Calculations for Plus Constructions

Abstract

In arXiv:2209.06121, they defined a general plus construction for monoidal categories and showed that if the monoidal category is a unique factorization category, then the plus construction yields a Feynman category. In this paper, we will focus on different methods for constructing UFCs and demonstrate how the plus construction reproduces and clarifies many existing constructions through explicit computations.
