We consider the origins of Higher Tannaka duality, as well as it consequences. In a first time we review the work of J. Wallbridge on that subject, which shows in particular that Hopf algebras are essential to generating Tannakian…

In this paper we generalize Tannakian formalism to fiber functors over general tensor categories. We will show that (under some technical conditions) if the fiber functor has a section, then the source category is equivalent to the category…

We establish an equivalence of homotopy theories between symmetric monoidal bicategories and connective spectra. For this, we develop the theory of $\Gamma$-objects in 2-categories. In the course of the proof we establish strictfication…

We study several classes of braided fusion categories, and prove that they all contain nontrivial Tannakian subcategories. As applications, we classify some fusion categories in terms of solvability and group-theoreticality.

This paper examines the category theory of stratified set theory (NF and KF). We work out the properties of the relevant categories of sets, and introduce a functorial analogue to Specker's T-operation. Such a development leads one to…

We extend the homotopy theories based on point reduction for finite spaces and simplicial complexes to finite acyclic categories and $\Delta$-complexes, respectively. The functors of classifying spaces and face posets are compatible with…

Tannaka duality and its extensions by Lurie, Sch\"appi et al. reveal that many schemes as well as algebraic stacks may be identified with their tensor categories of quasi-coherent sheaves. In this thesis we study constructions of cocomplete…

We introduce and develop the notion of scalar extension for abelian categories. Given a field extension F'/F, to every F-linear abelian category A satisfying a suitable finiteness condition we associate an F'-linear abelian category A' and…

We define extension $\infty$-categories for exact $\infty$-categories in terms of bifibrations. Extension $\infty$-categories are invariant when passing to the stable hull, and consequently we show that they form an $\Omega$-spectrum,…

We show that, under appropriate hypothesis, the groupoid of maps from S to an an algebraic stack X can be identified with a category of tensor functors from coherent sheaves on X to coherent sheaves on S. As an application, we show that if…

We define a notion of groupoidal 2-quasi-categories and show that they are the fibrant objects of a model structure on the category of $\Theta_2$-sets. We show that this model category is Quillen equivalent to the Kan-Quillen model category…

This paper introduces the notion of weakly globular double categories, a particular class of strict double categories, as a way to model weak 2-categories; it explores its use in defining a double category of fractions, and shows that the…

Classification questions are often about understanding components of a category. It is much more desirable however to be able to understand the entire homotopy type of this category and not just the set of its components. In this paper we…

We introduce the notion of a definable category--a category equivalent to a full subcategory of a locally finitely presentable category that is closed under products, directed colimits and pure subobjects. Definable subcategories are…

In this paper we describe the homotopy category of the $A_\infty$categories. To do that we introduce the notion of semi-free $A_\infty$category, which plays the role of standard cofibration. Moreover, we define the non unital $A_\infty$…

Under certain conditions, a scheme can be reconstructed from its category of quasi-coherent sheaves. The Tannakian reconstruction theorem provides another example where a geometric object can be reconstructed from an associated category, in…

We propose a notion of weak (n+k,n)-category, which we call (n+k,n)-Theta-spaces. The (n+k,n)-Theta-spaces are precisely the fibrant objects of a certain model category structure on the category of presheaves of simplicial sets on Joyal's…

We (re)consider how the Fukaya category of a Lefschetz fibration is related to that of the fibre. The distinguishing feature of the approach here is a more direct identification of the bimodule homomorphism involved.

We use the notion of multi-Reedy category to prove that, if $\mathcal C$ is a Reedy category, then $\Theta \mathcal C$ is also a Reedy category. This result gives a new proof that the categories $\Theta_n$ are Reedy categories. We then…

A classical result of Tannaka duality is the fact that a coalgebra over a field can be reconstructed from its category of finite dimensional representations by using the forgetful functor which sends a representation to its underlying…
