Making use of Freyd's free abelian category on a preadditive category we show that if $T:D\rightarrow \mathcal{A}$ is a representation of a quiver $D$ in an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$ then there is an abelian category $\mathcal{A} (T)$,…

This paper introduces $\infty$- and $n$-fold vector bundles as special functors from the $\infty$- and $n$-cube categories to the category of smooth manifolds. We study the cores and "n-pullbacks" of $n$-fold vector bundles and we prove…

We develop methods for proving that certain extensions of polynomial functors do not split naturally. As an application we give a functorial description of the third and the fourth stable homotopy groups of the classifying spaces of free…

We construct a model of type theory enjoying parametricity from an arbitrary one. A type in the new model is a semi-cubical type in the old one, illustrating the correspondence between parametricity and cubes. Our construction works not…

If D is a category and k is a commutative ring, the functors from D to k-Mod can be thought of as representations of D. By definition, D is dimension zero over k if its finitely generated representations have finite length. We characterize…

The discriminant of a smooth plane cubic curve over the complex numbers can be written as a product of theta functions. This provides an important connection between algebraic and analytic objects. In this paper, we perform a new approach…

We define triangulated factorization systems on triangulated categories, and prove that a suitable subclass thereof (the normal triangulated torsion theories) corresponds bijectively to $t$-structures on the same category. This result is…

We define the notion of an indexed profunctor over a 2-category, and use it to develop an abstract theory of limits. The theory subsumes (conical) limits, weighted limits, ends and Kan extensions. Results include an abstract version of the…

We consider a category whose morphisms are bordisms of $n$-dimensional pseudomanifolds equipped with a certain additional structure (coloring). On the other hand, we consider the product $G$ of $(n+1)$ copies of infinite symmetric group. We…

We provide a description of the annular representation category of the free product of two rigid C*-tensor categories.

A Vec-variety is a suitable functor from finite-dimensional vector spaces to finite-dimensional varieties. Most varieties in the geometry of tensors, e.g. the variety of d-way tensors of slice rank at most r, are of this form. We prove that…

We present a definition of a (super)-modular functor which includes certain interesting cases that previous definitions do not allow. We also introduce a notion of topological twisting of a modular functor, and construct formally a…

Let $D$ be an odd square-free positive integer and $C$ a divisor of $D$. For any quadratic character $\chi$ modulo $C$, we prove that the $\chi$-part of the group $J_0(DC)_\text{tor}$ of torsion points of $J_0(DC)$ coincides with the…

We describe derivations of the Clifford algebra of a nondegenerate quadratic form on a countable dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to $2$. We also construct an algebraic automorphism of…

We consider the 3-category $2\mathfrak{C}at$ whose objects are 2-categories, 1-morphisms are lax functors, 2-morphisms are lax transformations and 3-morphisms are modifications. The aim is to show that it carries interesting…

Fiber functors on Temperley-Lieb categories are investigated with the help of classification results on non-degenerate bilinear forms. The case of unitary fiber functors is also considered.

We establish the characterizations of commutators of several versions of maximal functions on spaces of homogeneous type. In addition, with the aid of interpolation theory, we provide weighted version of the commutator theorems by…

We prove that the notion of Drinfeld center defines a functor from the category of indecomposable multi-tensor categories with morphisms given by bimodules to that of braided tensor categories with morphisms given by monoidal bimodules.…

We study the problem of constructing a contragredient functor on the category of admissible locally analytic representations of a p-adic analytic group G. A naive contragredient does not exist. As a best approximation, we construct an…

We study several structure aspects of functor categories from a small additive category to a module category, in particular the category F(A,K) of functors from finitely generated free modules over a commutative ring A to vector spaces over…
