Connecting Hodge and Sakaguchi-Kuramoto through a mathematical framework for coupled oscillators on simplicial complexes

Phase synchronizations in models of coupled oscillators such as the Kuramoto model have been widely studied with pairwise couplings on arbitrary topologies, showing many unexpected dynamical behaviors. Here, based on a recent formulation the Kuramoto model ...

Homotopical relations between 2-dimensional categories and their infinity-analogues

Lyne Moser

In this thesis, we study the homotopical relations of 2-categories, double categories, and their infinity-analogues. For this, we construct homotopy theories for the objects of interest, and show that there are homotopically full embeddings of 2-categories ...

Filter quotients and non-presentable (∞,1)-toposes

Nima Rasekh

We define filter quotients of -categories and prove that filter quotients preserve the structure of an elementary -topos and in particular lift the filter quotient of the underlying elementary topos. We then specialize to the case of filter products of -ca ...

The cotangent complex and Thom spectra

Nima Rasekh

The cotangent complex of a map of commutative rings is a central object in deformation theory. Since the 1990s, it has been generalized to the homotopical setting of E-infinity-ring spectra in various ways. In this work we first establish, in the context o ...

The Homotopy Theory Of Coalgebras Over Simplicial Comonads

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Magdalena Kedziorek

We apply the Acyclicity Theorem of Hess, Kedziorek, Riehl, and Shipley (recently corrected by Garner, Kedziorek, and Riehl) to establishing the existence of model category structure on categories of coalgebras over comonads arising from simplicial adjuncti ...

Towards an (∞,2)-category of homotopy coherent monads in an ∞-cosmos

Dimitri Zaganidis

This thesis is part of a program initiated by Riehl and Verity to study the category theory of (infinity,1)-categories in a model-independent way. They showed that most models of (infinity,1)-categories form an infinity-cosmos K, which is essentially a cat ...

A Looping-Delooping Adjunction For Topological Spaces

Martina Rovelli

Every principal G-bundle over X is classified up to equivalence by a homotopy class X -> BG, where BG is the classifying space of G. On the other hand, for every nice topological space X Milnor constructed a strict model of its loop space (Omega) over tild ...

Towards new invariants for principal bundles

Martina Rovelli

We investigate the theory of principal bundles from a homotopical point of view. In the first part of the thesis, we prove a classification of principal bundles over a fixed base space, dual to the well-known classification of bundles with a fixed structur ...

A necessary and sufficient condition for induced model structures

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Magdalena Kedziorek

A common technique for producing a new model category structure is to lift the fibrations and weak equivalences of an existing model structure along a right adjoint. Formally dual but technically much harder is to lift the cofibrations and weak equivalence ...

Conditionally flat functors on spaces and groups

Jérôme Scherer

Consider a fibration sequence of topological spaces which is preserved as such by some functor , so that is again a fibration sequence. Pull the fibration back along an arbitrary map into the base space. Does the pullback fibration enjoy the same property? ...

The Boardman-Vogt tensor product of operadic bimodules

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

We define and study a lift of the Boardman-Vogt tensor product of operads to bimodules over operad ...

Normal and conormal maps in homotopy theory

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

Let M be a monoidal category endowed with a distinguished class of weak equivalences and with appropriately compatible classifying bundles for monoids and comonoids. We define and study homotopy-invariant notions of normality for maps of monoids and of con ...

Homotopic Descent over Monoidal Model Categories

The starting point for this project is the article of Kathryn Hess [11]. In this article, a homotopic version of monadic descent is developed. In the classical setting, one constructs a category D(𝕋) of coalgebras in the Eilenberg-Moore category of ...

A general framework for homotopic descent and codescent

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

In this paper we elaborate a general homotopy-theoretic framework in which to study problems of descent and completion and of their duals, codescent and cocompletion. Our approach to homotopic (co)descent and to derived (co)completion can be viewed as $\in ...

Catégories simpliciales enrichies et K-théorie de Waldhausen

Ilias Amrani

This thesis, which presents a new approach to the algebraic K-theory, is divided into two parts. The first one is devoted to the category of small simplicial categories. First, we construct a new model structure on sCat = [Δop,Cat] which is called the diag ...

Coalgèbres d'Alexander-Whitney : un modèle algébrique pour les espaces topologiques

Théophile Naïto

The goal of this work is to study Alexander-Whitney coalgebras (first defined in [HPST06]) from a topological point of view. An Alexander-Whitney coalgebra is a coassociative chain coalgebra over Z with an extra algebraic structure : the comultiplication m ...
