Let $k$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $\underline{\mathscr{C}}$ be a locally finite $k$-linear category equipped with a self-embedding functor of degree 1. We show under a moderate condition that finitely generated torsion…

For a category C we investigate the problem of when the coproduct $\bigoplus$ and the product functor $\prod$ from C^I to C are isomorphic for a fixed set I, or, equivalently, when the two functors are Frobenius functors. We show that for…

Consider a formal (mixed-characteristic) deformation functor D of a representation of a finite group G as automorphisms of a power series ring k[[t]] over a perfect field k of positive characteristic. Assume that the action of G is weakly…

This is an expanded version of the text ``Perverse Sheaves on Loop Grassmannians and Langlands Duality'', AG/9703010. The main new result is a topological realization of algebraic representations of reductive groups over arbitrary rings. We…

Category theory is the language of homological algebra, allowing us to state broadly applicable theorems and results without needing to specify the details for every instance of analogous objects. However, authors often stray from the realm…

We study criteria for a ring - or more generally, for a small category - to be Gorenstein and for a module over it to be of finite projective dimension. The goal is to unify the universal coefficient theorems found in the literature and to…

An unrepresentable cohomological functor of finite type of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves of a compact complex manifold of dimension greater than one with no proper closed subvariety is given explicitly in categorical…

To an Adams-type homology theory we associate a notion of a synthetic spectrum, this is a product-preserving sheaf on the site of finite spectra with projective $E$-homology. We prove that the $\infty$-category $Syn_{E}$ of synthetic…

We prove that the functor of noncommutative deformations of every flipping or flopping irreducible rational curve in a 3-fold is representable, and hence associate to every such curve a noncommutative deformation algebra. This new invariant…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be subcategories of tensor categories $\mathcal{C}$ and $\mathcal{D}$, respectively, both of which are abelian categories with finitely many isomorphism classes of simple objects. We prove that if their…

As shown by Ashtekar in the mid 80's, general relativity can be extended to incorporate degenerate metrics. This extension is not unique, however, as one can change the form of the hamiltonian constraints and obtain an {\it alternative}…

An adjoint pair of contravariant functors between abelian categories can be extended to the adjoint pair of their derived functors in the associated derived categories. We describe the reflexive complexes and interpret the achieved results…

Two pertinent questions for any support theory of a monoidal triangulated category are whether it is functorial and if the tensor product property holds. To this end, we consider the complete prime spectrum of an essentially small monoidal…

Representation theory is shown to be incomplete in terms of enumerating all integrable limits of quantum systems. As a consequence, one can find exactly solvable Hamiltonians which have apparently strongly broken symmetry. The number of…

Stable homotopy theory is governed by the principle that after inverting loop spaces, homotopy types become the representing objects for homology theories. We show that this principle extends to higher category theory: inverting…

We define and study the functorial spectrum for every triangulated tensor category. A reconstruction result for topologically noetherian schemes similar to (and based on) a theorem by Balmer is proved. An alternative proof of the…

We identify the obstructions for the functoriality and the uniqueness of the totalization functor, (partially) defined on the category of simplicial objects in the homotopy category of a stable model category, and we use a result from the…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be an additive category. The nilpotent category $\mathrm{Nil} (\mathcal{C})$ of $\mathcal{C}$, consists of objects pairs $(X, x)$ with $X\in\mathcal{C}, x\in\mathrm{End}_{\mathcal{C}}(X)$ such that $x^n=0$ for some…

In this paper we prove that a finite product of Brauer--Severi varieties is categorical representable in dimension zero if and only if it admits a $k$-rational point if and only if it is rational over $k$. The same is true for certain…

We generalize the construction of reflection functors from classical representation theory of quivers to arbitrary small categories with freely attached sinks or sources. These reflection morphisms are shown to induce equivalences between…
