Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unit. We develop a Hochschild cohomology theory in the category $\mathcal{F}$ of linear functors defined from an essentially small symmetric monoidal category enriched in $R$-Mod, to $R$-Mod. The category…

This paper develops the basics of the theory of involutive categories and shows that such categories provide the natural setting in which to describe involutive monoids. It is shown how categories of Eilenberg-Moore algebras of involutive…

In this paper, we introduce a cofibrant simplicial category that we call the free homotopy coherent adjunction and characterize its n-arrows using a graphical calculus that we develop here. The hom-spaces are appropriately fibrant, indeed…

The monoidal category of Soergel bimodules can be thought of as a categorification of the Hecke algebra of a finite Weyl group. We present this category, when the Weyl group is the symmetric group, in the language of planar diagrams with…

We study cocompleteness, co-wellpoweredness and generators in the centralizer category of an object or morphism in a monoidal category, and the center or the weak center of a monoidal category. We explicitly give some answers for when…

We study monoidal categories that enjoy a certain weakening of the rigidity property, namely, the existence of a dualizing object in the sense of Grothendieck and Verdier. We call them Grothendieck-Verdier categories. Notable examples…

In this work, we establish certain enrichments of dual algebraic structures in the setting of monoidal double categories. In more detail, we obtain a tensored and cotensored enrichment of monads in comonads, as well as a tensored and…

It is common to encounter symmetric monoidal categories $\mathcal{C}$ for which every object is equipped with an algebraic structure, in a way that is compatible with the monoidal product and unit in $\mathcal{C}$. We define this formally…

A morphism of a category which is simultaneously an epimorphism and a monomorphism is called a bimorphism. In \cite{DR2} we gave characterizations of monomorphisms (resp. epimorphisms) in arbitrary pro-categories, pro-(C), where (C) has…

We give an alternate conception of string diagrams as labeled 1-dimensional oriented cobordisms, the operad of which we denote by Cob/O, where O is the set of string labels. The axioms of traced (symmetric monoidal) categories are fully…

Ordered, linear, and other substructural type systems allow us to expose deep properties of programs at the syntactic level of types. In this paper, we develop a family of unary logical relations that allow us to prove consequences of…

Riehl and Verity have established that for a quasi-category $A$ that admits limits, and a homotopy coherent monad on $A$ which does not preserve limits, the Eilenberg-Moore object still admits limits; this can be interpreted as a…

A variant of the trace in a monoidal category is given in the setting of closed monoidal derivators, which is applicable to endomorphisms of fiberwise dualizable objects. Functoriality of this trace is established. As an application, an…

Abstract inner automorphisms can be used to promote any category into a 2-category, and we study two-dimensional limits and colimits in the resulting 2-categories. Existing connected colimits and limits in the starting category become…

We study the relationship between presheaf constructions and free cocompletions in the context of formal category theory, elucidating the coincidence between the two concepts in familiar settings. We show that, in a virtual equipment…

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…

We characterize 1-complemented subspaces of finite codimension in strictly monotone one-$p$-convex, $2<p<\infty,$ sequence spaces. Next we describe, up to isometric isomorphism, all possible types of 1-unconditional structures in sequence…
