following the categorical approach to universal algebra through algebraic theories, proposed by f.~w.~lawvere in his phd thesis, this paper aims at introducing a similar setting for general topology. the cornerstone of the new framework is the notion of emph{categorically-algebraic} (emph{catalg}) emph{topological theory}, whose models induce a category of topological structures. we introduce t...

W.C. Rounds and G.-Q. Zhang have recently proposed to study a form of resolution on algebraic domains [1]. This framework allows reasoning with knowledge which is hierarchically structured and forms a (suitable) domain, more precisely, a coherent algebraic cpo as studied in domain theory. In this paper, we give conditions under which a resolution theorem — in a form underlying resolution-based ...

Using the dual of Bousfield-Friedlander localization we colocalize resolution model structures on cosimplicial objects over a left proper model category to get truncated resolution model structures. These are useful to study realization and moduli problems in algebraic topology.

Acknowledgements The greatest thanks must go to my supervisor Daniel Chan. Daniel was on leave for 6 months this year, yet he nonetheless committed a lot of time to helping me. His enthusiasm and intelligence is very inspiring. Thanks also to my dear parents, who have supported me all the way through university. Thanks to everyone in the honours room! I appreciated sharing Wirkunggeschicte with...

A Calabi-Yau threefold is a complex projective threefold X (possibly with some suitable class of singularities, say terminal or canonical) with ω X ∼ = O X and h 1 (O X) = h 2 (O X) = 0. One of the fundamental gaps in the classification of algebraic threefolds is the lack of understanding of Calabi-Yau threefolds. Here I will try to set forth a program to bring the morass of thousands of exampl...

We prove the equivalence of two fundamental properties of algebraic stacks: being a quotient stack in a strong sense, and the resolution property, which says that every coherent sheaf is a quotient of some vector bundle. Moreover, we prove these properties in the important special case of orbifolds whose associated algebraic space is a scheme. (Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 14A20,...

In this paper, we prove some properties of algebraic cone metric spaces and introduce the notion of algebraic distance in an algebraic cone metric space. As an application, we obtain some famous fixed point results in the framework of this algebraic distance.

The concept of weak algebraic hyperstructures or Hv-structures constitutes a generalization of the well-known algebraic hyperstructures (semihypergroup, hypergroup and so on). The overall aim of this paper is to present an introduction to some of the results, methods and ideas about chemical examples of weak algebraic hyperstructures. In this paper after an introduction of basic definitions and...
