Formulates a new connection between topological and geometric categories.

Completes reduction scheme in Lagrange-Poincaré category.

We classify the torsion pairs in a tube category and show that they are in bijection with maximal rigid objects in the extension of the tube category containing the Pruefer and adic modules. We show that the annulus geometric model for the tube category can be extended to the larger category and interpret torsion pairs…

Computing PL geometric category in 2D is NP-hard.

We give a geometric model for a tube category in terms of homotopy classes of oriented arcs in an annulus with marked points on its boundary. In particular, we interpret the dimensions of extension groups of degree 1 between indecomposable objects in terms of negative geometric intersection numbers between correspondin…

The study explores how different Grothendieck topologies and functors between categories preserve locality.

New coarse LS-category introduced for groups and spaces.

Geometric invariant theory introduces stability conditions mirroring abelian category theory.

New geometric model for knot homology using monodromic Hecke category.

Spaces over BO are equivalent to thickened manifolds.

Simplified 3D Dijkgraaf-Witten theory with defects explained geometrically.

We present a construction of a 2-Hilbert space of sections of a bundle gerbe, a suitable candidate for a prequantum 2-Hilbert space in higher geometric quantisation. We introduce a direct sum on the morphism categories in the 2-category of bundle gerbes and show that these categories are cartesian monoidal and abelian.…

Geometrically classifies total stability spaces for Dynkin diagrams.

We show that the category of vector fields on a geometric stack has the structure of a Lie 2-algebra. This proves a conjecture of R.~Hepworth. The construction uses a Lie groupoid that presents the geometric stack. We show that the category of vector fields on the Lie groupoid is equivalent to the category of vector fi…

For a finite group $G$, we define an equivariant cobordism category $\mathcal{C}_d^G$. Objects of the category are $(d-1)$-dimensional closed smooth $G$-manifolds and morphisms are smooth $d$-dimensional equivariant cobordisms. We identify the homotopy type of its classifying space (i.e. geometric realization of its si…

This paper presents KeypointNet, an end-to-end geometric reasoning framework to learn an optimal set of category-specific 3D keypoints, along with their detectors. Given a single image, KeypointNet extracts 3D keypoints that are optimized for a downstream task. We demonstrate this framework on 3D pose estimation by pro…

The distributional category bounds manifold invariants and imposes constraints.

UMAP connects to Information Geometry principles.

Geometric Graph Alignment enhances IoT intrusion detection using NID data.

We continue the program of structural differential geometry that begins with the notion of a tangent category, an axiomatization of structural aspects of the tangent functor on the category of smooth manifolds. In classical geometry, having an affine structure on a manifold is equivalent to having a flat torsion-free c…

Vector bundles and double vector bundles, or $2$-fold vector bundles, arise naturally for instance as base spaces for algebraic structures such as Lie algebroids, Courant algebroids and double Lie algebroids. It is known that all these structures possess a unified description using the language of super\-geometry and g…

We realise Stroppel's extended arc algebra in the Fukaya-Seidel category of a natural Lefschetz fibration on the generic fiber of the adjoint quotient map on a type $A$ nilpotent slice with two Jordan blocks, and hence obtain a symplectic interpretation of certain parabolic two-block versions of Bernstein-Gelfan'd-Gelf…

Extends Gelfand duality to various geometric and analytical categories.

The book develops a new bordism-theoretic approach to understanding orientations of moduli spaces.

Lie n-algebroids and Lie infinity algebroids are usually thought of exclusively in supergeometric or algebraic terms. In this work, we apply the higher derived brackets construction to obtain a geometric description of Lie n-algebroids by means of brackets and anchors. Moreover, we provide a geometric description of mo…

We construct a pairing, which we call factorization homology, between framed manifolds and higher categories. The essential geometric notion is that of a vari-framing of a stratified manifold, which is a framing on each stratum together with a coherent system of compatibilities of framings along links between strata. O…

This paper connects complex hyperkähler structures to Donaldson-Thomas invariants.

The paper defines a new metric space invariant and computes it for various manifolds.

In this paper we study the topology of the cobordism category of open and closed strings. This is a 2-category in which the objects are compact one-manifolds whose boundary components are labeled by an indexing set (the set of "D-branes"), the 1-morphisms are cobordisms of manifolds with boundary, and the 2-morphisms a…

We prove that the wrapped Fukaya category of any $2n$-dimensional Weinstein manifold (or, more generally, Weinstein sector) $W$ is generated by the unstable manifolds of the index $n$ critical points of its Liouville vector field. Our proof is geometric in nature, relying on a surgery formula for Floer cohomology and t…

This work defines a categorical notion of principal bundles.

Unified view on big bang singularities from initial data.

In this paper, we introduce a category of graded commutative rings with certain algebraic morphisms, to investigate the cobordism category of plumbed 3-manifolds. In particular, we define a non-associative distributive algebra that gives necessary conditions for an abstract morphism between the homologies of two plumbe…

We show that conically smooth stratified spaces embed fully faithfully into $\infty$-categories. This articulates a stratified generalization of the homotopy hypothesis proposed by Grothendieck. As such, each $\infty$-category defines a stack on conically smooth stratified spaces, and we identify the descent conditions…

FiberNet integrates geometry into machine learning for clearer classification.

The paper geometrizes N-manifolds using symmetric vector bundles.

Tangent categories are categories equipped with a tangent functor: an endofunctor with certain natural transformations which make it behave like the tangent bundle functor on the category of smooth manifolds. They provide an abstract setting for differential geometry by axiomatizing key aspects of the subject which all…

New proof of chain duality for simplicial complexes.

Abstract: New geometric incarnation of isomonodromy functors.

Discusses new probabilistic morphisms and geometric methods in machine and statistical learning.

The paper defines a category of Lagrangian correspondences in super Hilbert spaces and constructs a functorial field theory.

In this work we introduce the category of multiplicative sections of an $\la$-groupoid. We prove that this category carries natural strict Lie 2-algebra structures, which are Morita invariant. As applications, we study the algebraic structure underlying multiplicative vector fields on a Lie groupoid and in particular v…

In our previous paper entitled "Axiomatic differential geometry -towards model categories of differential geometry-, we have given a category-theoretic framework of differential geometry. As the first part of our series of papers concerned with differential-geometric developments within the above axiomatic scheme, this…

We analyse the moduli spaces of superconformal field theories (SCFTs). For N=2 we find an enhanced moduli space which in geometrical terms corresponds to tori with two independent complex structures. To explain the precise relation with the moduli space of SCFTs on K3 surfaces as described by Aspinwall and Morrison, we…

The circle transfer $QΣ(LX_{hS^1})_+ \to QLX_+$ has appeared in several contexts in topology. In this note we observe that this map admits a geometric re-interpretation as a morphism of cobordism categories of 0-manifolds and 1-cobordisms. Let $C_1(X)$ denote the 1-dimensional cobordism category and let $Circ(X) \subse…

We prove that the category of abelian gerbes with connection over a smooth manifold is equivalent to a certain category of principal bundles over the free loop space. These bundles are equipped with a connection and with a "fusion" product with respect to triples of paths. The equivalence is established by explicit fun…
