W.H. Woodin showed that if $\kappa_1 < \cdots < \kappa_n$ are strong cardinals then two-step ${\bf\Sigma}^1_{n+3}$ generic absoluteness holds after collapsing $2^{2^{\kappa_n}}$ to be countable. We show that this number can be reduced to…
We explore an alternative definition of unit in a monoidal category originally due to Saavedra: a Saavedra unit is a cancellative idempotent (in a 1-categorical sense). This notion is more economical than the usual notion in terms of…
We lower substantially the strength of the assumptions needed for the validity of certain results in category theory and homotopy theory which were known to follow from Vopenka's principle. We prove that the necessary large-cardinal…
There are a dozen definitions of weak higher categories, all of which loosen the notion of composition of arrows. A new approach is presented here, where instead the notion of identity arrow is weakened -- these are tentatively called fair…
We prove a correspondence between $\kappa$-small fibrations in simplicial presheaf categories equipped with the injective or projective model structure (and left Bousfield localizations thereof) and relatively $\kappa$-compact maps in their…
A certain amount of category theory is developed in an arbitrary finitely complete category with a factorization system on it, playing the role of the comprehensive factorization system on Cat. Those aspects related to the concepts of…
It is well known that "Fukaya category" is in fact an $A_{\infty}$-pre-category in sense of Kontsevich and Soibelman \cite{KS}. The reason is that in general the morphism spaces are defined only for transversal pairs of Lagrangians, and…
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…
We introduce a notion of $\Theta$-categories, which is a refinement of the notion of symmetric monoidal $\infty$-categories. We use this notion to prove a Tannakian duality statement, relating $\Theta$-categories with fpqc-stacks by means…
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…
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…
We develop parametrized generalizations of a number of fundamental concepts in the theory of $\infty$-categories, including factorization systems, free fibrations, exponentiable fibrations, relative colimits and relative Kan extensions,…
The importance of accessible categories has been widely recognized; they can be described as those freely generated in some precise sense by a small set of objects and, because of that, satisfy many good properties. More specifically…
In this paper we continue the project of generalizing tilting theory to the category of contravariant functors $Mod(C)$, from a skeletally small preadditive category $C$ to the category of abelian groups. We introduced the notion of a a…
We consider the canonical pseudodistributive law between various free limit completion pseudomonads and the free coproduct completion pseudomonad. When the class of limits includes pullbacks, we show that this consideration leads to notions…
We introduce the notion of a higher covering diagram in a base $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$. The theory of higher covering diagrams in $\mathcal{C}$ will be shown to recover various descent conditions known from the $\infty$-categorical…
From every pair of adjoint functors it is possible to produce a (possibly trivial) equivalence of categories by restricting to the subcategories where the unit and counit are isomorphisms. If we do this for the adjunction between effect…
A lot of well-known functors such as group homology, cyclic homology of algebras can be described as limits of certain simply defined functors over categories of presentations. In this paper, we develop technique for the description of the…
We propose a new framework for integrating quantifiers with other logical connectives in a higher-categorical setting. Our method systematically incorporates key coherence conditions-including those akin to the Beck-Chevalley property-and…
In this paper we redevelop the foundations of the category theory of quasi-categories (also called infinity-categories) using 2-category theory. We show that Joyal's strict 2-category of quasi-categories admits certain weak 2-limits, among…
