In this paper we introduce the notion of an operator category and two different models for homotopy theory of $\infty$-operads over an operator category -- one of which extends Lurie's theory of $\infty$-operads, the other of which is…

We develop foundations for oriented category theory, an extension of $(\infty,\infty)$-category theory obtained by systematic usage of the Gray tensor product, in order to study lax phenomena in higher category theory. As categorical…

The category of models of any theory $T$ in any first-order language $L$ has the surprising property that any small category that is elementarily equivalent with it, already embeds in it. The proof uses an abstract argument via ultrapowers,…

We extend Lawvere-Pitts prop-categories (aka. hyperdoctrines) to develop a general framework for providing "algebraic" semantics for nonclassical first-order logics. This framework includes a natural notion of substitution, which allows…

The aim of this paper is to study categorified algebraic structures and their pseudo- and lax homomorphisms using the framework of Lawvere $2$-theories, and more generally, (enhanced) $2$-dimensional sketches. The key notion we focus on is…

We present a general construction of the derived category of an algebra over an operad and establish its invariance properties. A central role is played by the enveloping operad of an algebra over an operad.

Higher-order quantum theory is an extension of quantum theory where one introduces transformations whose input and output are transformations, thus generalizing the notion of channels and quantum operations. The generalization then goes…

The recent trend in mathematics is towards a framework of abstract mathematical objects, rather than the more concrete approach of explicitly defining elements which objects were thought to consist of. A natural question to raise is whether…

The main result is that the category of ordinary modules of an affine vertex operator algebra of a simply laced Lie algebra at admissible level is rigid and thus a braided fusion category. If the level satisfies a certain coprime property…

Homotopy Type Theory is a new field of mathematics based on the surprising and elegant correspondence between Martin-Lofs constructive type theory and abstract homotopy theory. We have a powerful interplay between these disciplines - we can…

Higher structures - infinity algebras and other objects up to homotopy, categorified algebras, `oidified' concepts, operads, higher categories, higher Lie theory, higher gauge theory... - are currently intensively investigated in…

Motivated by potential applications to theoretical computer science, in particular those areas where the Curry-Howard correspondence plays an important role, as well as by the ongoing search in pure mathematics for feasible approaches to…

For a quantale $\V$, first a closure-theoretic approach to completeness and separation in $\V$-categories is presented. This approach is then generalized to $\Tth$-categories, where $\Tth$ is a topological theory that entails a set monad…

The intended model of the homotopy type theories used in Univalent Foundations is the infinity-category of homotopy types, also known as infinity-groupoids. The problem of higher structures is that of constructing the homotopy types needed…

Lawvere's algebraic theories, or Lawvere theories, underpin a categorical approach to general algebra, and Lawvere's adjunction between semantics and algebraic structure leads to an equivalence between Lawvere theories and finitary monads…

This paper proposes appropriate sound and complete proof systems for algebraic structures over metric spaces by combining the development of Quantitative Equational Theories (QET) with the Enriched Lawvere Theories. We extend QETs to Metric…

We give a classification theorem of certain geometric objects, called torsors over the sheaf of K-theory spaces, in terms of Tate vector bundles. This allows us to present a very natural and simple, alternative approach to the Tate central…

We characterize the equational theories and Lawvere theories that correspond to the categories of analytic and polynomial monads on Set, and hence also the categories of the symmetric and rigid operads in Set. We show that the category of…

Category theory provides a means through which many far-ranging fields of mathematics can be related by their similar structure. In a paper by Robinson [2], this interconnectivity afforded by categorical perspectives allowed for the…
