Handling curved $ A_\infty $-deformations is challenging and defining their derived categories seems impossible. In this paper, we show how to welcome the curvature and build derived categories despite the apparent difficulties. We…

The notion of a weakly Mal'tsev category, as it was introduced in 2008 by the third author, is a generalization of the classical notion of a Mal'tsev category. It is well-known that a variety of universal algebras is a Mal'tsev category if…

In this paper we develop a theory of stability for $G$-categories (presheaf of categories on the orbit category of $G$), where $G$ is a finite group. We give a description of Mackey functors as $G$-commutative monoids exploit it to…

We develop foundations for oriented category theory, an extension of $(\infty,\infty)$-category theory obtained by systematic usage of the Gray tensor product, in order to study lax phenomena in higher category theory. As categorical…

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…

This work tackles the problem of spectral characterization of a class of infinite matrices arising from the modelling of small oscillations in a system of interacting particles. The class of matrices under discussion corresponds to the…

Applied category theory often studies symmetric monoidal categories (SMCs) whose morphisms represent open systems. These structures naturally accommodate complex wiring patterns, leveraging (co)monoidal structures for splitting and merging…

Symmetry plays a fundamental role in understanding natural phenomena and mathematical structures. This work develops a comprehensive theory for studying the persistent symmetries and degree of asymmetry of finite point configurations over…

We investigate when the clone of congruence preserving functions is finitely generated. We obtain a full description for all finite $p$-groups, and for all finite algebras with Mal'cev term and simple congruence lattice. The…

Informed by our understanding of the tt-geometry of permutation modules, we investigate the proper definition of the `stable permutation category' of a finite group. Then we prove that this category decomposes over cyclic and generalized…

We study the inhibition of pattern formation in nonlinear optical systems using intracavity photonic crystals. We consider mean field models for single and doubly degenerate optical parametric oscillators. Analytical expressions for the new…

While decomposition of one-parameter persistence modules behaves nicely, as demonstrated by the algebraic stability theorem, decomposition of multiparameter modules is known to be unstable in a certain precise sense. Until now, it has not…

Inspired by the widespread concept of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals of complete type, this article proposes an alternative class of functionals, termed Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals of robust type. Their construction aims at improving…

We study new classes of metric transformations in the context of scalar-tensor theories, which involve both higher derivatives of the scalar field and derivatives of the metric itself. In general, such transformations are not invertible as…

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…

In this paper we study nearest-neighbour deformations of integrable models. After expanding in the deformation parameter, we identify four possible types of deformations. First there are deformations that simply break or preserve…

Wave turbulence is the study of the long-time statistical behaviour of equations describing a set of weakly non-linear interacting waves. Such a theory, which has a natural asymptotic closure, allows us to probe the nature of turbulence…

Mal'tsev categories turned out to be a central concept in categorical algebra. On one hand, the simplicity and the beauty of the notion is revealed through a lot of characterizations of different flavour. Depending on the context, one can…
