We introduce the notion of (twisted) quiver representations in abelian categories and study the category of such representations. We construct standard resolutions and coresolutions of quiver representations and study basic homological…
A PROP is a symmetric monoidal category whose objects are the nonnegative integers and whose tensor product on objects is addition. A morphism from $m$ to $n$ in a PROP can be visualized as a string diagram with $m$ input wires and $n$…
If C is a stable model category with a monoidal product then the set of homotopy classes of self-maps of the unit S forms a commutative ring. An idempotent e of this ring will split the homotopy category. We prove that provided the…
In his book on model categories, Hovey asked whether the 2-category $\mathbf{Mod}$ of model categories admits a "model 2-category structure" whose weak equivalences are the Quillen equivalences. We show that $\mathbf{Mod}$ does not have…
We introduce a new diagrammatic $\Bbbk$-linear monoidal supercategory $QWeb^\bullet$, the affine web supercategory of type $Q$, where $\Bbbk$ is a commutative ring of characteristic not two. This category is the affinization of the web…
We prove that the arrow category of a monoidal model category, equipped with the pushout product monoidal structure and the projective model structure, is a monoidal model category. This answers a question posed by Mark Hovey, and has the…
We formulate two new $\mathbb Z[q,q^{-1}]$-linear diagrammatic monoidal categories, the affine $q$-web category and the affine $q$-Schur category, as well as their respective cyclotomic quotient categories. Diagrammatic integral bases for…
We introduce the notion of groupoidal (weak) test category, which is a small category A such that the groupoid-valued presheaves over A models homotopy types in a "canonical and nice" way. The definition does not require a priori that A is…
A simplicial set is said to be non-singular if its non-degenerate simplices are embedded. Let $sSet$ denote the category of simplicial sets. We prove that the full subcategory $nsSet$ whose objects are the non-singular simplicial sets…
When designing plans in engineering, it is often necessary to consider attributes associated to objects, e.g. the location of a robot. Our aim in this paper is to incorporate attributes into existing categorical formalisms for planning,…
A general result relating skew monoidal structures and monads is proved. This is applied to quantum categories and bialgebroids. Ordinary categories are monads in the bicategory whose morphisms are spans between sets. Quantum categories…
We develop a categorical approach to quivers and their modules. Naturally this leads to a notion of an action of a monoidal category on quivers. Using this, we construct for a large class of quivers rigid monoidal structures on their…
Let k be a commutative ring with unit. We endow the categories of filtered complexes and of bicomplexes of k-modules, with cofibrantly generated model structures, where the class of weak equivalences is given by those morphisms inducing a…
The homotopy theory of representations of nets of algebras over a (small) category with values in a closed symmetric monoidal model category is developed. We illustrate how each morphism of nets of algebras determines a change-of-net…
In this article we show how to build main aspects of our paper on globular weak $(\infty,n)$-categories, but now for the cubical geometry. Thus we define a monad on the category $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{S}ets$ of cubical sets which algebras are…
In this chapter we survey some particular topics in category theory in a somewhat unconventional manner. Our main focus will be on monoidal categories, mostly symmetric ones, for which we propose a physical interpretation. These are…
It is common to encounter symmetric monoidal categories $\mathcal{C}$ for which every object is equipped with an algebraic structure, in a way that is compatible with the monoidal product and unit in $\mathcal{C}$. We define this formally…
In this article, we construct a cofibrantly generated Quillen model structure on the category of small topological categories $\mathbf{Cat}_{\mathbf{Top}}$. It is Quillen equivalent to the Joyal model structure of $(\infty,1)$-categories…
There exist cubical transition systems containing cubes having an arbitrarily large number of faces. A regular transition system is a cubical transition system such that each cube has the good number of faces. The categorical and…
We give the definitions of model bicategory and $q$-homotopy, which are natural generalizations of the notions of model category and homotopy to the context of bicategories. For any model bicategory $\mathcal{C}$, denote by…
