Let $G$ be a finite group. In this paper, we first introduce a new notion, so-called the Mackey double category of $G$. Then we prove that the category of Mackey double categories and the category of Mackey functors of $G$ are equivalent.

We provide a framework for abstract reconstruction problems using the $K$-theory of categories with covering families, which we then apply to reformulate the edge reconstruction conjecture in graph theory. Along the way, we state some…

We introduce Hopf categories enriched over braided monoidal categories. The notion is linked to several recently developed notions in Hopf algebra theory, such as Hopf group (co)algebras, weak Hopf algebras and duoidal categories. We…

We show that the positive zoom complexes, with fairly natural morphisms, form a dual category to the category of positive opetopes with contraction epimorphisms. We also show how this duality can be extended to opetopic cardinals.

We study extension theorems for Lipschitz-type operators acting on metric spaces and with values on spaces of integrable functions. Pointwise domination is not a natural feature of such spaces, and so almost everywhere inequalities and…

In this paper we establish Koszul duality type results in the setting of chain complexes in exact categories. In particular we prove generalisations of Vallette's cooperadic Koszul duality theorem, and operadic Koszul duality along the…

Using methods of KK-theory, we generalize Poincare duality to the framework of twisted K-theory.

We give a geometric model for a tube category in terms of homotopy classes of oriented arcs in an annulus with marked points on its boundary. In particular, we interpret the dimensions of extension groups of degree 1 between indecomposable…

This is a condensed overview of the formal theory of monads in a 2-category. We also define two double categories of monads in a 2-category, extending Lack and Street's 2-categories of monads.

In this paper we use topological techniques to construct generalized trace and modified dimension functions on ideals in certain ribbon categories. Examples of such ribbon categories naturally arise in representation theory where the usual…

In this paper we extend the concept of dinaturality to the setting of double categories. We introduce the dinatural versions of double-categorical transformations and modifications, and show that ordinary natural transformations and…

We initiate the study of derived functors in the setting of extriangulated categories. By using coends, we adapt Yoneda's theory of higher extensions to this framework. We show that, when there are enough projectives or enough injectives,…

A classification is provided of functors, in particular polynomial ones, from a category with a zero object in which every object is a finite sum of copies of a generating object, into an abelian category. This classification is extended to…

We establish a functor $Kan$ from local Kan simplicial manifolds to weak Kan simplicial manifolds. It gives a solution to the problem of extending local Lie groupoids to Lie 2-groupoids.

Any non-degenerate quadratic form over a Hilbertian field (e.g., a number field) is isomorphic to a scaled trace form. In this work we extend this result to more general fields. In particular, prosolvable and prime-to-p extensions of a…

We prove that the period doubling operator has an expanding direction at the fixed point. We use the induced operator, a ``Perron-Frobenius type operator'', to study the linearization of the period doubling operator at its fixed point. We…

In this paper we introduce a description of ordered groupoids as a particular type of double categories. This enables us to turn Lawson's correspondence between ordered groupoids and left-cancellative categories into a biequivalence. We use…

Fibrations over a category $B$, introduced to category theory by Grothendieck, encode pseudo-functors $B^{op} \rightsquigarrow {\bf Cat}$, while the special case of discrete fibrations encode presheaves $B^{op} \to {\bf Set}$. A two-sided…

In this paper we present background results in enriched category theory and enriched model category theory necessary for developing model categories of enriched functors suitable for doing functor calculus.

Generalizing Duality Theorem of V. V. Fedorchuk, we prove Stone-type duality theorems for the following four categories: all of them have as objects the locally compact Hausdorff spaces, and their morphisms are, respectively, the continuous…
