We prove that in any $\mathbb{Z}^n$-periodic triangulation of $\mathbb{R}^n$ the number of $\mathbb{Z}^n$-orbits of $n$-dimensional simplices is at least the tensor rank of the $n$th determinant tensor. The latter is known to be at least…

While chain complexes are equipped with a differential $d$ satisfying $d^2 = 0$, their generalizations called $N$-complexes have a differential $d$ satisfying $d^N = 0$. In this paper we show that the lax nerve of the category of chain…

Let T be a Hom-finite triangulated Krull-Schmidt category over a field k. Inspired by a definition of Koenig and Liu, we say that a family S of pairwise orthogonal objects in T with trivial endomorphism rings is a simple-minded system if…

We introduce the concept of a dendroidal set. This is a generalization of the notion of a simplicial set, specially suited to the study of operads in the context of homotopy theory. We define a category of trees, which extends the category…

The most natural notion of a simplicial nerve for a (weak) bicategory was given by Duskin, who showed that a simplicial set is isomorphic to the nerve of a $(2,1)$-category (i.e. a bicategory with invertible $2$-morphisms) if and only if it…

One can associate to any strict globular $\omega$-category three augmented simplicial nerves called the globular nerve, the branching and the merging semi-cubical nerves. If this strict globular $\omega$-category is freely generated by a…

The category of dendroidal sets is an extension of that of simplicial sets, suitable for defining nerves of operads rather than just of categories. In this paper, we prove some basic properties of inner Kan complexes in the category of…

Any tricategory characteristically has associated various simplicial or pseudo-simplicial objects. This paper explores the relationship amongst three of them: the pseudo-simplicial bicategory so-called Grothendieck nerve of the tricategory,…

In this paper we introduce a functor, called the simplicial nerve of an A-infinity category, defined on the category of (small) A-infinity categories with values in simplicial sets. We prove that the simplicial nerve of any A-infinity…

Given a simplicial complex and a collection of subcomplexes covering it, the nerve theorem, a fundamental tool in topological combinatorics, guarantees a certain connectivity of the simplicial complex when connectivity conditions on the…

A simplicial set is said to be non-singular if the representing map of each non-degenerate simplex is degreewise injective. The inclusion into the category of simplicial sets, of the full subcategory whose objects are the non-singular…

We study the problem of recognizing whether a given abstract simplicial complex $K$ is the $k$-skeleton of the nerve of $j$-dimensional convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We denote this problem by $R(k,j,d)$. As a main contribution, we unify…

This article introduces a theory of proximal nerve complexes and nerve spokes, restricted to the triangulation of finite regions in the Euclidean plane. A nerve complex is a collection of filled triangles with a common vertex, covering a…

Let $X$ be a simplicial complex on vertex set $V$. We say that $X$ is $d$-representable if it is isomorphic to the nerve of a family of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We define the $d$-boxicity of $X$ as the minimal $k$ such that $X$ can be…

Given a simplicial group G, there are two known classifying simplicial set constructions, the Kan classifying simplicial set Wbar G and Diag N G, where N denotes the dimensionwise nerve. They are known to be weakly homotopy equivalent. We…

An input pair $(A,B)$ is triangular input normal if and only if $A$ is triangular and $AA^* + BB^* = I_n$, where $I_n$ is theidentity matrix. Input normal pairs generate an orthonormal basis for the impulse response. Every input pair may be…

Given a triangulation of a closed, oriented, irreducible, atoroidal 3-manifold every oriented, incompressible surface may be isotoped into normal position relative to the triangulation. Such a normal oriented surface is then encoded by…

The basic data for a skew-monoidal category are the same as for a monoidal category, except that the constraint morphisms are no longer required to be invertible. The constraints are given a specific orientation and satisfy Mac Lane's five…

We define a bar construction endofunctor on the category of commutative augmented monoids $A$ of a symmetric monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ endowed with a left adjoint monoidal functor $F:s\mathbf{Set}\to \mathcal{V}$. To do this, we need…

We relate the relative nerve $\mathrm{N}_f(\mathcal{D})$ of a diagram of simplicial sets $f \colon \mathcal{D} \to \mathsf{sSet}$ with the Grothendieck construction $\mathsf{Gr} F$ of a simplicial functor $F \colon \mathcal{D} \to…
