Homotopy theory is an important sub-field of algebraic topology. It is mainly concerned with the properties and structures of spaces which are invariant under homotopy. Chief among these are the homotopy groups of spaces, specifically those of spheres. Homotopy theory includes a broad set of ideas and techniques, such as cohomology theories, spectra and stable homotopy theory, model categories, spectral sequences, and classifying spaces.

Indexing categories of derivators

It is not clear to me the role of the domain and target in the definition of prederivators. For instance, the classical references put the domain as $\mathit{Dia}$, others as $\mathit{Cat}$ itself. So …

Axioms of derivators

I would like to enter the world of derivators. We can find a little history here and there about the limitations of triangulated categories and the motivation to enhance them, but also to compute homo …
