Morphisms of fibered categories which are compatible with the chosen cleavages
Let $\pi \colon F \rightarrow C$ and $\pi' \colon F' \rightarrow C$ be two fibered categories over the category $C$. A morphism from $\pi \colon F \rightarrow C$ to $\pi' \colon F' \rightarrow C$ is a ...

What is the name for the construction of this poset related to coherence of degeneracies of the simplex category?
I present you a family of posets here. I don't say the posets themselves have a conventional name. However I'm sure the general construction of this kind has received some terminology, related to ...

Freely adding comprehensions
If $P:T^{\rm op}\to \rm Cat$ is a hyperdoctrine with at least products in the fiber categories, then there is a way of "freely" adding Lawvere-style comprehension to it. The base category $...

When is a Grothendieck construction a presheaf category?
Let $C$ be a small category, $\mathcal{P}C$ its presheaf category, and $F:\mathcal{P}C^{\rm op} \to \rm Cat$ a pseudofunctor. Are there general conditions we can impose ensuring that the Grothendieck ...

Checking that (hyper) sheafification is fibrant in local projective model structure on simplicial presheaves
Context and Notation
Let $X$ be a manifold and $\mathcal{C} = Op(X)$ be the category of open subsets of $X$ with inclusions. I then consider the projective model structure on the (simplicial model) ...

Explaining the "free left fibration" functor for infinity categories
This is a cross-post from here
I am reading A. Mazel-Gee's paper "All about the Grothendieck construction". In that paper he explains that the left adjoint ${\mathrm{Cat}_{\infty}}_{/\mathcal{C}}\to \...

Does the Grothendieck construction produce a 2-category or a category?
Let $F : \mathcal{C} \to \mathbf{Cat}$ be a lax 2-functor. Then we can form a category $\int F $ which is the Grothendieck construction on F.
There's a number of resources detailing this construction, ...

Categorical Significance of Fibrations
It is well known that the category $\text{Set}$ classifies covering spaces among $1$-categories. That is, for each topological space $X$, there is an equivalence of categories $[ \Pi (X) , \text{Set}]...

Does the Grothendieck construction satisfy Fubini's thorem
Suppose we are given a functor
$F:(A\times B)^{\operatorname{op}}\to \operatorname{Set}$.
It's well-known that the Grothendieck construction in this case evaluates as
$\int_{A\times B}F = (A\...

The category of elements corresponding to a coend as a higher colimit
Let $D: \mathcal{C} \to \mathbf{Set}$ be a diagram of sets, then we can obtain the colimit of $D$ as the set of connected components of the category of elements of $F$, which we denote by $\mathrm{el}(...

Grothendieck construction and coends
In category theory, both the Grothendieck construction and coends are represented by a sort of "integral sign", respectively:
$$
\int F
$$
for a functor $F:C\to\mathbf{Cat}$,
and:
$$
\int^x G(x,x)
$$
