Reference request: Who first proved that right adjoints preserve limits?
Daniel M. Kan defined adjoint functors in his paper Adjoint functors (written in 1956).
In Chapter II he defines limits and colimits of arbitrary small diagrams
and proves that the limit and colimit f …

what is a spinor structure?
A spin structure on a real vector space V equipped with a real quadratic form μ
is an invertible bimodule (i.e., a Morita equivalence)
from Cl(V,μ) to Cl(Rdim(V),ν).
Here ν is the direct sum of dim(V) …

Is there a citeable reference for star-shaped open subsets of R^n being diffeomorphic to R^n?
A folk theorem says that star-shaped open subsets of R^n are diffeomorphic to R^n.
Is there a citeable reference for a proof of this result?
For the sake of being definite, let's say that
“citeable” m …

Hahn-Banach without Choice
This might be irrelevant, but I would like to point out that if one
restates Hahn-Banach theorem in the language of locales (replacing topological spaces),
one can get rid of the axiom of choice and t …

Relative category structure on (Set valued) presheaves
The usual constructions of Grothendieck homotopy theory (as presented by Maltsiniotis and Cisinski) can be easily extended to the setting of relative categories.
Recall that given a small category $A$ …
