Classical homological algebra takes place in additive categories. In homotopy theory such additive categories arise as homotopy categories of ``additive groupoid enriched categories'', in which a secondary analog of homological algebra can…

It was shown recently that Birkhoff's theorem for doubly stochastic matrices can be extended to unitary matrices with equal line sums whenever the dimension of the matrices is prime. We prove a generalization of the Birkhoff theorem for…

We compare two different notions of generic expansions of countable saturated structures. One kind of genericity is related to model-companions and to amalgamation constructions \'a la Hrushovski-Fra\"iss\'e. Another notion of generic…

In this paper we try to find a computational interpretation for a strong form of extensionality, which we call "converse extensionality". Converse extensionality principles, which arise as the Dialectica interpretation of the axiom of…

This manuscript presents a novel framework that integrates higher-order symmetries and category theory into machine learning. We introduce new mathematical constructs, including hyper-symmetry categories and functorial representations, to…

Parity is ubiquitous, but not always identified as a simplifying tool for computations. Using parity, having in mind the example of the bosonic/fermionic Fock space, and the framework of Z_2-graded (super) algebra, we clarify relationships…

The dimension algebra of graded groups is introduced. With the help of known geometric results of extension theory that algebra induces all known results of the cohomological dimension theory. Elements of the algebra are equivalence classes…

I show that the theories of enrichment in a monoidal infinity-category defined by Hinich and by Gepner-Haugseng agree, and that the identification is unique. Among other things, this makes the Yoneda lemma available in the former model.

Arboreal categories provide an axiomatic framework in which abstract notions of bisimilarity and back-and-forth games can be defined. They act on extensional categories, typically consisting of relational structures, via arboreal…

Whereas formal category theory is classically considered within a $2$-category, in this paper a double-dimensional approach is taken. More precisely we develop such theory within the setting of augmented virtual double categories, a notion…

A variety is a category of ordered (finitary) algebras presented by inequations between terms. We characterize categories enriched over the category of posets which are equivalent to a variety. This is quite analogous to Lawvere's classical…

This rough note describes some attempts to define a notion of enriched topology (and the associated theory of enriched stacks) on a category enriched over a symmetric monoidal model category, and poses some related questions.

State of the art language models return a natural language text continuation from any piece of input text. This ability to generate coherent text extensions implies significant sophistication, including a knowledge of grammar and semantics.…

Using ideas from algebraic topology and statistical mechanics, we generalize Kirchhoff's network and matrix-tree theorems to finite CW complexes of arbitrary dimension. As an application, we give a formula expressing Reidemeister torsion as…

We outline a definition of accessible and presentable objects in a 2-category $\mathcal K$ endowed with a "KZ context", that is to say a pair of lax-idempotent monads interacting in a prescribed way; this perspective suggests a unified…

Using the language of enriched $\infty$-categories, we formalize and generalize the definition of fusion n-category, and an analogue of iterative condensation of $E_i$-algebras. The former was introduced by Johnson-Freyd, and the latter by…
