We develop a notion of iterated monoidal category and show that this notion corresponds in a precise way to the notion of iterated loop space. Specifically the group completion of the nerve of such a category is an iterated loop space and…

A graded tensor category over a group $G$ will be called a strongly $G$-graded tensor category if every homogeneous component has at least one multiplicativily invertible object. Our main result is a description of the module categories…

Presentations of categories are a well-known algebraic tool to provide descriptions of categories by means of generators, for objects and morphisms, and relations on morphisms. We generalize here this notion, in order to consider situations…

Classical multi-sorted equational theories and their free algebras have been fundamental in mathematics and computer science. In this paper, we present a generalization of multi-sorted equational theories from the classical ($Set$-enriched)…

Tensor products are ubiquitous in algebra, topology, logic and category theory. The present paper explores the monoidal structure of the category $\mathcal{V}\hspace{0pt}\mbox{-}\hspace{.5pt}\mathbf{Sup}$ of separated cocomplete enriched…

We classify the twisted tensor products of a finite set algebra with a two elements set algebra using colored quivers obtained through considerations analogous to Ore extensions. This provides also a classification of entwining structures…

We show that some recent constructions in the literature, named `weak' generalizations, can be systematically treated by passing from 2-categories to categories enriched in the Cartesian monoidal category of Cauchy complete categories.

We define the Drinfeld center of a monoidal category enriched over a braided monoidal category, and show that every modular tensor category can be realized in a canonical way as the Drinfeld center of a self-enriched monoidal category. We…

Quantitative algebras are algebras enriched in the category $\mathsf{Met}$ of metric spaces so that all operations are nonexpanding. Mardare, Plotkin and Panangaden introduced varieties (aka $1$-basic varieties) as classes of quantitative…

In this work, inspired by some physical intuitions, we define a series of symmetry enriched categories to describe symmetry enriched topological (SET) orders, and define a new tensor product, called the relative tensor product, which…

This paper concerns a stochastic construction of probabilistic coherent spaces by employing novel ingredients (i) linear exponential comonads arising properly in the measure-theory (ii) continuous orthogonality between measures and…

Working in the framework of $(T, V)$-categories, for a symmetric monoidal closed category $V$ and a (not necessarily cartesian) monad $T$, we present a common account to the study of ordered compact Hausdorff spaces and stably compact…

This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…

We initiate the systematic study of modular representations of symmetric groups that arise via the braiding in (symmetric) tensor categories over fields of positive characteristic. We determine what representations appear for certain…

We continue to develop the theory of monads and multitensors. The central result of this paper - the lifting theorem for multitensors - enables us to see the Gray tensor product of 2-categories and the Crans tensor product of Gray…

Magnitude homology is an invariant of enriched categories which generalizes ordinary categorical homology -- the homology of the classifying space of a small category. The classifying space can also be generalized in a different direction:…

We define new norms for symmetric tensors over ordered normed spaces; these norms are defined by considering linear combinations of tensor products or powers of positive elements only. Relations between the different norms are studied. The…

We axiomatically define (pre-)Hilbert categories. The axioms resemble those for monoidal Abelian categories with the addition of an involutive functor. We then prove embedding theorems: any locally small pre-Hilbert category whose monoidal…

We define the e\~ne product for the multiplicative group of polynomials and formal power series with coefficients on a commutative ring and unitary constant coefficient. This defines a commutative ring structure where multiplication is the…

We show that the category of numerically generated pointed spaces is complete, cocomplete, and monoidally closed with respect to the smash product, and then utilize these features to establish a simple but flexible method for constructing…
