The language of Mathematics has changed drastically since the middle of the twentieth century, in particular after Grothendieck’s ideas spread from algebraic geometry to many other subjects. As an enrichment for the notions of sets and functions, categories and sheaves are new tools which appear almost everywhere nowadays, sometimes simply in the role of a useful language, but often as the natural approach to a deeper understanding of mathematics.
In this book, we present categories, homological algebra and sheaves in a systematic and exhaustive manner starting from scratch and continuing with full proofs to an exposition of the most recent results in the literature, and sometimes beyond. We also present the main features and key results of related topics that would deserve a whole book for themselves (e.g., tensor categories, triangulated categories, stacks).
