We quiver-interpret the classical simplicial theory - including the cosimplex category $\Delta$, Dold-Kan correspondence, and Hochschild homology - as a certain Q-homotopy theory of type $A$. For the cyclic and cubical theories, we proceed…

This paper gives an introduction to homotopy descent, and its applications in algebraic $K$-theory computations for fields. On the \'etale site of a field, a fibrant model of a simplicial presheaf can be constructed from naive Galois…

Higher inductive types are a class of type-forming rules, introduced to provide basic (and not-so-basic) homotopy-theoretic constructions in a type-theoretic style. They have proven very fruitful for the "synthetic" development of homotopy…

We prove that a weak equivalence between two cofibrant (colored) props in chain complexes induces a Dwyer-Kan equivalence between the simplicial localizations of the associated categories of algebras. This homotopy invariance under base…

A simplicial complex is a set equipped with a down-closed family of distinguished finite subsets. This structure, usually viewed as codifying a triangulated space, is used here directly, to describe "spaces" whose geometric realisation can…

The purpose of this paper is to generalise Sullivan's rational homotopy theory to non-nilpotent spaces, providing an alternative approach to defining Toen's schematic homotopy types over any field k of characteristic zero. New features…

We study the homotopy right Kan extension of homotopy sheaves on a category to its free cocompletion, i.e. to its category of presheaves. Any pretopology on the original category induces a canonical pretopology of generalised coverings on…

If $S$ is a scheme of finite type over $k=\cc $, let $\Xx /S$ denote the big etale site of schemes over $S$. We introduce {\em presentable group sheaves}, a full subcategory of the category of sheaves of groups on $\Xx /S$ which is closed…

Homotopy type theory is a modern foundation for mathematics that introduces the univalence axiom and is particularly suitable for the study of homotopical mathematics and its formalization via proof assistants. In order to better comprehend…

We produce group structures on certain sets of topological vector bundles of fixed rank. In particular, we put a group structure on complex rank $2$ bundles on $\mathbb{C}P^3$ with fixed first Chern class. We show that this binary operation…

We prove that for any test category $A$, in the sense of Grothendieck, satisfying a compatibility condition between homology equivalences and weak equivalences of presheaves, the homotopy category of abelian presheaves on $A$ is equivalent…

Diffeological spaces are generalizations of smooth manifolds. In this paper, we study the homotopy theory of diffeological spaces. We begin by proving basic properties of the smooth homotopy groups that we will need later. Then we introduce…

We develop the framework for augmented homotopical algebraic geometry. This is an extension of homotopical algebraic geometry, which itself is a homotopification of classical algebraic geometry. To do so, we define the notion of…

We prove a correspondence between $\kappa$-small fibrations in simplicial presheaf categories equipped with the injective or projective model structure (and left Bousfield localizations thereof) and relatively $\kappa$-compact maps in their…

We put a Quillen model structure on the category of small categories enriched in simplicial $k$-modules and non-negatively graded chain complexes of $k$-modules, where $k$ is a commutative ring. The model structure is obtained by transfer…

In this paper, we try to realize the unbounded derived category of an abelian category as the homotopy category of a Quillen model structure on the category of unbounded chain complexes. We construct such a model structure based on…

In his book on model categories, Hovey asked whether the 2-category $\mathbf{Mod}$ of model categories admits a "model 2-category structure" whose weak equivalences are the Quillen equivalences. We show that $\mathbf{Mod}$ does not have…
