The question "What is category theory" is approached by focusing on universal mapping properties and adjoint functors. Category theory organizes mathematics using morphisms that transmit structure and determination. Structures of…

Let $\V$ be a symmetric monoidal model category and let $X$ be an object in $\V$. From this we can construct a new symmetric monoidal model category $Sp^{\Sigma}(\V,X)$ of symmetric spectra objects in $\V$ with respect to $X$, together with…

We introduce a notion of complexity of diagrams (and in particular of objects and morphisms) in an arbitrary category, as well as a notion of complexity of functors between categories equipped with complexity functions. We discuss several…

We generalize the notion of ends and coends in category theory to the realm of module categories over finite tensor categories. We call this new concept "module (co)end". This tool allows us to give different proofs to several known results…

For a number field, we have a Tannaka category of mixed Tate motives at our disposal. We construct p-adic points of the associated Tannaka group by using p-adic Hodge theory. Extensions of two Tate objects yield functions on the Tannaka…

This paper is part of a sequence interpreting quantities of conformal field theories K-theoretically. Here we give geometric constructions of the associated module categories (modular invariants, nimreps, etc). In particular, we give a…

We define a differential Tannakian category and show that under a natural assumption it has a fibre functor. If in addition this category is neutral, that is, the target category for the fibre functor are finite dimensional vector spaces…

This dissertation comprises three collections of results, all united by a common theme. The theme is the study of categories via algebraic techniques, considering categories themselves as algebraic objects. This algebraic approach to…

Scattering diagrams arose in the context of mirror symmetry, but a special class of scattering diagrams (the cluster scattering diagrams) were recently developed to prove key structural results on cluster algebras. We use the connection to…

Calculi of string diagrams are increasingly used to present the syntax and algebraic structure of various families of circuits, including signal flow graphs, electrical circuits and quantum processes. In many such approaches, the semantic…

Let $X$ be a complete toric variety equipped with the action of a torus $T$ and $G$ a reductive algebraic group, defined over an algebraically closed field $K$. We introduce the notion of a compatible $\Sigma$--filtered algebra associated…

The data for many useful bidirectional constructions in applied category theory (optics, learners, games, quantum combs) can be expressed in terms of diagrams containing "holes" or "incomplete parts", sometimes known as comb diagrams. We…

We develop a purely set-theoretic formalism for binary trees and binary graphs. We define a category of binary automata, and display it as a fibred category over the category of binary graphs. We also relate the notion of binary graphs to…

This paper investigates the structure of generic motives and their implications for the motivic cohomology of fields. Originating in Voevodsky's theory of motives and related to Beilinson's vision of a motivic $t$-structure, generic motives…

Equational reasoning with string diagrams provides an intuitive means of proving equations between morphisms in a symmetric monoidal category. This can be extended to proofs of infinite families of equations using a simple graphical syntax…

In this paper we suggest a definition for the category of mixed motives generated by the motive h^1(E) for E an elliptic curve without complex multiplication. We then compute the cohomology of this category. Modulo a strengthening of the…

We introduce two families of diagrammatic monoidal supercategories. The first family, depending on an associative superalgebra, generalizes the oriented Brauer category. The second, depending on an involutive superalgebra, generalizes the…

We explain how categories, and groupoids, can be seen as models for a Lawvere ${\mathfrak Gr}$-theory, where ${\mathfrak Gr}$ is the category of graphs, and show that for Lawvere ${\mathfrak Gr}$-theories finitely presentable models are…

Let $k$ be a field, $Q$ a finite directed graph, and $kQ$ its path algebra. Make $kQ$ an $\NN$-graded algebra by assigning each arrow a positive degree. Let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal in $kQ$ and write $A=kQ/I$. Let $\QGr A$ denote the…

We construct a perfect version of Morel--Voevodsky's motivic homotopy category over a perfect base scheme in positive characteristic. By checking the axioms of a coefficient system, we establish a six-functor formalism. We show that…
