For a simply connected, compact, simple Lie group G, the moduli space of flat G-bundles over a closed surface is known to be pre-quantizable at integer levels. For non-simply connected G, however, integrality of the level is not sufficient…

The parameterized complexity of a problem is considered "settled" once it has been shown to lie in FPT or to be complete for a class in the W-hierarchy or a similar parameterized hierarchy. Several natural parameterized problems have,…

In this paper we study flatness of the restriction on some special subgerms (e.g. the reduction and the unmixed part) of the total space of a flat morphism over a smooth base space. We give a relationship between reducedness of the total…

We present a setting for the study of torsion theories in general categories. The idea is to associate, with any pair ($\mathcal T$, $\mathcal F$) of full replete subcategories in a category $\mathcal C$, the corresponding full subcategory…

It is known since 1973 that Lawvere's notion of (Cauchy-)complete enriched category is meaningful for metric spaces: it captures exactly Cauchy-complete metric spaces. In this paper we introduce the corresponding notion of Lawvere…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler unibranch complex analytic space of pure dimension. Fix a big class $\alpha$ with smooth representative $\theta$ and a model potential $\phi$ with positive mass. We define and the study non-pluripolar products…

Let $Q$ denote the space of signed measures on the Borel $\sigma$-algebra of a separable complete space $X$. We endow $Q$ with the norm $\|q\|=\sup|\int\phi dq|$, where the supremum is taken over all Lipschitz with constant 1 functions…

In this paper we investigate Cauchy completeness and exponentiablity for quantale enriched categories, paying particular attention to probabilistic metric spaces.

Following Lawvere's description of metric spaces using enriched category theory, we introduce a change in the base of enrichment that allows description of some aspects of (relativistic) causal spaces. All such spaces are Cauchy complete,…

In this article, the author proposes another way to define the completion of a metric space, which is different from the classical one via the dense property, and prove the equivalence between two definitions. This definition is based on…

In this paper, we present a constructive generalization of metric and uniform spaces by introducing a new class of spaces, called cover spaces. These spaces form a topological concrete category with a full reflective subcategory of complete…

Ge and Lin (2015) proved the existence and the uniqueness of p-Cauchy completions of partial metric spaces under symmetric denseness. They asked if every (non-empty) partial metric space $X$ has a p-Cauchy completion $\bar{X}$ such that $X$…

We establish a generalization of Littlewood's criterion on $L^\alpha$-flatness by proving that there is no $L^\alpha$-flat polynomials, $\alpha>0$, within the class of analytic polynomials on the unit circle of the form $…

Completeness for a (topological) space is often based on the existence of special structures (such as metrics, uniformities, proximities, convergences, etc) that explicitly induce the topology, making the completeness induction-dependent.…

Building on the notion of normed category as suggested by Lawvere, we introduce notions of Cauchy convergence and cocompleteness which differ from proposals in previous works. Key to our approach is to treat them consequentially as…

We capture in the context of lex colimits, introduced by Garner and Lack, the universal property of the free regular and Barr-exact completions of a weakly lex category. This is done by introducing a notion of flatness for functors…

We formalize the ``metric bundle'' viewpoint by defining, for any smooth $n$--manifold $M$, the open fiberwise cones $\mathcal{G}^{p,q}\subset S^2\Tstar M$ of nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms with fixed signature $(p,q)$, and we…

Employing a formal analogy between ordered sets and topological spaces, over the past years we have investigated a notion of cocompleteness for topological, approach and other kind of spaces. In this new context, the down-set monad becomes…

Exhibiting a deep connection between purely geometric problems and real algebra, the complexity class $\exists \mathbb{R}$ plays a crucial role in the study of geometric problems. Sometimes $\exists \mathbb{R}$ is referred to as the 'real…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper is concerned with the set of scalar-flat metrics which are in the conformal class of g and have the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. We prove that this…
