The notion of Kan extendable subcategories was initially introduced to define the category of compactly generated fibrewise topological spaces over a T1 base space and to establish its cartesian closure. In this paper, we show that the same framework can likewise be applied to define the category of compactly generated strongly Hausdorff locales and to prove that it, too, is cartesian closed
We use pointwise Kan extensions to generate new subcategories out of old ones. We investigate the properties of these newly produced categories and give sufficient conditions for their cartesian closedness to hold. Our methods are of general use. Here we apply them particularly to the study of the properties of certain categories of fibrewise topological spaces. In particular, we prove that the categories of fibrewise compactly generated spaces, fibrewise sequential spaces and fibrewise Alexandroff spaces are cartesian closed provided that the base space satisfies the right separation axiom.
We verify that for a finite simplicial complex $X$ and for piecewise linear loops on $X$, the "thin" loop space is a topological group of the same homotopy type as the space of continuous loops. This turns out not to be the case for the higher loops.
We here define a cell structure for real, complex and quaternionic flag manifolds in a unified way. Our method is geometric in nature and is inspired from a method due to Milnor and Stasheff, which they used to define a cell structure for real Grassmann manifolds.
We study the category of Reedy diagrams in a $\mm$-model category. Explicitly, we show that if K is a small category, V is a closed symmetric monoidal category and C is a closed V-module, then the diagram category V^K is a closed symmetric monoidal category and the diagram category C^K is a closed V^K-module. We then prove that if further K is a Reedy category, V is a monoidal model category and C is a V-model category, then with the Reedy model category structures, V^K is a monoidal model category and C^K$ is a $\mm^K-model category provided that either the unit 1 of V is cofibrant or V is cofibrantly generated.
Given a small category $I$ and a closed symmetric monoidal category $\mm$, we show that the diagram category $\mm^I$ with the objectwise product is a closed symmetric monoidal category. We then prove that if $I$ is a Reedy category and $\mm$ has a model structure compatible with its product, then so is the Reedy model structure on $\mm^I$ provided that $\mm$ is cofibrantly generated.
