On toposes, algebraic theories, semi-abelian categories and compact Hausdorff spaces (with Francis Borceux)
Preprint  24-12, DMUC.

Abstract: In this paper we study the categories (C*)^op and
((C*)^op)^T of T-models in (C*)^op for an arbitrary algebraic theory T, when C is a topos or the category CHaus of compact Hausdorff spaces. It is well-known that, when C is a topos, (C*)^op is semi-abelian. We show that (CHaus*)^op is semi-abelian, as well as ((CHaus*)^op)^T, and that, when C is a topos having locales of subobjects, ((C*)^op)^T is also semi-abelian. In addition, we prove the representability of actions in (CHaus*)^op.



Effective descent morphisms of filtered preorders (with George Janelidze)
Preprint  23-37, DMUC. arXiv 2312.14315

Abstract: We characterize effective descent morphisms of what we call filtered preorders, and apply these results to slightly improve a known result, due to the first author and F. Lucatelli Nunes, on the effective descent morphisms in lax comma categories of preorders. A filtered preorder, over a fixed preorder X, is defined as a preorder A equipped with a profunctor X-> A and, equivalently, as a set A equipped with a family (A_x)_{x\in X} of upclosed subsets of A with x' \leq x => A_x\subseteq A_x'.


A note on Mal'tsev objects (with Diana Rodelo)
Preprint  23-36, DMUC. arXiv 2311.17628

Abstract: The aim of this work is to compare the distinct notions of Mal'tsev object in the sense of Weighill and in the sense of Montoli-Rodelo-Van der Linden.
