The filter quotient construction is a particular instance of a filtered colimit of categories. It has primarily been considered in the context of categorical logic, where it has been used effectively to construct non-trivial models, for…

We introduce and compare two approaches to equivariant homotopy theory in a topological or ordinary Quillen model category. For the topological model category of spaces, we generalize Piacenza's result that the categories of topological…

Let $I$ be a small category, $\mathcal{C}$ be the category $\mathbf{Cat}$, $\mathbf{Ac}$ or $\mathbf{Pos}$ of small categories, acyclic categories, or posets, respectively. Let $\mathcal{O}$ be a locally small class of objects in…

We construct a category $\OrdFor$ as an arboreal extension of $\Delta_{\mathrm{epi}}\subseteq\Delta$, whose morphisms are ordered forests composed by grafting. We define a full functor $\pi\colon \OrdFor\to\Delta_{\mathrm{epi}}^{op}$…

The relative cell complexes with respect to a generating set of cofibrations are an important class of morphisms in any model structure. In the particular case of the standard (algebraic) model structure on $\textbf{Top}$, we give a new…

We present a family of model structures on the category of multicomplexes. There is a cofibrantly generated model structure in which the weak equivalences are the morphisms inducing an isomorphism at a fixed stage of an associated spectral…

We establish a model structure on the category of strict omega-categories. The constructions leading to the model structure in question are expressed entirely within the scope of omega-categories, building on a set of generating…

We show that the theory of derivators (or, more generally, of fibered multiderivators) on all small categories is equivalent to this theory on partially ordered sets, in the following sense: Every derivator (more generally, every fibered…

In Part 1, we describe six projective-type model structures on the category of differential graded modules over a differential graded algebra A over a commutative ring R. When R is a field, the six collapse to three and are well-known, at…

We study and relate categories of modules, comodules and contramodules over a representation of a small category taking values in (co)algebras, in a manner similar to modules over a ringed space. As a result, we obtain a categorical…

We axiomatically define (pre-)Hilbert categories. The axioms resemble those for monoidal Abelian categories with the addition of an involutive functor. We then prove embedding theorems: any locally small pre-Hilbert category whose monoidal…

We propose a simplified definition of Quillen's fibration sequences in a pointed model category that fully captures the theory, although it is completely independent of the concept of action. This advantage arises from the understanding…

The homotopy category of a model structure on a weakly idempotent complete additive category is proved to be equivalent to the additive quotient of the category of cofibrant-fibrant objects with respect to the subcategory of…

We show that any closed model category of simplicial algebras over an algebraic theory is Quillen equivalent to a proper closed model category. By ``simplicial algebra'' we mean any category of algebras over a simplicial algebraic theory,…

We provide a more economical refined version of Evrard's categorical cocylinder factorization of a functor [Ev1,2]. We show that any functor between small categories can be factored into a homotopy equivalence followed by a (co)fibred…

It is widely believed that engineering a model to be invariant/equivariant improves generalisation. Despite the growing popularity of this approach, a precise characterisation of the generalisation benefit is lacking. By considering the…
