The Day Reflection Theorem gives conditions under which a reflective subcategory of a closed monoidal category can be equipped with a closed monoidal structure in such a way that the reflection adjunction becomes a monoidal adjunction. We…

We introduce a complete set of combinatorial data that encode the category $2\mathfrak{Cob}$ of all $2$-cobordisms. As an application, we show that the local monoids of $2\mathfrak{Cob}$ do not have finitely axiomatizable equational…

We prove a conjecture of the first and third named authors relating the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of a genus zero surface with boundary to a quantized $K$-theoretic Coulomb branch. As a consequence, we see that our skein algebra arises…

This article considers the category of commutative medial magmas with cancellation, a structure that generalizes midpoint algebras and commutative semigroups with cancellation. In this category each object admits at most one internal monoid…

We prove a structure result on proper extensions of two-sided restriction semigroups in terms of partial actions, generalizing respective results for monoids and for inverse semigroups and upgrading the latter. We introduce and study…

We prove a Simons-type holonomy theorem for totally skew 1-forms with values in a Lie algebra of linear isometries. The only transitive case, for this theorem, is the full orthogonal group. We only use geometric methods and we do not use…

A generalization of an inverse system in a category was recently introduced, as well as that of the corresponding pro-category These so called the delay-inverse systems and delay-pro-category could potentially yield a new theory of (delay-)…

We prove a general form of the regularity theorem for uniformity norms, and deduce an inverse theorem for these norms which holds for a class of compact nilspaces including all compact abelian groups, and also nilmanifolds; in particular we…

We introduce the notion of semigroup with a tight ideal series and investigate their closures in semitopological semigroups, particularly inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. As a corollary we show that the symmetric inverse…

In this paper we describe a homotopy torsion theory in the category of small symmetric monoidal categories. Thanks to the use of natural isomorphisms as basis for the nullhomotopy structure, this homotopy torsion theory enjoys some…

We show that a braided monoidal category C can be endowed with the structure of a right (and left) module category over C \times C. In fact, there is a family of such module category structures, and they are mutually isomorphic if and only…

Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a weakly idempotent complete exact category with enough injective and projective objects. Assume that $\mathcal{M} \subseteq \mathcal{E}$ is a rigid, contravariantly finite subcategory of $\mathcal{E}$ containing all…

An equivalent description of a symmetric monoidal category is introduced in which, instead of separate associator and commutator isomorphisms satisfying the usual coherence axioms, we simply have associo-commutator isomorphisms satisfying…

Given a category $\mathcal C$ and a directed partially ordered set $J$, a certain category $pro^J -\mathcal C$ on inverse systems in $\mathcal C$ is constructed such that the ordinary pro-category $pro-\mathcal C$ is the most special case…

In this paper we consider the questions of which topological semigroups embed topologically into the full transformation monoid $\mathbb{N} ^ \mathbb{N}$ or the symmetric inverse monoid $I_{\mathbb{N}}$ with their respective canonical…

We prove that the structure of right generalized inverse semigroups is determined by free \'etale actions of inverse semigroups. This leads to a tensor product interpretation of Yamada's classical struture theorem for generalized inverse…

A partial automorphism of a finite graph is an isomorphism between its vertex induced subgraphs. The set of all partial automorphisms of a given finite graph forms an inverse monoid under composition (of partial maps). We describe the…
