We prove that Ringel duality in the category of strict polynomial functors can be interpreted as derived functors of non-additive functors (in the sense of Dold and Puppe). We give applications of this fact for both theories.
We show that direct summands of certain additive functors arising as bifunctors with a fixed argument in an abelian category are again of that form whenever the fixed argument has finite length or, more generally, satisfies the descending…
In this paper we compute extension groups in the category of strict polynomial superfunctors and thereby exhibit certain "universal extension classes" for the general linear supergroup. Some of these classes restrict to the universal…
In prior work we described how the Cuntz-Pimsner construction may be viewed as a functor. The domain of this functor is a category whose objects are $C^*$-correspondences and morphisms are isomorphism classes of certain pairs comprised of a…
We want to compute generic $\mathrm{Ext}$-spaces of twisted polynomial functors in relation to the $\mathrm{Ext}$-spaces of the untwisted ones, modulo a parametrisation. Thanks to the study of a spectral sequence we get to a computation in…
We show that Shipley's "detection functor" for symmetric spectra generalizes to motivic symmetric spectra. As an application, we construct motivic strict ring spectra representing morphic cohomology, semi-topological $K$-theory, and…
The paper establishes new relationship between cohomology, extensions and automorphisms of quandles. We derive a four term exact sequence relating quandle 1-cocycles, second quandle cohomology and certain group of automorphisms of an…
We develop a theory of two-parameter quantum polynomial functors. Similar to how (strict) polynomial functors give a new interpretation of polynomial representations of the general linear groups $\operatorname{GL}_n$, the two-parameter…
We investigate scalar restriction, scalar extension, and scalar coextension functors for graded modules, including their interplay with coarsening functors, graded tensor products, and graded Hom functors. This leads to several…
We explain how the approach of Andre and Quillen to defining cohomology and homology as suitable derived functors extends to generalized (co)homology theories, and how this identification may be used to study the relationship between them.…
We study generalizations of Schur functors from categories consisting of flags of vector spaces. We give different descriptions of the category of such functors in terms of representations of certain combinatorial categories and infinite…
A theorem due to Kazhdan and Ziegler implies that, by substituting linear forms for its variables, a homogeneous polynomial of sufficiently high strength specialises to any given polynomial of the same degree in a bounded number of…
We study certain integer valued length functions on triangulated categories and establish a correspondence between such functions and cohomological functors taking values in the category of finite length modules over some ring. The…
We introduce the formal extension of the Whitney functor and the polynomial extension of the tempered cohomology functor, and prove a natural topological duality between them.
We use 4-valent planar graphs and singular cobordisms (called foams) to construct an integral doubly-graded cohomology for tangles, and in particular for links, whose graded Euler characteristic yields the sl(n) link polynomial (for n > 3).
There is a lot of redundancy in the usual definition of adjoint functors. We define and prove the core of what is required. First we do this in the hom-enriched context. Then we do it in the cocompletion of a bicategory with respect to…
We introduce heavily separable functors of the second kind and study them in three different situations. The first of these is with restrictions and extensions of scalars for modules over small preadditive categories. The second is with…
Inspired by recent works on rings satisfying Auslander's conjecture, we study invariants, which we call Auslander bounds, and prove that they have strong relations to some homological conjectures.
In this paper, we first introduce stable functors with respect to a preenveloping/precovering subcategory and investigate some of their properties. Using that we then introduce and study a relative complete cohomology theory in abelian…
Several well known polytopal constuctions are examined from the functorial point of view. A naive analogy between the Billera-Sturmfels fiber polytope and the abelian kernel is disproved by an infinite explicit series of polytopes. A…
