For a regular multiplier Hopf algebra $A$, the Yetter-Drinfel'd module category ${}_{A}\mathcal{YD}^{A}$ is equivalent to the centre $Z({}_{A}\mathcal{M})$ of the unital left $A$-module category ${}_{A}\mathcal{M}$. Then we introduce the…
If A is a weak C^*-Hopf algebra then the category of finite dimensional unitary representations of A is a monoidal C^*-category with monoidal unit being the GNS representation D_eps associated to the counit \eps. This category has…
We discuss what it means for a symmetric monoidal category to be a module over a commutative semiring category. Each of the categories of (1) cartesian monoidal categories, (2) semiadditive categories, and (3) connective spectra can be…
Let $H_1$ and $H_2$ be Hopf algebras which are not necessarily finite dimensional and $\alpha,\beta \in Aut_{Hopf}(H_1), \gamma,\delta \in Aut_{Hopf}(H_2)$. In this paper, we introduce a category ${}_{H_1}\mathcal{LR}_{H_2}(\alpha, \beta,…
We show that, with some technical conditions, an abelian category can be embedded into the category of bimodules over a ring. The case of semisimple rigid monoidal categories is studied in more detail.
This is a continuation of the paper "Modular tensor categories and orbifold theories", arXiv:math.QA/0104242. It discusses orbifold models of conformal filed theory, or, in mathematical language, question of constructing the category of…
If H is a Hopf algebra with bijective antipode and \alpha, \beta \in Aut_{Hopf}(H), we introduce a category_H{\cal YD}^H(\alpha, \beta), generalizing both Yetter-Drinfeld and anti-Yetter-Drinfeld modules. We construct a braided T-category…
Grothendieck-Verdier duality is a powerful and ubiquitous structure on monoidal categories, which generalises the notion of rigidity. Hopf algebroids are a generalisation of Hopf algebras, to a non-commutative base ring. Just as the…
This work contributes to clarifying several relationships between certain higher categorical structures and the homotopy type of their classifying spaces. Bicategories (in particular monoidal categories) have well understood simple…
We show that every involutive Hopf monoid in a complete and finitely cocomplete symmetric monoidal category gives rise to invariants of oriented surfaces defined in terms of ribbon graphs. For every ribbon graph this yields an object in the…
We exhibit a monoidal structure on the category of finite sets indexed by P-trees for a finitary polynomial endofunctor P. This structure categorifies the monoid scheme (over Spec N) whose semiring of functions is (a P-version of) the…
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…
We develop a theory of generalized characters of local systems in $\infty$-categories, which extends classical character theory for group representations and, in particular, the induced character formula. A key aspect of our approach is…
We systematically study noncommutative and nonassociative algebras A and their bimodules as algebras and bimodules internal to the representation category of a quasitriangular quasi-Hopf algebra. We enlarge the morphisms of the monoidal…
We prove that, under mild assumptions, the $Q$-shaped derived categories introduced by Holm and J{\o}rgensen are equivalent to derived categories of differential graded bimodules over differential graded categories. This yields new derived…
We lay out the theory of a multiplicity in the setting of a triangulated category having a central ring action from a graded-commutative ring $R$, in other words, an $R$-linear triangulated category. The invariant we consider is modelled on…
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a finite braided multitensor category. Let $B$ be Majid's automorphism braided group of $\mathcal{C}$, then $B$ is a cocommutative Hopf algebra in $\mathcal{C}$. We show that the center of $\mathcal{C}$ is isomorphic to…
Following the theory of principal $\infty$-bundles of Niklaus-Schreiber-Steveson, we develop a homotopy categorification of Hopf algebras, which model quantum groups. We study their higher-representation theory in the setting of…
The aim of this paper is to establish a duality between the category of discrete groupoids and the category of geometrically transitive commutative Hopf algebroids in the sense of P. Deligne and A. Brugui\`eres. In one direction we have the…
In this paper we introduce the notion of weak operator and the theory of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over a weak braided Hopf algebra with invertible antipode in a strict monoidal category. We prove that the class of such objects constitutes a…
