Formalization of higher category theory II Semester SoSe 2024
Lecturer Denis-Charles Cisinski
Type of course (Veranstaltungsart) Vorlesung
Contents This lecture series aims art introducing higher category theory in an axiomatic way. Instead of building the theory of higher category theory from scratch, we introduced in the previous lecture series higher category theory formally (in particular very rigorously),with the aim of having access to its main features as quickly as possible: the Yoneda embedding, the straightening/unstraightening correspondence relating cocartesian fibrations with functors taking values in the infinity-category of infinity-categories,the theory of Kan extensions. We will now explore its consequences: the theory of presentable categories, topoi, stable categories, basics on K-theory. Our axiomatic approach will not only provide tools to comprehend the important aspect of higher categories as they are used in practice (derived algebraic geometry, homotopical algebra...) but also in more general contexts (e.g. higher category theory internally in any higher topos) and in logic (dependent type theory)).
