We present a study on the Yoneda-Dress construction of biset functors of linear representations over a field of characteristic zero. We give a characterization of their lattices of ideals and we provide a criterion of vanishing for their…

We consider a closed symmetric monoidal category $\mathcal{M}$. We show that if $I$ is a small category then $\mathcal{M}^I$ is a closed $\mathcal{M}$-module. We rewrite the Yoneda Lemma in the case of monoidal valued functors. We derive an…

The attempt is to give a formal concpet of system, and with this provide a definition of category, that will also satisfy the definition of a system. An axiomatic base is given, for constructing the group of integers. In the process, we…

We explain the use of category theory in describing certain sorts of anyons. Yoneda's lemma leads to a simplification of that description. For the particular case of Fibonacci anyons, we also exhibit some calculations that seem to be known…

Representation theorems relate seemingly complex objects to concrete, more tractable ones. In this paper, we take advantage of the abstraction power of category theory and provide a general representation theorem for a wide class of…

I used to believe that my conventions for drawing diagrams for categorical statements could be written down in one page or less, and that the only tricky part was the technique for reconstructing objects "from their names"... but then I…

We introduce dicodensity monads: a generalisation of pointwise codensity monads generated by functors to monads generated by mixed-variant bifunctors. Our construction is based on the notion of strong dinaturality (also known as Barr…

It is well-known that the category of presheaf functors is complete and cocomplete, and that the Yoneda embedding into the presheaf category preserves products. However, the Yoneda embedding does not preserve coproducts. It is perhaps less…

Formalized $1$-category theory forms a core component of various libraries of mathematical proofs. However, more sophisticated results in fields from algebraic topology to theoretical physics, where objects have "higher structure," rely on…

The \begin{it} Invariance Theorem \end{it} of M. Gerstenhaber and S. D. Schack states that if $\mathbb{A}$ is a diagram of algebras then the subdivision functor induces a natural isomorphism between the Yoneda cohomologies of the category…

For a small category $\mathcal{D}$ we define fibrations of simplicial presheaves on the category $\mathcal{D}\times\Delta$, which we call localized $\mathcal{D}$-left fibration. We show these fibrations can be seen as fibrant objects in a…

Each object of any abelian model category has a canonical resolution as described in this article. When the model structure is hereditary we show how morphism sets in the associated homotopy category may be realized as cohomology groups…

The study of abstraction and composition - the focus of category theory - naturally leads to sophisticated diagrams which can encode complex algebraic semantics. Consequently, these diagrams facilitate a clearer visual comprehension of…

We identify morphisms of strong profunctors as a categorification of quantum supermaps. These black-box generalisations of diagrams-with-holes are hence placed within the broader field of profunctor optics, as morphisms in the category of…

In this paper we start by pointing out that Yoneda's notion of a regular span $S \colon \mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{A} \times \mathcal{B}$ can be interpreted as a special kind of morphism, that we call fiberwise opfibration, in the 2-category…

The Legendre transformation is a crucial tool in theoretical physics, known for its symmetry, especially when applied to multivariate functions. In statistical mechanics, ensembles represent the central focus. Leveraging the dimensionless…

This article tackles categorical coherence within a two-dimensional generalization of Lawvere's functorial semantics. 2-theories, a syntactical way of describing categories with structure, are presented. From the perspective here afforded,…
