We develop a 2-dimensional version of accessibility and presentability compatible with the formalism of flat pseudofunctors. First we give prerequisites on the different notions of 2-dimensional colimits, filteredness and cofinality; in…
This thesis focuses on topics in 2-category theory: in particular on double categories, pseudomonads and codescent objects. In Chapter 2 we recall all the necessary notions. In Chapter 3 we show that factorization systems can be…
We give a definition of weak morphism of $T$-algebras, for a $2$-monad $T$, with respect to an arbitrary family $\Omega$ of $2$-cells of the base $2$-category. By considering particular choices of $\Omega$, we recover the concepts of lax,…
Using methods of computer algebra, especially Gr\"obner bases for submodules of free modules over polynomial rings, we solve a classification problem in theory of algebraic operads: we show that the only nontrivial (possibly inhomogeneous)…
We describe the canonical weak distributive law $\delta \colon \mathcal S \mathcal P \to \mathcal P \mathcal S$ of the powerset monad $\mathcal P$ over the $S$-left-semimodule monad $\mathcal S$, for a class of semirings $S$. We show that…
We present a classification of the so-called "additive symmetric 2-cocycles" of arbitrary degree and dimension over Z/p, along with a partial result and some conjectures for m-cocycles over Z/p, m > 2. This expands greatly on a result…
We use Kan injectivity to axiomatise concepts in the 2-category of topoi. We showcase the expressivity of this language through many examples, and we establish some aspects of the formal theory of Kan extension in this 2-category (pointwise…
A weak entwining structure in a 2-category K consists of a monad t and a comonad c, together with a 2-cell relating both structures in a way that generalizes a mixed distributive law.A weak entwining structure can be characterized as a…
A well-known challenge in the semantics of programming languages is how to combine non-determinism and probability. At a technical level, the problem arises from the fact that there is a no distributive law between the powerset monad and…
In this paper we strengthen the relationship between Yoneda structures and KZ doctrines by showing that for any locally fully faithful KZ doctrine, with the notion of admissibility as defined by Bunge and Funk, all of the Yoneda structure…
As an example of the categorical apparatus of pseudo algebras over 2-theories, we show that pseudo algebras over the 2-theory of categories can be viewed as pseudo double categories with folding or as appropriate 2-functors into…
We give a lightweight alternative construction of Jacobs's distributive law for multisets and distributions that does not involve any combinatorics. We first give a distributive law for lists and distributions, then apply a general theorem…
Pronk's theorem on bicategories of fractions is applied, in almost all cases in the literature, to 2-categories of geometrically presentable stacks on a 1-site. We give an proof that subsumes all previous such results and which is purely…
We study the canonical weak distributive law $\delta$ of the powerset monad over the semimodule monad for a certain class of semirings containing, in particular, positive semifields. For this subclass we characterise $\delta$ as a convex…
The concept of a Kleene algebra (sometimes also called Kleene lattice) was already generalized by the first author for non-distributive lattices under the name pseudo-Kleene algebra. We extend these concepts to posets and show how…
The center Z(C) of an autonomous category C is monadic over C (if certain coends exist in C). The notion of Hopf monad naturally arises if one tries to reconstruct the structure of Z(C) in terms of its monad Z: we show that Z is a…
Distributive laws of set functors over the powerset monad (also known as Kleisli laws for the powerset monad) are well-known to be in one-to-one correspondence with extensions of set functors to functors on the category of sets and…
Monads play an important role in both the syntax and semantics of modern functional programming languages. The problem of combining them has been of profound interest at least since the 90s, and different approaches have been employed to…
For a (co)monad T_l on a category M, an object X in M, and a functor \Pi: M \to C, there is a (co)simplex Z^*:=\Pi T_l^{* +1} X in C. Our aim is to find criteria for para-(co)cyclicity of Z^*. Construction is built on a distributive law of…
In order to be able to use methods of Universal Algebra for investigating posets, we assign to every pseudocomplemented poset, to every relatively pseudocomplemented poset and to every sectionally pseudocomplemented poset a certain algebra…
