We prove a chain rule for the Goodwillie calculus of functors from spectra to spectra. We show that the (higher) derivatives of a composite functor $FG$ at a base object $X$ are given by taking the composition product (in the sense of…

We study the structure possessed by the Goodwillie derivatives of a pointed homotopy functor of based topological spaces. These derivatives naturally form a bimodule over the operad consisting of the derivatives of the identity functor. We…

We prove a generalization of the Arone-Ching chain rule for Goodwillie derivatives by showing that for any pair of reduced finitary functors $F \colon \mathcal{D} \to \mathcal{E}$ and $G \colon \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}$ between…

The goal of this paper is to furnish a literature on Goodwillie calculus for functors defined between categories which derive from chain complexes over a ground field $\Bbbk.$ We characterize homogeneous functors $F: \mathcal{C}…

Let $X$ be a perfect, compact subset of the complex plane, and let $D^{(1)}(X)$ denote the (complex) algebra of continuously complex-differentiable functions on $X$. Then $D^{(1)}(X)$ is a normed algebra of functions but, in some cases,…

Recently, the Johnson-McCarthy discrete calculus for homotopy functors was extended to include functors from an unbased simplicial model category to spectra. This paper completes the constructions needed to ensure that there exists a…

We define a theory of Goodwillie calculus for enriched functors from finite pointed simplicial G-sets to symmetric G-spectra, where G is a finite group. We extend a notion of G-linearity suggested by Blumberg to define stably excisive and…

We prove two theorems about Goodwillie calculus and use those theorems to describe new models for Goodwillie derivatives of functors between pointed compactly-generated infinity-categories. The first theorem say that the construction of…

Let F be a homotopy functor with values in the category of spectra. We show that partially stabilized cross-effects of F have an action of a certain operad. For functors from based spaces to spectra, it is the Koszul dual of the little…

We show that the category of $n$-excisive functors from the $\infty$-category of spectra to a target stable $\infty$-category $\mathbf{E}$ is equivalent to the category of $\mathbf{E}$-valued Mackey functors on an indexing category built…

Recent work of Biedermann and R\"ondigs has translated Goodwillie's calculus of functors into the language of model categories. Their work focuses on symmetric multilinear functors and the derivative appears only briefly. In this paper we…

Many modern numerical methods in computational science and engineering rely on derivatives of mathematical models for the phenomena under investigation. The computation of these derivatives often represents the bottleneck in terms of…

Classical spectral theory provides powerful tools for analyzing linear operators, but does not extend naturally to nonlinear or compositional settings. In particular, there is no general way to transport spectral invariants in a functorial…

We give a correct proof that for all connected spaces X, the functor X |-> A(\Sigma(X)) splits up to homotopy as a product of its Goodwillie derivatives.
