Two adjoint functors can be seen as generalisations of the two functions within a Galois connection. If instead the adjoints are not generalised from functions, but from relations, then analogously the object of study becomes a more general…

We consider an orbit category of the bounded derived category of a path algebra of type A_n which can be viewed as a -(m+1)-cluster category, for m >= 1. In particular, we give a characterisation of those maximal m-rigid objects whose…

We provide three functorial extensions of the equivalence between localic etale groupoids and their quantales. The main result is a biequivalence between the bicategory of localic etale groupoids, with bi-actions as 1-cells, and a…

Graduated locally finitely presentable categories are introduced, examples include categories of sets, vector spaces, posets, presheaves and Boolean algebras. A finitary functor between graduated locally finitely presentable categories is…

We show that either of the two reasonable choices for the category of compact quantum groups is nice enough to allow for a plethora of universal constructions, all obtained "by abstract nonsense" via the adjoint functor theorem. This…

Among (conformal) quantum field theories, the rational conformal field theories are singled out by the fact that their correlators can be constructed from a modular tensor category C with a distinguished object, a symmetric special…

Branes and defects in topological Landau-Ginzburg models are described by matrix factorisations. We revisit the problem of deforming them and discuss various deformation methods as well as their relations. We have implemented these…

Perturbations of B-type defects in Landau-Ginzburg models are considered. In particular, the effect of perturbations of defects on their fusion is analyzed in the framework of matrix factorizations. As an application, it is discussed how…

Given a pair of number fields with isomorphic rings of adeles, we construct bijections between objects associated to the pair. For instance we construct an isomorphism of Brauer groups that commutes with restriction. We additionally…

It is known that the so-called monadic decomposition, applied to the adjunction connecting the category of bialgebras to the category of vector spaces via the tensor and the primitive functors, returns the usual adjunction between…

In this paper we develop a graded tilting theory for gauged Landau-Ginzburg models of regular sections in vector bundles over projective varieties. Our main theoretical result describes - under certain conditions - the bounded derived…

We develop a theory of adjunctions in semigroup categories, i.e. monoidal categories without a unit object. We show that a rigid semigroup category is promonoidal, and thus one can naturally adjoin a unit object to it. This extends the…

In this work, we investigate an effective method for showing that functors between categories are left adjoints. The method applies to a large class of categories, namely locally finitely presentable categories, which are ubiquitous in…

An alternative Lagrangian definition of an integrable defect is provided and analyzed. The new approach is sufficiently broad to allow a description of defects within the Tzitzeica model, which was not possible in previous approaches, and…

Given a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix $A$, for any index $k$, one can define an automorphism associated with $A,$ of the field $\mathbf{Q}(u_1, >..., u_n)$ of rational functions of $n$ independent indeterminates $u_1,..., u_n.$ It…
