We give an alternative treatment of the foundations of parametrized spectra, with an eye toward applications in fixed-point theory. We cover most of the central results from the book of May and Sigurdsson, sometimes with weaker hypotheses, and give a new construction of the bicategory $mathcal Ex$ of parametrized spectra. We also give a careful account of coherence results at the level of homotopy categories. The potential audience for this work may extend outside the boundaries of modern homotopy theory, so our treatment is structured to use as little technology as possible. In particular, many of the results are stated without using model categories. We also illustrate some applications to fixed-point theory.

We introduce a general theory of parametrized objects in the setting of infinity categories. Although spaces and spectra parametrized over spaces are the most familiar examples, we establish our theory in the generality of objects of a presentable infinity category parametrized over objects of an infinity topos. We obtain a coherent functor formalism describing the relationship of the various adjoint functors associated to base-change and symmetric monoidal structures. Our main applications are to the study of generalized Thom spectra. We obtain fiberwise constructions of twisted Umkehr maps for twisted generalized cohomology theories using a geometric fiberwise construction of Atiyah duality. In order to characterize the algebraic structures on generalized Thom spectra and twisted (co)homology, we characterize the generalized Thom spectrum as a categorification of the well-known adjunction between units and group rings.
We give a new formula for $p$-typical real topological cyclic homology that refines the fiber sequence formula discovered by Nikolaus and Scholze for $p$-typical topological cyclic homology to one involving genuine $C_2$-spectra. To accomplish this, we give a new definition of the $infty$-category of real $p$-cyclotomic spectra that replaces the usage of genuinely equivariant dihedral spectra with the parametrized Tate construction $(-)^{t_{C_2} mu_p}$ associated to the dihedral group $D_{2p} = mu_p rtimes C_2$. We then define a $p$-typical and $infty$-categorical version of H{o}genhavens $O(2)$-orthogonal cyclotomic spectra, construct a forgetful functor relating the two theories, and show that this functor restricts to an equivalence between full subcategories of appropriately bounded below objects.
The main result of this note is a parametrized version of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem. We show that for a continuous family of Borsuk-Ulam situations, parameterized by points of a compact manifold W, its solution set also depends continuously on the parameter space W. Continuity here means that the solution set supports a homology class which maps onto the fundamental class of W. When W is a subset of Euclidean space, we also show how to construct such a continuous family starting from a family depending in the same way continuously on the points of the boundary of W. This solves a problem related to a conjecture which is relevant for the construction of equilibrium strategies in repeated two-player games with incomplete information. A new method (of independent interest) used in this context is a canonical symmetric squaring construction in Cech homology with coefficients in Z/2Z.
This paper develops the idea of homology for 1-parameter families of topological spaces. We express parametrized homology as a collection of real intervals with each corresponding to a homological feature supported over that interval or, equivalently, as a persistence diagram. By defining persistence in terms of finite rectangle measures, we classify barcode intervals into four classes. Each of these conveys how the homological features perish at both ends of the interval over which they are defined.
We apply an announced result of Blumberg-Cohen-Schlichtkrull to reprove (under restricted hypotheses) a theorem of Mahowald: the connective real and complex K-theory spectra are not Thom spectra.
