A new construction to associate an internal category to an enriched one is presented. The key concept is that of extensive ambient category, and the construction follows the one that associates a category whose idempotents split to a given…
We prove that the K-theory of an exact quasicategory can be computed via a higher categorical variant of the Q construction. This construction yields a quasicategory whose weak homotopy type is a delooping of the K-theory space. We show…
We give a description of simple functors taking finitely generated values, from a small additive category to the category of vector spaces over a field. This result is analogous to Steinberg's tensor product theorems in group representation…
We generalize the construction of tensor categories of endomorphisms of a type III factor $M$ associated with a $G$-kernel, from the case of a discrete group $G$ to that of a compact second countable group. Our approach is based on the…
We generalise to a group homomorphism $\tau$ the $\chi$-graded categories of S\"{o}zer and Virelizier. These are categories in which both morphisms and objects have compatible degrees. We give a 'half-enriched' Yoneda lemma, a structure…
We explain why the naive definition of a natural exact category structure on complete, separated topological vector spaces with linear topology fails. In particular, contrary to arXiv:0711.2527, the category of such topological vector…
We give a construction of triangulated categories as quotients of exact categories where the subclass of objects sent to zero is defined by a triple of functors. This includes the cases of homotopy and stable module categories. These…
We introduce a notion of complexity of diagrams (and in particular of objects and morphisms) in an arbitrary category, as well as a notion of complexity of functors between categories equipped with complexity functions. We discuss several…
In this paper, we extend the notion of modular functor and fusion category to what we called $G$ equivariant modular functor and $G$ equivariant fusion category, where $G$ is a finite group, and establish a correspondence between between…
We show that the idempotent completion of an n-angulated category admits a unique n-angulated structure such that the inclusion is an n-angulated functor, which satisfies a universal property.
We investigate the connection between left exact $\infty$-functors between finitely complete quasicategories and exact functors between fibration categories, describing a procedure to approximate flat $\infty$-functors of the former type by…
The notion of relative derived category with respect to a subcategory is introduced. A triangle-equivalence, which extends a theorem of Gao and Zhang [Gorenstein derived categories, \emph{J. Algebra} \textbf{323} (2010) 2041-2057] to the…
We investigate several categories related to transition structures, using a mixture of algebraic and topological methods. We show how two such categories are connected by a contravariant adjunction. This is the most detailed of a family of…
The work is devoted to the extension groups in the category of functors from a small category to an additive category with an Abelian structure in the sense of Heller. It is constructed a spectral sequence which converges to the extension…
We give a natural notion of (non-exact) integral functor in the context of k-linear and graded categories. In this broader sense, we prove that every k-linear and graded functor is integral.
In this paper we present some applications of Ann-category theory to classification of crossed bimodules over rings, classification of ring extensions of the type of a crossed bimodule.
We define the notion of a $\lambda$-definable category, a generalisation of the notion of definable category from the model theory of modules. Let ${\cal C}$ be a $\lambda$-accessible additive category. We characterise the additive functors…
This is a major update of the previous version. The methods of the paper are now fully constructive and the style is "formalization ready" with the emphasis on the possibility of formalization both in type theory and in constructive set…
We introduce a notion of $\Theta$-categories, which is a refinement of the notion of symmetric monoidal $\infty$-categories. We use this notion to prove a Tannakian duality statement, relating $\Theta$-categories with fpqc-stacks by means…
In this paper we provide an overview of category theory, focussing on applications in physics. The route we follow is motivated by the final goal of understanding anyons and topological QFTs using category theory. This entails introducing…
