descent morphisms in the lax comma category $\mathsf{Ord}//X$ when $X$ is a locally complete ordered set, as well as in the antisymmetric setting.

The fundamental construction underlying descent theory, the lax descent category, comes with a functor that forgets the descent data. We prove that, in any $2$-category $\mathfrak{A} $ with lax descent objects, the forgetful morphisms…

A topology on a nonempty set $X$ specifies a natural subset of $\mathcal{P}(X)$. By identifying $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))$ with the totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $2^{\mathcal{P}(X)}$, the lattice $Top(X)$ of all topologies…

For a quantale ${\sf{V}}$, the category $\sf V$-${\bf Top}$ of ${\sf{V}}$-valued topological spaces may be introduced as a full subcategory of those ${\sf{V}}$-valued closure spaces whose closure operation preserves finite joins. In…

For each recollement of triangulated categories, there is an epivalence between the middle category and the comma category associated to a triangle functor from the category on the right to the category on the left. For a morphic…

Let $\mathfrak{P}$ be a topological property. We study the relation between the order structure of the set of all $\mathfrak{P}$-extensions of a completely regular space $X$ with compact remainder (partially ordered by the standard partial…

We characterize effective descent morphisms of what we call filtered preorders, and apply these results to slightly improve a known result, due to the first author and F. Lucatelli Nunes, on the effective descent morphisms in lax comma…

We define the notion of {\em classifying space} of a topological stack and show that every topological stack \X has a classifying space X which is a topological space well-defined up to weak homotopy equivalence. Under a certain…

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…

Morphisms between (formal) contexts are certain pairs of maps, one between objects and one between attributes of the contexts in question. We study several classes of such morphisms and the connections between them. Among other things, we…

In Categorial Topology, given a category (as a "geometric object") we can consider its properties preserved under continuous action (a "deformation") of a comma-propagation operation. However, the Metacategory space, valid for all…

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…

The aim of this article is to study certain categorical-algebraic frameworks for basic homological algebra, introduced in arXiv:2404.15896, with the aim of better understanding the differences between them. We focus on homological…

In the first part, we further advance the study of category theory in a strong balanced factorization category C [Pisani, 2008], a finitely complete category endowed with two reciprocally stable factorization systems such that X \to 1 is in…

We consider all compatible topologies of an arbitrary finite-dimensional vector space over a non-trivial valuation field whose metric completion is a locally compact space. We construct the canonical lattice isomorphism between the lattice…

Let $X$ be a topological space. A subset of $C(X)$, the space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$, is a partially ordered set in the pointwise order. Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are topological spaces, and $A(X)$ and $A(Y)$ are subsets…

In this note we study symmetric monoidal functors from a symmetric monoidal 1-category to a cartesian symmetric monoidal $\infty$-category, which are in addition hypersheaves for a certain topology. We prove a symmetric monoidal version of…

We study limits in 2-categories whose objects are categories with extra structure and whose morphisms are functors preserving the structure only up to a coherent comparison map, which may or may not be required to be invertible. This is…
