In mathematics, a coherent topos is a topos generated by a collection of quasi-compact quasi-separated objects closed under finite products. [1]
Deligne's completeness theorem says a coherent topos has enough points. [2] William Lawvere noticed that Deligne's theorem is a variant of the Gödel completeness theorem for first-order logic. [3]
Gödel's completeness theorem is a fundamental theorem in mathematical logic that establishes a correspondence between semantic truth and syntactic provability in first-order logic.
Gödel's incompleteness theorems are two theorems of mathematical logic that are concerned with the limits of provability in formal axiomatic theories. These results, published by Kurt Gödel in 1931, are important both in mathematical logic and in the philosophy of mathematics. The theorems are widely, but not universally, interpreted as showing that Hilbert's program to find a complete and consistent set of axioms for all mathematics is impossible.
In mathematics, the Séminaire de Géométrie Algébrique du Bois Marie (SGA) was an influential seminar run by Alexander Grothendieck. It was a unique phenomenon of research and publication outside of the main mathematical journals that ran from 1960 to 1969 at the IHÉS near Paris. The seminar notes were eventually published in twelve volumes, all except one in the Springer Lecture Notes in Mathematics series.
This is a glossary of properties and concepts in category theory in mathematics.
In algebra, given a ring R, the category of left modules over R is the category whose objects are all left modules over R and whose morphisms are all module homomorphisms between left R-modules. For example, when R is the ring of integers Z, it is the same thing as the category of abelian groups. The category of right modules is defined in a similar way.
Isbell conjugacy is a fundamental construction of enriched category theory formally introduced by William Lawvere in 1986. That is a duality between covariant and contravariant representable presheaves associated with an objects of categories under the Yoneda embedding. Also, Lawvere says that; "Then the conjugacies are the first step toward expressing the duality between space and quantity fundamental to mathematics".
In mathematics, especially in topology, a stratified space is a topological space that admits or is equipped with a stratification, a decomposition into subspaces, which are nice in some sense.
In algebraic geometry, Nagata's compactification theorem, introduced by Nagata, implies that every abstract variety can be embedded in a complete variety, and more generally shows that a separated and finite type morphism to a Noetherian scheme S can be factored into an open immersion followed by a proper morphism.
Derived algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics that generalizes algebraic geometry to a situation where commutative rings, which provide local charts, are replaced by either differential graded algebras, simplicial commutative rings or -ring spectra from algebraic topology, whose higher homotopy groups account for the non-discreteness of the structure sheaf. Grothendieck's scheme theory allows the structure sheaf to carry nilpotent elements. Derived algebraic geometry can be thought of as an extension of this idea, and provides natural settings for intersection theory of singular algebraic varieties and cotangent complexes in deformation theory, among the other applications.
In mathematics, a pseudofunctorF is a mapping between 2-categories, or from a category to a 2-category, that is just like a functor except that and do not hold as exact equalities but only up to coherent isomorphisms.
In algebraic geometry, a cohomological descent is, roughly, a "derived" version of a fully faithful descent in the classical descent theory. This point is made precise by the below: the following are equivalent: in an appropriate setting, given a map a from a simplicial space X to a space S,
Higher Topos Theory is a treatise on the theory of ∞-categories written by American mathematician Jacob Lurie. In addition to introducing Lurie's new theory of ∞-topoi, the book is widely considered foundational to higher category theory. Since 2018, Lurie has been transferring the contents of Higher Topos Theory to Kerodon, an "online resource for homotopy-coherent mathematics" inspired by the Stacks Project.
In mathematics, specifically in homotopy theory and (higher) category theory, coherency is the standard that equalities or diagrams must satisfy when they hold "up to homotopy" or "up to isomorphism".
In algebraic geometry, a sheaf of algebras on a ringed space X is a sheaf of commutative rings on X that is also a sheaf of -modules. It is quasi-coherent if it is so as a module.
In algebraic geometry, the Gabriel–Rosenberg reconstruction theorem, introduced in Gabriel (1962), states that a quasi-separated scheme can be recovered from the category of quasi-coherent sheaves on it. The theorem is taken as a starting point for noncommutative algebraic geometry as the theorem says working with stuff on a space is equivalent to working with the space itself. It is named after Pierre Gabriel and Alexander L. Rosenberg.
In algebra, given a 2-monad T in a 2-category, a pseudoalgebra for T is a 2-category-version of algebra for T, that satisfies the laws up to coherent isomorphisms.
In category theory, a branch of mathematics, Mac Lane coherence theorem states, in the words of Saunders Mac Lane, “every diagram commutes”. More precisely, it states every formal diagram commutes, where "formal diagram" is an analog of well-formed formulae and terms in proof theory.
In deformation theory, a branch of mathematics, Deligne's conjecture is about the operadic structure on Hochschild cochain complex. Various proofs have been suggested by Dmitry Tamarkin, Alexander A. Voronov, James E. McClure and Jeffrey H. Smith, Maxim Kontsevich and Yan Soibelman, and others, after an initial input of construction of homotopy algebraic structures on the Hochschild complex. It is of importance in relation with string theory.
In mathematics, especially in topology, a pyknotic set is a sheaf of sets on the site of compact Hausdorff spaces. The notion was introduced by Barwick and Haine to provide a convenient setting for homological algebra. The term pyknotic comes from the Greek πυκνός, meaning dense, compact or thick. The notion can be compared to other approaches of introducing generalized spaces for the purpose of homological algebra such as Clausen and Scholze‘s condensed sets or Johnstone‘s topological topos.
