The beginning graduate student in homotopy theory is confronted with a vast literature on spectra that is scattered across books articles and decades. There is much folklore but very few easy entry points. This comprehensive introduction to stable... more

The language of ∞-categories provides an insightful new way of expressing many results in higher-dimensional mathematics but can be challenging for the uninitiated. To explain what exactly an ∞-category is requires various technical models... more

At the heart of this short introduction to category theory is the idea of a universal property important throughout mathematics. After an introductory chapter giving the basic definitions separate chapters explain three ways of expressing universal... more

This book gives a general outlook on homotopy theory; fundamental concepts such as homotopy groups and spectral sequences are developed from a few axioms and are thus available in a broad variety of contexts. Many examples and applications in... more

Volume II on formal (ZFC) set theory incorporates a self-contained chapter 0 on proof techniques so that it is based on formal logic in the style of Bourbaki. The emphasis on basic techniques provides a solid foundation in set theory and a thorough... more
