For two discrete metric spaces, $X$ and $Y$ we consider metrics on $X\sqcup Y$ compatible with the metrics on $X$ and $Y$. As morphisms from $X$ to $Y$ we consider the Roe bimodules, i.e. the norm closures of bounded finite propagation…

We make some beginning observations about the category $\mathbb{E}\mathrm{q}$ of equivalence relations on the set of natural numbers, where a morphism between two equivalence relations $R,S$ is a mapping from the set of $R$-equivalence…

In the category of monoids we characterize monomorphisms that are normal, in an appropriate sense, to internal reflexive relations, preorders or equivalence relations. The zero-classes of such internal relations are first described in terms…

Given a right adjoint functor between triangulated categories and an object in the target category, we show that the unit map of adjunction on that object is a split monomorphism if and only if the object belongs to the additive closure of…

We introduce two classes of morphisms over the alphabet $A=\{0,1\}$ whose fixed points contain infinitely many antipalindromic factors. An antipalindrome is a finite word invariant under the action of the antimorphism…

We point out that double categories provide a natural setting for modular functors obtained by a (bicategorical) string-net construction: The source of the modular functor -- which is now a double functor -- is a symmetric monoidal double…

We prove that a certain homological epimorphism between two algebras induces a triangle equivalence between their singularity categories. Applying the result to a construction of matrix algebras, we describe the singularity categories of…

The term integrable asymptotically conformal at a point for a quasiconformal map defined on a domain is defined. Furthermore, we prove that there is a normal form for this kind attracting or repelling or super-attracting fixed point with…

Let M be a monoidal category endowed with a distinguished class of weak equivalences and with appropriately compatible classifying bundles for monoids and comonoids. We define and study homotopy-invariant notions of normality for maps of…

In this paper we introduce congruence spaces, which are topological spaces that are canonically attached to monoid schemes and that reflect closed topological properties. This leads to satisfactory topological characterizations of closed…

Watts's Theorem says that a right exact functor F:Mod R-->Mod S that commutes with direct sums is isomorphic to -\otimes_R B where B is the R-S-bimodule FR. The main result in this paper is the following: if A is a cocomplete abelian…

We show that the classifying space functor $B: Mon \to Top*$ from the category of topological monoids to the category of based spaces is left adjoint to the Moore loop space functor $\Omega': Top*\to Mon$ after we have localized $Mon$ with…

We develop a homotopy theory for additive categories endowed with endofunctors, analogous to the concept of a model structure. We use it to construct the homotopy theory of a Hovey triple (which consists of two compatible complete cotorsion…

We consider the problem of characterizing isomorphisms of types, or, equivalently, constructive cardinality of sets, in the simultaneous presence of disjoint unions, Cartesian products, and exponentials. Mostly relying on results about…

Coherence in a monoidal category asserts that all morphisms built from structural isomorphisms with a fixed source and target coincide. These structural isomorphisms include, in particular, the associators. Linearly distributive categories…

It is shown that the existence of a biseparating map between a large class of spaces of vector-valued continuous functions A(X,E) and A(Y,F) implies that some compactifications of X and Y are homeomorphic. In some cases, conditions are…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity. This paper investigates the structure of the monomorphism category of large $R$-modules and establishes connections with the category of contravariant functors defined on finitely presented…

It is known that factorisation systems in categories can be viewed as unitary pseudo algebras for the "squaring" monad in Cat. We show in this note that an analogous fact holds for proper (i.e., epi-mono) factorisation systems and a…

We give the definitions of model bicategory and $q$-homotopy, which are natural generalizations of the notions of model category and homotopy to the context of bicategories. For any model bicategory $\mathcal{C}$, denote by…

Bimorphic lenses are a simplification of polymorphic lenses that (like polymorphic lenses) have a type defined by 4 parameters, but which are defined in a monomorphic type system (i.e. an ordinary category with finite products). We show…
