We investigate categories in which products distribute over coproducts, a structure we call doubly-infinitary distributive categories. Through a range of examples, we explore how this notion relates to established concepts such as…
We consider sets with infinite addition, called $\Sigma$-monoids, and contribute to their literature in three ways. First, our definition subsumes those from previous works and allows us to relate them in terms of adjuctions between their…
This article tackles categorical coherence within a two-dimensional generalization of Lawvere's functorial semantics. 2-theories, a syntactical way of describing categories with structure, are presented. From the perspective here afforded,…
We show how monoidal adjunctions can be used to prove the existence of monoidal abelian envelopes of pseudo-tensor categories, in particular, those admitting a combinatorial description with certain properties. We derive concrete general…
We study and relate categories of modules, comodules and contramodules over a representation of a small category taking values in (co)algebras, in a manner similar to modules over a ringed space. As a result, we obtain a categorical…
We continue the study of enriched infinity categories, using a definition equivalent to that of Gepner and Haugseng. In our approach enriched infinity categories are associative monoids in an especially designed monoidal category of…
We construct a symmetric monoidal closed category of polynomial endofunctors (as objects) and simulation cells (as morphisms). This structure is defined using universal properties without reference to representing polynomial diagrams and is…
It is well-known that combinatorial circuits are modeled mathematically by string diagrams in a monoidal category. Given a gate set $\Sigma$, the circuits over $\Sigma$ can be thought of as string diagrams in the free monoidal category…
For a 2-category $\mathcal{K}$, we consider Street's 2-category Mnd($\mathcal{K}$) of monads in $\mathcal{K}$, along with Lack and Street's 2-category EM($\mathcal{K}$) and the identity-on-objects-and-1-cells 2-functor Mnd($\mathcal{K}$)…
Premonoidal and Freyd categories are both generalized by non-cartesian Freyd categories: effectful categories. We construct string diagrams for effectful categories in terms of the string diagrams for a monoidal category with a freely added…
In this document, we collect a list of categorical structures on the category $\mathbf{Poly}$ of polynomial functors. There is no implied claim that this list is in any way complete. It includes: infinitely many monoidal structures, all but…
We propose a new framework for integrating quantifiers with other logical connectives in a higher-categorical setting. Our method systematically incorporates key coherence conditions-including those akin to the Beck-Chevalley property-and…
Let $U$ be a strong monoidal functor between monoidal categories. If it has both a left adjoint $L$ and a right adjoint $R$, we show that the pair $(R,L)$ is a linearly distributive functor and $(U,U)\dashv (R,L)$ is a linearly distributive…
A monad is constructed in the Goguen category of fuzzy sets valued in a unital quantale, which is an analog of the double contravariant powerset monad in the category of sets. With help of this monad it is proved that the Goguen category of…
Morphisms in the linear category A of Jacobi diagrams in handlebodies give rise to interesting contravariant functors on the category gr of finitely-generated free groups, encoding part of the composition structure of the category A. These…
Differential modules over a commutative differential ring R which are finitely generated projective as ring modules, with differential homomorphisms, form an additive category, so their isomorphism classes form a monoid. We study the…
We revisit once again the connection between three notions of computation: monads, arrows and idioms (also called applicative functors). We employ monoidal categories of finitary functors and profunctors on finite sets as models of these…
Let $\mathsf{Q}$ be a commutative and unital quantale. By a $\mathsf{Q}$-map we mean a left adjoint in the quantaloid of sets and $\mathsf{Q}$-relations, and by a partial $\mathsf{Q}$-map we refer to a Kleisli morphism with respect to the…
Containers represent a wide class of type constructions relevant for functional programming and (co)inductive reasoning. Indexed containers generalize this notion to better fit the scope of dependently typed programming. When interpreting…
We investigate an enriched-categorical approach to a field of discrete mathematics. The main result is a duality theorem between a class of enriched categories (called $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}$- or $\overline{\mathbb{R}}$-categories) and that…
