Enriched categories are categories whose sets of morphisms are enriched with extra structure. Such categories play a prominent role in the study of higher categories, homotopy theory, and the semantics of programming languages. In this…

We develop category theory within Univalent Foundations, which is a foundational system for mathematics based on a homotopical interpretation of dependent type theory. In this system, we propose a definition of "category" for which equality…

Univalent categories constitute a well-behaved and useful notion of category in univalent foundations. The notion of univalence has subsequently been generalized to bicategories and other structures in (higher) category theory. Here, we…

In this paper, we analyze and compare three of the many algebraic structures that have been used for modeling dependent type theories: categories with families, split type-categories, and representable maps of presheaves. We study these in…

We give a new constructive proof of homotopy canonicity for homotopy type theory (HoTT). Canonicity proofs typically involve gluing constructions over the syntax of type theory. We instead use a gluing construction over a "strict Rezk…

As the prototypical category, $\mathbf{Set}$ has many properties which make it special amongst categories. From the point of view of mathematical logic, one such property is that $\mathbf{Set}$ has enough structure to "properly" formalise…

Category theory unifies mathematical concepts, aiding comparisons across structures by incorporating objects and morphisms, which capture their interactions. It has influenced areas of computer science such as automata theory, functional…

We prove that every categorical model of dependent type theory with dependent sums and products, intensional identity types and univalent universes presents via its $\infty$-localisation an elementary $\infty$-topos, that is, a finitely…

Univalence, originally a type theoretical notion at the heart of Voevodsky's Univalent Foundations Program, has found general importance as a higher categorical property that characterizes descent and hence classifying maps in…

In this paper, we present a constructive generalization of metric and uniform spaces by introducing a new class of spaces, called cover spaces. These spaces form a topological concrete category with a full reflective subcategory of complete…

Using generalized enriched categories, in this paper we show that Rosick\'{y}'s proof of cartesian closedness of the exact completion of the category of topological spaces can be extended to a wide range of topological categories over…

We extend Makkai duality between coherent toposes and ultracategories to a duality between toposes with enough points and ultraconvergence spaces. Our proof generalizes and simplifies Makkai's original proof. Our main result can also be…

For a category $\mathcal E$ with finite limits and well-behaved countable coproducts, we construct a model structure, called the effective model structure, on the category of simplicial objects in $\mathcal E$, generalising the Kan--Quillen…

The elementary quotient completion of an elementary doctrine in the sense of Lawvere was introduced in previous work by the first and third authors. It generalises the exact completion of a category with finite products and weak equalisers.…

Category theory provides a compact method of encoding mathematical structures in a uniform way, thereby enabling the use of general theorems on, for example, equivalence and universal constructions. In this article we develop the method of…

We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…

Many ex/reg completions $J:\mathcal C\to\mathcal C_{\rm ex/reg}$ that arise in categorical realizability and tripos theory admit left Kan extensions of arbitrary finitely continuous functors to arbitrary exact categories. This paper…

In the present paper we use the theory of exact completions to study categorical properties of small setoids in Martin-L\"of type theory and, more generally, of models of the Constructive Elementary Theory of the Category of Sets, in terms…
