Properties of morphisms represented by so-called 'string diagrams' of monoidal categories (and their braided and symmetric derivatives), mainly their resistance in value to isotopic deformation, have made the usage of graphical calculi…
Generalizing the theory of parity sheaves on complex algebraic stacks due to Juteau-Mautner-Williamson, we develop a theory of twisted equivariant parity sheaves. We use this formalism to construct a modular incarnation of Lusztig and Yun's…
Let A, B, S be categories, let F:A-->S and G:B-->S be functors. We assume that for "many" objects a in A, there exists an object b in B such that F(a) is isomorphic to G(b). We establish a general framework under which it is possible to…
For a braided vector space $(V,\sigma)$ with braiding $\sigma$ of Hecke type, we introduce three associative algebra structures on the space $\oplus_{p=0}^{M}\mathrm{End}S_\sigma^p(V)$ of graded endomorphisms of the quantum symmetric…
A modified trace for a finite k-linear pivotal category is a family of linear forms on endomorphism spaces of projective objects which has cyclicity and so-called partial trace properties. We show that a non-degenerate modified trace…
We develop a rigidity criterion to show that in simplicial model categories with a compatible symmetric monoidal structure, operad structures can be automatically lifted along certain maps. This is applied to obtain an unpublished result of…
Simple cycles on a digraph form a trace monoid under the rule that two such cycles commute if and only if they are vertex disjoint. This rule describes the spatial configuration of simple cycles on the digraph. Cartier and Foata have showed…
Left invariant metrics induced by the p-norms of the trace in the matrix algebra are studied on the general lineal group. By means of the Euler-Lagrange equations, existence and uniqueness of extremal paths for the length functional are…
Given a Hopf algebra in a symmetric monoidal category with duals, the category of modules inherits the structure of a monoidal category with duals. If the notion of algebra is replaced with that of monad on a monoidal category with duals…
We associate a rational number $\chi(\mathcal{A})$ to every category $\mathcal{A}$ whose object and morphism sets are finite. We show that the assignment $\chi$ is additive under disjoint union and it preserves products. Hence we consider…
We introduce two families of diagrammatic monoidal supercategories. The first family, depending on an associative superalgebra, generalizes the oriented Brauer category. The second, depending on an involutive superalgebra, generalizes the…
We prove that a Hom-finite additive category having determined morphisms on both sides is a dualizing variety. This complements a result by Krause. We prove that in a Hom-finite abelian category having Serre duality, a morphism is right…
We introduce the concept of morphism of pseudogroups generalizing the \'etal\'e morphisms of Haefliger. With our definition, any continuous foliated map induces a morphism between the corresponding holonomy pseudogroups. The main theorem…
Let A be a finite-dimensional associative algebra and $\phi$ a symmetric linear function on $A$. In this note, we will show that the pseudotrace maps are obtained as special cases of well-known symmetric linear functions on the endomorphism…
A finite tensor category is called pointed if all its simple objects are invertible. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for two pointed semisimple categories to be dual to each other with respect to a module category. Whenever the…
Among ideals of compact operators on a Hilbert space we identify a subclass of those closed with respect to the logarithmic submajorization. Within this subclass, we answer the questions asked by Pietsch \cite{Pietsch_nachrichten} and by…
Higher Homotopy van Kampen Theorems allow the computation as colimits of certain homotopical invariants of glued spaces. One corollary is to describe homotopical excision in critical dimensions in terms of induced modules and crossed…
A compact closed bicategory is a symmetric monoidal bicategory where every object is equipped with a weak dual. The unit and counit satisfy the usual "zig-zag" identities of a compact closed category only up to natural isomorphism, and the…
The main goal of this paper is to give a complete proof of the trace theorem for Besov-type spaces of generalized smoothness associated with complete Bernstein functions satisfying certain scaling conditions on $d$-sets $D\subset\mathbb…
We show that every involutive Hopf monoid in a complete and finitely cocomplete symmetric monoidal category gives rise to invariants of oriented surfaces defined in terms of ribbon graphs. For every ribbon graph this yields an object in the…
