A categorification of the Heisenberg algebra is constructed in by Khovanov using graphical calculus, and left with a conjecture on the isomorphism between the Heisenberg algebra and Grothendieck ring of the constructed category. We give a…

We define a category of planar diagrams whose Grothendieck group contains an integral version of the infinite rank Heisenberg algebra, thus yielding a categorification of this algebra. Our category, which is a q-deformation of one defined…

We associate a monoidal category $\mathcal{H}_B$, defined in terms of planar diagrams, to any graded Frobenius superalgebra $B$. This category acts naturally on modules over the wreath product algebras associated to $B$. To $B$ we also…

A new calculus of planar diagrams involving diagrammatics for biadjoint functors and degenerate affine Hecke algebras is introduced. The calculus leads to an additive monoidal category whose Grothendieck ring contains an integral form of…

We associate a monoidal category $\mathcal{H}^\lambda$ to each dominant integral weight $\lambda$ of $\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_p$ or $\mathfrak{sl}_\infty$. These categories, defined in terms of planar diagrams, act naturally on categories…

We revisit the definition of the Heisenberg category of central charge k. For central charge -1, this category was introduced originally by Khovanov, but with some additional cyclicity relations which we show here are unnecessary. For other…

We associate a graded monoidal supercategory $\mathcal{H}\mathit{eis}_{F,k}$ to every graded Frobenius superalgebra $F$ and integer $k$. These categories, which categorify a broad range of lattice Heisenberg algebras, recover many…

We associate a diagrammatic monoidal category $\mathcal{H}\textit{eis}_k(A;z,t)$, which we call the quantum Frobenius Heisenberg category, to a symmetric Frobenius superalgebra $A$, a central charge $k \in \mathbb{Z}$, and invertible…

We explore the connection between the notion of Hopf category and the categorification of the infinite dimensional Heisenberg algebra via graphical calculus proposed by M.Khovanov. We show that the existence of a Hopf structure on a…

We solve a problem proposed by Khovanov by constructing, for any set of primes $S$, a triangulated category (in fact a stable $\infty$-category) whose Grothendieck group is $S^{-1}\mathbf{Z}$. More generally, for any exact $\infty$-category…

Starting with a k-linear or DG category admitting a (homotopy) Serre functor, we construct a k-linear or DG 2-category categorifying the Heisenberg algebra of the numerical K-group of the original category. We also define a 2-categorical…

We define a faithful linear monoidal functor from the partition category, and hence from Deligne's category $\mathrm{\underline{Re}p}(S_t)$, to the Heisenberg category. We show that the induced map on Grothendieck rings is injective and…

Khovanov and Sazdanovic recently introduced symmetric monoidal categories parameterized by rational functions and given by quotients of categories of two-dimensional cobordisms. These categories generalize Deligne's interpolation categories…

We construct a natural generalization of the Grothendieck group $\mathrm{K}_0$ to the case of possibly unpointed categories admitting pushouts by using the concept of heaps recently introduced by Brezinzki. In case of a monoidal category,…

We give an introductory account of Khovanov's categorification of the Heisenberg algebra, and construct a combinatorial model for it in a 2-category of spans of groupoids. We also treat a categorification of $U(sl_n)$ in a similar way.…

Cluster categories were introduced in 2006 by Buan-Marsh-Reineke-Reiten-Todorov in order to categorify acyclic cluster algebras without coefficients. Their construction was generalized by Amiot (2009) and Plamondon (2011) to arbitrary…
