Categories are coreflectively embedded in multicategories via the "discrete cocone" construction, the right adjoint being given by the monoid construction. Furthermore, the adjunction lifts to the "cartesian level": preadditive categories…

We extend the basic concepts of Street's formal theory of monads from the setting of 2-categories to that of double categories. In particular, we introduce the double category Mnd(C) of monads in a double category C and define what it means…

In this article the notion of virtual double category (also known as fc-multicategory) is extended as follows. While cells in a virtual double category classically have a horizontal multi-source and single horizontal target, the notion of…

The small object argument is a method for transfinitely constructing weak factorization systems originally motivated by homotopy theory. We establish a variant of the small object argument that is enriched over a cofibrantly generated weak…

We prove that, under certain conditions, the model structure on a monoidal model category $\mathcal{V}$ can be transferred to a model structure on the category of $\mathcal{V}$-enriched coloured (symmetric) operads. As a particular case we…

We present a method of constructing symmetric monoidal bicategories from symmetric monoidal double categories that satisfy a lifting condition. Such symmetric monoidal double categories frequently occur in nature, so the method is widely…

We give a general framework of equivariant model category theory. Our groups G, called Hopf groups, are suitably defined group objects in any well-behaved symmetric monoidal category V. For any V, a discrete group G gives a Hopf group,…

I show that the theories of enrichment in a monoidal infinity-category defined by Hinich and by Gepner-Haugseng agree, and that the identification is unique. Among other things, this makes the Yoneda lemma available in the former model.

We study rewriting for equational theories in the context of symmetric monoidal categories where there is a separable Frobenius monoid on each object. These categories, also called hypergraph categories, are increasingly relevant: Frobenius…

In this document, we propose a description, via a Haskell implementation, of a generalization of the notion of regular expression allowing us to group the definitions and the methods of (tree or word) automata constructions over one generic…

It is well known that the existence of a braiding in a monoidal category V allows many structures to be built upon that foundation. These include a monoidal 2-category V-Cat of enriched categories and functors over V, a monoidal bicategory…

A double category is constructed from a `fattened' version of a given category, motivated in part by a context of parallel transport. We also study monoidal structures on the underlying category and on the fattened category.

Given an additive equational category with a closed symmetric monoidal structure and a potential dualizing object, we find sufficient conditions that the category of topological objects over that category has a good notion of full…

Many structures of interest in two-dimensional category theory have aspects that are inherently strict. This strictness is not a limitation, but rather plays a fundamental role in the theory of such structures. For instance, a monoidal…

This is the first of a series of papers on enriched infinity categories, seeking to reduce enriched higher category theory to the higher algebra of presentable infinity categories, which is better understood and can be approached via…

Categorical probability has recently seen significant advances through the formalism of Markov categories, within which several classical theorems have been proven in entirely abstract categorical terms. Closely related to Markov categories…

Presentations of categories are a well-known algebraic tool to provide descriptions of categories by means of generators, for objects and morphisms, and relations on morphisms. We generalize here this notion, in order to consider situations…

Q-system completion can be thought of as a notion of higher idempotent completion of C*-2-categories. We introduce a notion of quantum bi-elements, and study Q-system completion in the context of compact quantum groups. We relate our notion…
