Title

Polynomial rings over triangulated categories-an introduction to derivators

Abstract

I will discuss an analogue of taking categories of (possibly graded) modules over a polynomial ring as a purely categorical construction. This requires the formalism of derivators, but in return this allows us to expand the construction to other areas of mathematics. These constructions satisfy some good properties also seen for rings.
