Presentations of categories are a well-known algebraic tool to provide descriptions of categories by means of generators, for objects and morphisms, and relations on morphisms. We generalize here this notion, in order to consider situations…

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 paper studies the complexity of determining whether a formula in the modal logics characterizing the nested-simulation semantics is characteristic for some process, which is equivalent to determining whether the formula is satisfiable…

Quantitative algebras are $\Sigma$-algebras acting on metric spaces, where operations are nonexpanding. Mardare, Panangaden and Plotkin introduced 1-basic varieties as categories of quantitative algebras presented by quantitative equations.…

This paper investigates the relations between modular graph forms, which are generalizations of the modular graph functions that were introduced in earlier papers motivated by the structure of the low energy expansion of genus-one Type II…

We study monoidal 2-categories and bicategories in terms of categorical extensions and the cohomological data they determine in appropriate cohomology theories with coefficients in Picard groupoids. In particular, we analyze the hierarchy…

The Homeomorphic Embedding relation has been amply used for defining termination criteria of symbolic methods for program analysis, transformation, and verification. However, homeomorphic embedding has never been investigated in the context…

We exhibit sufficient conditions for a monoidal monad T on a monoidal category C to induce a monoidal structure on the Eilenberg--Moore category C^T that represents bimorphisms. The category of actions in C^T is then shown to be monadic…

Larrauri and \v{Z}ivn\'y [ICALP'25/ACM ToCL'24] recently established a complete complexity classification of the problem of solving a system of equations over a monoid $N$ assuming that a solution exists over a monoid $M$, where both…

We compare closed and rigid monoidal categories. Closedness is defined by the tensor product having a right adjoint: the internal hom functor. Rigidity, on the other hand, generalises the duality of finite-dimensional vector spaces. In the…

Enterprise modeling deals with the increasing complexity of processes and systems by operationalizing model content and by linking complementary models and languages, thus amplifying the model-value beyond mere comprehensible pictures. To…

We show that any multiple-valued function can be represented by a linear lambda term typed in a second-order polymorphic type system, using two distinct styles. The first is a circuit style, which mimics combinational circuits in switching…

Let $k =\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements and $E$ an elliptic curve over $k$. Let $F = k(E)$ be the function field over $E$ and let $\mathcal{O} = k[E]$ be the ring of integers. We fix the place at $\infty$ of $F$ and let…
