We prove that a lax $\mathbb{E}_{n+1}$-monoidal functor from $\mathcal V$ to $\mathcal W$ induces a lax $\mathbb{E}_n$-monoidal functor from $\mathcal V$-enriched $\infty$-categories to $\mathcal W$-enriched $\infty$-categories in the sense…

We define a notion of Koszul dual of a monoid object in a monoidal biclosed model category. Our construction generalizes the classic Yoneda algebra $Ext_A(k,k)$. We apply this general construction to define the Koszul dual of a category…

We discuss the role of higher Segal spaces at the interface of cyclic polytopes, orientals, and higher correspondences. Along the way we review examples from algebraic K-theory, show how cyclic polytopes provide a geometric model for the…

State of the art language models return a natural language text continuation from any piece of input text. This ability to generate coherent text extensions implies significant sophistication, including a knowledge of grammar and semantics.…

We study 2-monads and their algebras using a Cat-enriched version of Quillen model categories, emphasizing the parallels between the homotopical and 2-categorical points of view. Every 2-category with finite limits and colimits has a…

Based on a Whitehead-type characterization of the sectional category we develop the notion of weak sectional category. This is a new lower bound of the sectional category, which is inspired by the notion of weak category in the sense of…

In this paper we introduce a strict monoidal subcategory of the category of matrices, suitable to address a higher representation theoretic analogue of radicals (non-semisimplicity) in ordinary representation theory. We show the extent to…

We generalise to a group homomorphism $\tau$ the $\chi$-graded categories of S\"{o}zer and Virelizier. These are categories in which both morphisms and objects have compatible degrees. We give a 'half-enriched' Yoneda lemma, a structure…

For any 1-reduced simplicial set $K$ we define a canonical, coassociative coproduct on $\Om C(K)$, the cobar construction applied to the normalized, integral chains on $K$, such that any canonical quasi-isomorphism of chain algebras from…

An equivalent description of a symmetric monoidal category is introduced in which, instead of separate associator and commutator isomorphisms satisfying the usual coherence axioms, we simply have associo-commutator isomorphisms satisfying…

The monoidal properties of the Dold-Kan correspondence have been studied in homotopy theory, notably by Schwede and Shipley. Changing the enrichment of an enriched, tensored, and cotensored category along the Dold-Kan correspondence does…

We study the monoidal closed category of symmetric multicategories, especially in relation with its cartesian structure and with sequential multicategories (whose arrows are sequences of concurrent arrows in a given category). Then we…

The aim of this article is to study certain categorical-algebraic frameworks for basic homological algebra, introduced in arXiv:2404.15896, with the aim of better understanding the differences between them. We focus on homological…

In this work, we establish certain enrichments of dual algebraic structures in the setting of monoidal double categories. In more detail, we obtain a tensored and cotensored enrichment of monads in comonads, as well as a tensored and…

Classical definitions of weak higher-dimensional categories are given inductively; for example, a bicategory has a set of objects and hom categories, and a tricategory has a set of objects and hom bicategories. However, more recent…

We develop category theory within Univalent Foundations, which is a foundational system for mathematics based on a homotopical interpretation of dependent type theory. In this system, we propose a definition of "category" for which equality…

Diagrammatic sets are presheaves on a rich category of shapes, whose definition is motivated by combinatorial topology and higher-dimensional diagram rewriting. These shapes include representatives of oriented simplices, cubes, and positive…

There are a dozen definitions of weak higher categories, all of which loosen the notion of composition of arrows. A new approach is presented here, where instead the notion of identity arrow is weakened -- these are tentatively called fair…

This paper gives an introduction to the homotopy theory of quasi-categories. Weak equivalences between quasi-categories are characterized as maps which induce equivalences on a naturally defined system of groupoids. These groupoids…

In this paper we propose an approach to homotopical algebra where the basic ingredient is a category with two classes of distinguished morphisms: strong and weak equivalences. These data determine the cofibrant objects by an extension…
