In this paper, we classify finite categories with two objects such that one of the endomorphism monoids is a group. We prove that having a group on one side affects the structure of the other endomorphism monoid, and we prove that it is…
A subcategory $\textbf{C}$ of a groupoid $\mathbb{G}$ is a left order in $\mathbb{G}$, if every element of $\mathbb{G}$ can be written as $a^{-1}b$ where $a, b \in \textbf{C}$. A subsemigroupoid $\mathfrak{C}$ of a groupoid $\mathbb{G}$ is…
In our previous work, Hopf cyclic cohomology in braided monoidal categories, we extended the formalism of Hopf cyclic cohomology due to Connes and Moscovici and the more general case of Hopf cyclic cohomology with coefficients to the…
We prove that there exists a geometric bijection between the sets of adjoint and coadjoint orbits of a semidirect product, provided a similar bijection holds for particular subgroups. We also show that under certain conditions the homotopy…
A bounded automorphism of a field or a group with trivial approximate centre is definable. In an expansion of a field by a Pfaffian family F of additive endomorphisms such that algebraic closure in the expansion coincides with relative…
Given a category with a bifunctor and natural isomorphisms for associativity, commutativity and left and right identity we do not assume that extra constraining diagrams hold. We introduce groupoids of coupling trees to describe a version…
This paper proves coherence results for categories with a natural transformation called \emph{intermutation} made of arrows from $(A\wedge B)\vee(C\wedge D)$ to ${(A\vee C)\wedge(B\vee D)}$, for $\wedge$ and $\vee$ being two biendofunctors.…
This paper is the second in a series investigating cartesian closed varieties. In first of these, we showed that every non-degenerate finitary cartesian variety is a variety of sets equipped with an action by a Boolean algebra B and a…
We characterize noncommutative Frobenius algebras A in terms of the existence of a coproduct which is a map of left A^e-modules. We show that the category of right (left) comodules over A, relative to this coproduct, is isomorphic to the…
Working in the framework of $(T, V)$-categories, for a symmetric monoidal closed category $V$ and a (not necessarily cartesian) monad $T$, we present a common account to the study of ordered compact Hausdorff spaces and stably compact…
We define the Hochschild complex and cohomology of a ring object in a monoidal category enriched over abelian groups. We interpret the cohomology groups and prove that the cohomology ring is graded-commutative.
It is proved that equalities between arrows assumed for cartesian categories are maximal in the sense that extending them with any new equality in the language of free cartesian categories collapses a cartesian category into a preorder. An…
We show that given a rigid C*-tensor category, there is an equivalence of categories between normalized irreducible Q-systems, also known as connected unitary Frobenius algebra objects, and compact connected W*-algebra objects. Although…
We functorially characterize groupoids as special dagger Frobenius algebras in the category of sets and relations. This is then generalized to a non-unital setting, by establishing an adjunction between H*-algebras in the category of sets…
A subunit in a monoidal category is a subobject of the monoidal unit for which a canonical morphism is invertible. They correspond to open subsets of a base topological space in categories such as those of sheaves or Hilbert modules. We…
Several elementary properties of the symmetric group $S_n$ extend in a nice way to the full transformation monoid $M_n$ of all maps of the set $X:=\{1,2,3,\dots,n\}$ into itself. The group $S_n$ turns out to be in some sense the torsion…
For a bialgebra $L$ coacting on a $\Bbbk$-algebra $A$, a classical result states that $A$ is a right $L$-comodule algebra if and only if $A$ is an algebra in the monoidal category $\mathcal{M}^{L}$ of right $L$-comodules; the former notion…
The groupoid of finite sets has a "canonical" structure of a symmetric 2-rig with the sum and product respectively given by the coproduct and product of sets. This 2-rig $\widehat{\mathbb{F}\mathbb{S} et}$ is just one of the many…
We study internal structures in regular categories using monoidal methods. Groupoids in a regular Goursat category can equivalently be described as special dagger Frobenius monoids in its monoidal category of relations. Similarly,…
The fundamental bigroupoid of a topological space is one way of capturing its homotopy 2-type. When the space is semilocally 2-connected, one can lift the construction to a bigroupoid internal to the category of topological spaces, as Brown…
