We introduce a new type of weakly enriched categories over a given symmetric monoidal model category M; these are called Co-Segal categories. Their definition derives from the philosophy of classical (enriched) Segal categories. We study…
In this paper, we address the construction of homotopy bicategories of $(\infty,2)$-categories, which we take as being modeled by 2-fold Segal spaces. Our main result is the concrete construction of a functor $h_2$ from the category of…
The goal is to review the notion of a complete Segal space and how certain categorical notions behave in this context. In particular, we study functoriality in complete Segal spaces via fibrations. Then we use it to define limits and…
As a sequel to [14], in this article we first introduce a so-called duplex Hecke algebras of type B which is a Q(q)-algebra associated with the Weyl group W (B) of type B, and symmetric groups S_l for l = 0, 1, . . . ,m, satisfying some…
We find and propose an explanation for a large variety of modularity-related symmetries in problems of 3-manifold topology and physics of 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories where such structures a priori are not manifest. These modular structures…
In a previous paper, we showed that a discrete version of the $S_\bullet$-construction gives an equivalence of categories between unital 2-Segal sets and augmented stable double categories. Here, we generalize this result to the homotopical…
In this paper we continue to explore the connection between tensor algebras and displacement structure. We focus on recursive orthonormalization and we develop an analogue of the Szego type theory of orthogonal polynomials in the unit…
This document is centered around a main idea: simplicial categories, by which we mean simplicial objects in the category of categories, can be treated as a two-fold categorical structure and their double category theory is homotopically…
We define Weil spaces, Weil manifolds, Weil varieties and Weil Lie groups over an arbitrary commutative base ring K (in particular, over discrete rings such as the integers), and we develop the basic theory of such spaces, leading up the…
It is conjectured that in the origin of space-time there lies a symplectic rather than metric structure. The complex symplectic symmetry Sp(2l,C), l\ge1 instead of the pseudo-orthogonal one SO(1,d-1), d\ge4 is proposed as the space-time…
Algebraic classification of higher dimensional, shear-free, twist-free, expanding (or non-expanding) spacetime is studied with the limit of $D\rightarrow\infty$. Similar to classification of any arbitrary dimension $D>4$, this spacetime is…
A characterization of simplicial objects in categories with finite products obtained by the reduced bar construction is given. The condition that characterizes such simplicial objects is a strictification of Segal's condition guaranteeing…
We develop and collect techniques for determining Hochschild cohomology of skew group algebras S(V)#G and apply our results to graded Hecke algebras. We discuss the explicit computation of certain types of invariants under centralizer…
Using techniques from supergravity and dimensional reduction, we study the full isometry algebra of K\"ahler and quaternionic manifolds with special geometry. These two varieties are related by the so-called c-map, which can be understood…
In [1] we introduced the notion of 'structured space', i.e. a space which locally resembles various algebraic structures. In [2] and [3] we studied some cohomology theories related to these space. In this paper we continue in this…
The formal algebraic structures that govern higher-spin theories within the unfolded approach turn out to be related to an extension of the Kontsevich Formality, namely, the Shoikhet-Tsygan Formality. Effectively, this allows one to…
We construct a collection of higher Chow cycles on certain surfaces which degenerate to an arrangement of planes in general position. When its degree is 4, this construction gives a new explicit proof of the Hodge-D-Conjecture for a certain…
Starting from the canonical phase space for discretised (4d) BF-theory, we implement a canonical version of the simplicity constraints and construct phase spaces for simplicial geometries. Our construction allows us to study the connection…
A type of directed multigraph called a W-digraph is introduced to model the structure of certain representations of Hecke algebras, including those constructed by Lusztig and Vogan from involutions in a Weyl group. Building on results of…
Based on work presented in [4], we define $S^2$-Upper Triangular Matrices and $S^2$-Lower Triangular Matrices, two special types of $d\times d(2d-1)$ matrices generalizing Upper and Lower Triangular Matrices, respectively. Then, we show…
