In our previous article [arXiv:1607.06041], we established an equivalence between pointed pivotal module tensor categories and anchored planar algebras. This article introduces the notion of unitarity for both module tensor categories and…

Anchored planar algebras, a generalized notion of Vaughan Jones' planar algebras, have recently seen use in higher category theory, functional analysis, and TQFT applications. These algebras are equipped with a natural 3-dimensional…

We introduce a notion of planar algebra, the simplest example of which is a vector space of tensors, closed under planar contractions. A planar algebra with suitable positivity properties produces a finite index subfactor of a II_1 factor,…

Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra satisfying suitable conditions such that in particular its module category has a natural vertex tensor category structure, and consequently, a natural braided tensor category structure. We prove that the…

We define Jones's planar algebra as a map of multicategories and constuct a planar algebra starting from a 1-cell in a pivotal strict 2-category. We prove finiteness results for the affine representations of finite depth planar algebras. We…

In our article [arXiv:1511.05226], we studied the commutant $\mathcal{C}'\subset \operatorname{Bim}(R)$ of a unitary fusion category $\mathcal{C}$, where $R$ is a hyperfinite factor of type $\rm II_1$, $\rm II_\infty$, or $\rm III_1$, and…

We continue the investigation of tabular algebras with trace (a certain class of associative ${\Bbb Z}[v, v^{-1}]$-algebras equipped with distinguished bases) by determining the extent to which the tabular structure may be recovered from a…

We relate commutative algebras in braided tensor categories to braid-reversed tensor equivalences, motivated by vertex algebra representation theory. First, for $\mathcal{C}$ a braided tensor category, we give a detailed construction of the…

We define annular algebras for rigid $C^{*}$-tensor categories, providing a unified framework for both Ocneanu's tube algebra and Jones' affine annular category of a planar algebra. We study the representation theory of annular algebras,…

We introduce the notions of multiplier C*-category and continuous bundle of C*-categories, as the categorical analogues of the corresponding C*-algebraic notions. Every symmetric tensor C*-category with conjugates is a continuous bundle of…

The notion of the genus of a quadratic form is generalized to vertex operator algebras. We define it as the modular braided tensor category associated to a suitable vertex operator algebra together with the central charge. Statements…

The $\mathcal{B}_p$-algebras are a family of vertex operator algebras parameterized by $p\in \mathbb Z_{\geq 2}$. They are important examples of logarithmic CFTs and appear as chiral algebras of type $(A_1, A_{2p-3})$ Argyres-Douglas…

Tangent categories provide a categorical axiomatization of the tangent bundle. There are many interesting examples and applications of tangent categories in a variety of areas such as differential geometry, algebraic geometry, algebra, and…

Circuit algebras are a symmetric analogue of Jones's planar algebras introduced to study finite-type invariants of virtual knotted objects. Circuit algebra structures appear, in different forms, across mathematics. This paper provides a…

Circuit algebras, introduced by Bar-Natan and the first author, are a generalization of Jones's planar algebras, in which one drops the planarity condition on "connection diagrams". They provide a useful language for the study of virtual…

We develop some foundations of commutative algebra, with a view towards algebraic geometry, in symmetric tensor categories. Most results establish analogues of classical theorems, in tensor categories which admit a tensor functor to some…

We review the construction of braided tensor categories and modular tensor categories from representations of vertex operator algebras, which correspond to chiral algebras in physics. The extensive and general theory underlying this…

Much of algebra and representation theory can be formulated in the general framework of tensor categories. The aim of this paper is to further develop this theory for braided tensor categories. Several results are established that do not…

This is the eighth part in a series of papers in which we introduce and develop a natural, general tensor category theory for suitable module categories for a vertex (operator) algebra. In this paper (Part VIII), we construct the braided…

We set up some foundations of generalised scheme theory related to new incompressible symmetric tensor categories. This is analogous to the relation between super schemes and the category of super vector spaces.
