We study the maximal rigid subcategories in $2-$CY triangulated categories and their endomorphism algebras. Cluster tilting subcategories are obviously maximal rigid; we prove that the converse is true if the $2-$CY triangulated categories…

We prove that some subquotient categories of exact categories are abelian. This generalizes a result by Koenig-Zhu in the case of (algebraic) triangulated categories. As a particular case, if an exact category B with enough projectives and…

We show that the bigroupoid of separable symmetric Frobenius algebras over an algebraically closed field and the bigroupoid of finitely semi-simple Calabi-Yau categories are equivalent. To this end, we construct a trace on the category of…

Are all subcategories of locally finitely presentable categories that are closed under limits and $\lambda$-filtered colimits also locally presentable? For full subcategories the answer is affirmative. Makkai and Pitts proved that in the…

We define the notion of duality categories as generalization of duality groups. Two examples are treated. The first is the Serre duality in the categories of strict polynomial functors. The second concerns finite complexes. We show in…

Everyone knows that if you have a bivariant homology theory satisfying a base change formula, you get an representation of a category of correspondences. For theories in which the covariant and contravariant transfer maps are in mutual…

We give a 3-categorical, purely formal argument explaining why on the category of Kleisli algebras for a lax monoidal monad, and dually on the category of Eilenberg-Moore algebras for an oplax monoidal monad, we always have a natural…

In this paper using split extensions of group-groupoids we obtain the notion of crossed modules over group-grouoids which are also called 2-groups and we prove a categorical equivalence of these types of crossed modules and double…

We reprove the classical Tannaka-Krein reconstruction theorem by finding a monoidal equivalence of categories between a 1-truncated sub-2-category of the slice 2-category ${\sf Mod}({\sf Vec})/{\sf Vec}$ and the category of algebras. We…

We outline a definition of accessible and presentable objects in a 2-category $\mathcal K$ endowed with a "KZ context", that is to say a pair of lax-idempotent monads interacting in a prescribed way; this perspective suggests a unified…

We determine the endomorphism categories of cell 2-representations of fiat 2-categories associated with strongly regular two-sided cells under some natural assumptions. Along the way, we completely describe J-simple fiat 2-categories which…

We prove an equivalence between the real $K$-theory genuine $C_2$-spectra of Calm\`es et al. for Poincar\'e $\infty$-categories and the one of the authors of this work for Waldhausen $\infty$-categories with genuine duality.

We prove a Dold-Kan type correspondence between the category of dendroidal abelian groups and a suitably constructed category of dendroidal complexes. Our result naturally extends the classical Dold-Kan correspondence between the category…

We study two subcategories of the category of artinian modules, a wide subcategory and a Serre subcategory. We prove that all wide subcategories of artinian modules are Serre subcategories. We also provide the bijection between the set of…

Products in double categories, as found in cartesian double categories, are an elegant concept with numerous applications, yet also have a few puzzling aspects. In this paper, we revisit double-categorical products from an unbiased…

We characterize double adjunctions in terms of presheaves and universal squares, and then apply these characterizations to free monads and Eilenberg--Moore objects in double categories. We improve upon our earlier result in "Monads in…

We construct a finitary additive 2-category whose Grothendieck ring is isomorphic to the semigroup algebra of the monoid of order-decreasing and order-preserving transformations of a finite chain.

A multicategory is what remains of a monoidal category when monoidal product is not available. A weak multicategory means that hom-sets are in fact categories, and in place of usual equations, there are natural isomorphisms, which have to…

This text develops a homotopy theory of 2-categories analogous to Grothendieck's homotopy theory of categories developed in "Pursuing Stacks". We define the notion of "basic localizer of 2-Cat", 2-categorical generalization of…

We have generalised the notion of categorical theory in model theory to the context of coherent theories. We prove a duality result between the full sub-2-category of pretopoi which are categorical, and the 2-category of profinite monoids.…
