Smash Products for Non-cartesian Internal Prestacks

Category Theory 2019-07-24 v1 Representation Theory

Abstract

The smash product construction (or the Grothendieck construction) takes a functor (or prestack) F ⁣:BopCatF \colon B^{op} \to \mathbf{Cat} and returns a fibration p ⁣:ABp \colon A \to B. In this paper, we develop an analogue of the smash product for prestacks internal to a non-cartesian monoidal category. Our construction simultaneously generalizes the Grothendieck construction for prestacks and smash products for BB-module algebras over a bialgebra BB. Further, taking fibers or coinvariants allows one to recover the original prestack.
