In fairly elementary terms this paper presents, and expands upon, a recent result by Garner by which the notion of topologicity of a concrete functor is subsumed under the concept of total cocompleteness of enriched category theory.…

We study group graded extensions of fusion 2-categories. As an application, we obtain a homotopy theoretic classification of fermionic strongly fusion 2-categories. We examine various examples in detail.

Virtual double categories provide an effective framework for formal category theory. Recent work has investigated the question of higher morphisms between virtual double categories, following on from work on higher morphisms between double…

We study locally constant coefficients. We first study the theory of homotopy Kan extensions with locally constant coefficients in model categories, and explain how it characterizes the homotopy theory of small categories. We explain how to…

We compare two possible ways of defining a category of 1-combs, the first intensionally as coend optics and the second extensionally as a quotient by the operational behaviour of 1-combs on lower-order maps. We show that there is a full and…

This is a short survey illustrating some of the essential aspects of the theory of canonical extensions. In addition some topological results about canonical extensions of lattices with additional operations in finitely generated varieties…

We establish a Dwyer-Kan equivalence of relative categories of combinatorial model categories, presentable quasicategories, and other models for locally presentable (infinity,1)-categories. This implies that the underlying quasicategories…

It is well known that to give an oplax functor of bicategories $\mathbf{1}\to\mathscr{C}$ is to give a comonad in $\mathscr{C}$. Here we generalize this fact, replacing the terminal bicategory by any bicategory $\mathscr{A}$ for which the…

This is essentially an illustration for the general technology of homotopical enhancements developed recently in arxiv:2409.17489. We take the derived category of an abelian category, and we look at the full subcategory spanned by complexes…

For an oriented knot $K$, we construct a functor from the category of pointed quandles to the category of quandles in three different ways. We also extend the quandle cocycle invariants of knots by using these quandle-valued invariant of…

We show that the additive category of chain complexes parametrized by a finite simplicial complex $K$ forms a category with chain duality. This fact, never fully proven in the original reference, is fundamental for Ranicki's algebraic…

Like many other physical quantities, the optical force can be expanded using multipole expansion, which has been done in [Nat. Photon. 5, 531], up to electric octupole order. However, in that study, the existence of radiation multipoles…

In this paper we start by pointing out that Yoneda's notion of a regular span $S \colon \mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{A} \times \mathcal{B}$ can be interpreted as a special kind of morphism, that we call fiberwise opfibration, in the 2-category…

In this paper, we prove that given a differential graded category C and B a full differential graded subcategory closed under coproducts, there is a canonical recollement of differential graded categories, for which we use enriched…

We consider limits over categories of extensions and show how certain well-known functors on the category of groups turn out as such limits. We also discuss higher (or derived) limits over categories of extensions.

Categories enriched over a commutative unital quantale can be studied as generalized, or many-valued, ordered structures. Because many concepts, such as complete distributivity, in lattice theory can be characterized by existence of certain…

In this article, we introduce the notion of a double Fock space of type B. We will show that this new construction is compatible with combinatorics of counting positive and negative inversions on a hyperoctahedral group.

Using the language of double categories we generalise a classical result on finite-product-preserving left Kan extensions, by Ad\'amek and Rosick\'y, to one on left Kan extensions that preserve algebraic structures defined by `suitable'…
