Ramification and descent in homotopy theory and derived algebraic geometry

John D. Berman

We introduce notions of unramified and totally ramified maps in great generality - for commutative rings, schemes, ring spectra, or derived schemes. We prove that the definition is…

Enriched infinity categories I: enriched presheaves

John D. Berman

This is the first of a series of papers on enriched infinity categories, seeking to reduce enriched higher category theory to the higher algebra of presentable infinity categories,…

On lax limits in infinity categories

John D. Berman

We introduce partially lax limits of infinity-categories, which interpolate between ordinary limits and lax limits. Most naturally occurring examples of lax limits are only partial…

THH and traces of enriched categories

John D. Berman

We prove that topological Hochschild homology (THH) arises from a presheaf of circles on a certain combinatorial category, which gives a universal construction of THH for any enric…

Interpolation over ZZ and torsion in class groups

John Berman, Daniel Erman

We prove an interpolation result for homogeneous polynomials over the integers, or more generally for PIDs with finite residue fields. Previous proofs of this result use the well-k…

Higher Lawvere theories

John D. Berman

We survey Lawvere theories at the level of infinity categories, as an alternative framework for higher algebra (rather than infinity operads). From a pedagogical perspective, they…
