It is well known that any model for derived manifolds must form a higher category. In this paper, we propose a universal property for this higher category, classifying it up to equivalence. Namely, the $\infty$-category $\mathbf{DMfd}$ of…
Given a complete hereditary cotorsion pair $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B})$ in a Grothendieck category $\mathcal{G}$, the derived category $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{B})$ of the exact category $\mathcal{B}$ is defined as the quotient of the category…
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…
We prove a K\"unneth-type equivalence of derived categories of lisse and constructible Weil sheaves on schemes in characteristic $p > 0$ for various coefficients, including finite discrete rings, algebraic field extensions $E \supset…
We describe an implementation of the biset category of finite groups as a tower of standard categorical constructions, all of which are implemented in the software projec t CAP for algorithmic category theory. In particular, we describe the…
A-infinity algebras and categories are known to be the algebraic structures behind open string field theories. In this note we comment on the relevance of the homology construction of A-infinity categories to superpotentials.
We examine various categorical structures that can and cannot be constructed. We show that total computable functions can be mimicked by constructible functors. More generally, whatever can be done by a Turing machine can be constructed by…
We prove that the K-theory of an exact quasicategory can be computed via a higher categorical variant of the Q construction. This construction yields a quasicategory whose weak homotopy type is a delooping of the K-theory space. We show…
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…
We prove that the Drinfeld double of an arbitrary finite group scheme has finitely generated cohomology. That is to say, for G any finite group scheme, and D(G) the Drinfeld double of the group ring kG, we show that the self-extension…
Using the relative derived categories, we prove that if an Artin algebra $A$ has a module $T$ with ${\rm inj.dim}T<\infty$ such that $^\perp T$ is finite, then the bounded derived category $D^b({\rm mod}A)$ admits a categorical resolution;…
Let $C$ be an arrangement of affine hyperplanes in a complex affine space $X$, $D$ the ring of algebraic differential operators on $X$. We define a category of quivers associated with $C$. A quiver is a collection of vector spaces, attached…
In these notes, an introduction to derived categories and derived functors is given. The main focus is the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety.
The main result of this paper is that there is sometimes a triangulated equivalence between $D_Q( A )$, the $Q$-shaped derived category of an algebra $A$, and $D( B )$, the classic derived category of a different algebra $B$. By…
In this paper we show that if $\mathscr{C}$ is a tangent category then the Ind-category $\operatorname{Ind}(\mathscr{C})$ is a tangent category as well with a tangent structure which locally looks like the tangent structure on…
Given a category $\mathcal C$ and a directed partially ordered set $J$, a certain category $pro^J -\mathcal C$ on inverse systems in $\mathcal C$ is constructed such that the ordinary pro-category $pro-\mathcal C$ is the most special case…
We use category theory to propose a unified approach to the Schur-Weyl dualities involving the general linear Lie algebras, their polynomial extensions and associated quantum deformations. We define multiplicative sequences of algebras…
A differential graded algebra can be viewed as an A-infinity algebra. By a theorem of Kadeishvili, a dga over a field admits a quasi-isomorphism from a minimal A-infinity algebra. We introduce the notion of a derived A-infinity algebra and…
We reconstruct finite-dimensional quantum theory from categorical principles. That is, we provide properties ensuring that a given physical theory described by a dagger compact category in which one may `discard' objects is equivalent to a…
Generalizing Eisenbud's matrix factorizations, we define factorization categories. Following work of Positselski, we define their associated derived categories. We construct specific resolutions of factorizations built from a choice of…
