This is the first volume of the new "Coimbra Mathematical Texts???? book series. The book has seven independent chapters providing an introduction to various subjects in algebra, topology and category theory. Each chapter covers the content of one of the mini-courses that were given at the summer schools that took place in Louvain-la-Neuve in September 2018 and 2019, in the framework of a collaboration project of the UCLouvain with the universities of Coimbra and Padova.
