For a category $\mathcal E$ with finite limits and well-behaved countable coproducts, we construct a model structure, called the effective model structure, on the category of simplicial objects in $\mathcal E$, generalising the Kan--Quillen…
We give an elementary construction of the exact completion of a weakly lex category for categories enriched in the cartesian closed category $\mathsf{Pos}$ of partially ordered sets. Paralleling the ordinary case, we characterize categories…
For a small category K enriched over a suitable monoidal category V, the free completion of K under colimits is the presheaf category [K*,V]. If K is large, its free completion under colimits is the V-category PK of small presheaves on K,…
This work mainly concerns the -- here introduced -- category of $\mathscr Q$-sets and functional morphisms, where $\mathscr Q$ is a commutative semicartesian quantale. We describe, in detail, the limits and colimits of this complete and…
We show how several useful properties of Ind-constructions in $\infty$-categories extend to arbitrary free colimit completion constructions.
We prove that a category which is symmetric (relaxed) monoidal closed, (small) complete, well-powered and has a small cogenerating family, is cocomplete.
A completeness conjecture is advanced concerning the free small-colimit completion P(A) of a (possibly large) category A. The conjecture is based on the existence of a small generating-cogenerating set of objects in A. We sketch how the…
Greenlees has conjectured that the rational stable equivariant homotopy category of a compact Lie group always has an algebraic model. Based on this idea, we show that the category of rational local systems on a connected finite loop space…
We study positively closed and strongly positively closed topos-valued models of coherent theories. Positively closed is a global notion (it is defined in terms of all possible outgoing homomorphisms), while strongly positively closed is a…
Several important types of categories have been shown to be both exact and coexact (in the sense of Barr). The first type consists of abelian categories, which due to their self-dual definition, can be seen to be both exact and coexact by…
We prove a general theorem which includes most notions of "exact completion". The theorem is that "k-ary exact categories" are a reflective sub-2-category of "k-ary sites", for any regular cardinal k. A k-ary exact category is an exact…
We construct a compact closed category out of any symmetric monoidal category by freely adding adjoints to its objects. The morphisms of the completion are defined as string diagrams annotated by objects and morphisms from the original…
The present paper gives a generalization of cartesian closed categories, called cartesian closed categories with dependence, whose strict version induces categories with families that support 1-, Sigma- and Pi-types in the strict sense.…
We provide a characterisation of the category KH of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps by means of categorical properties only. To this aim we introduce a notion of filtrality for coherent categories, relating certain lattices of…
We investigate categories in which products distribute over coproducts, a structure we call doubly-infinitary distributive categories. Through a range of examples, we explore how this notion relates to established concepts such as…
Let $\mathcal K$ be a complete quasivariety of completely regular universal topological algebras of continuous signature $\mathcal E$ (which means that $\mathcal K$ is closed under taking subalgebras, Cartesian products, and includes all…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring and denote by $\mathsf{mod} R$ the category of finitely generated $R$-modules. In this paper, we study KE-closed subcategories of $\mathsf{mod} R$, that is, additive subcategories closed under…
In all $\kappa$-accessible additive categories, $\kappa$-pure monomorphisms and $\kappa$-pure epimorphisms are well-behaved, as shown in our previous paper arXiv:2311.02418. This is known to be not always true in $\kappa$-accessible…
The category of learners has a pleasant symmetric formulation when the morphisms are considered up to a coarser equivalence than the one originally described in the paper "Backprop as Functor". A quotient of this modified category gives a…
Directed spaces are natural topological extensions of dcpos in domain theory and form a cartesian closed category. We will show that the D-completion of free algebras over a Scott space $\Sigma L$, on the context of directed spaces, are…
