In this paper, we compare several functors which take simplicial categories or model categories to complete Segal spaces, which are particularly nice simplicial spaces which, like simplicial categories, can be considered to be models for…
We point out that double categories provide a natural setting for modular functors obtained by a (bicategorical) string-net construction: The source of the modular functor -- which is now a double functor -- is a symmetric monoidal double…
Motivated by Stanley's conjecture on the multiplication of Jack symmetric functions, we prove a couple of identities showing that skew Jack symmetric functions are semi-invariant up to translation and rotation of a $\pi$ angle of the skew…
Many monoidal-type objects are known to be classified by maps from the Catalan simplicial set $\mathbb{C}$ to various nerves of categories and higher categories. There are, for example, three different nerves of the 2-category of categories…
We show that the spectral norm of a $d$-mode real or complex symmetric tensor in $n$ variables can be computed by finding the fixed points of the corresponding polynomial map. For a generic complex symmetric tensor the number of fixed…
We study a certain monoid of endofunctors of the stable homotopy category that includes localizations with respect to finite unions of Morava $K$-theories. We work in an axiomatic framework that can also be applied to analogous questions in…
A bicategory approach to differential cohomology is presented. Based on the axioms of Bunke-Schick, a symmetric monoidal groupoid is associated to differential refinements of cohomology theories. It is proven that such differential…
We study weak commutative algebras in a symmetric monoidal model category $\mathscr{M}$. We provide a model structure on these algebras for any symmetric monoidal model category that is combinatorial and left proper. Our motivation was to…
A stable model category is a setting for homotopy theory where the suspension functor is invertible. The prototypical examples are the category of spectra in the sense of stable homotopy theory and the category of unbounded chain complexes…
We give an operadic definition of a genuine symmetric monoidal G-category, and we prove that its classifying space is a genuine E_\infty G-space. We do this by developing some very general categorical coherence theory. We combine results of…
In this paper we construct a symmetric monoidal closed model category of coherently commutative Picard groupoids. We construct another model category structure on the category of (small) permutative categories whose fibrant objects are…
Mott noted a one-to-one correspondence between saturated multiplicatively closed subsets of a domain D and directed convex subgroups of the group of divisibility D. With this, we construct a functor between inclusions into saturated…
A $\delta$-vector $\delta(\Pc)= (\delta_0, \delta_1, ..., \delta_d)$ is called shifted symmetric if $\delta_{d-i} = \delta_{i+1}$ for each $0 \leq i \leq [(d-1)/2]$. A natural family of $(0,1)$-polytopes with shifted symmetric…
The goal of the paper is to establish and to investigate a fully faithful embedding of the category of group operads into that of crossed interval groups. For this, we introduce a monoidal structure on the slice of the category of operads…
This article provides an account of the functorial correspondence between irreducible singular $G$-monopoles on $S^1\times \Sigma$ and $\vec{t}$-stable meromorphic pairs on $\Sigma$. The main theorem of [1] is thus generalized here from…
We prove Steinebrunner's conjecture on the biequivalence between (colored) properads and labelled cospan categories. The main part of the work is to establish a 1-categorical, strict version of the conjecture, showing that the category of…
When designing plans in engineering, it is often necessary to consider attributes associated to objects, e.g. the location of a robot. Our aim in this paper is to incorporate attributes into existing categorical formalisms for planning,…
In this paper we show how to modify cofibrations in a monoidal model category so that the tensor unit becomes cofibrant while keeping the same weak equivalences. We obtain aplications to enriched categories and coloured operads in stable…
A well-known open problem in graph theory asks whether Stanley's chromatic symmetric function, a generalization of the chromatic polynomial of a graph, distinguishes between any two non-isomorphic trees. Previous work has proven the…
The bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety is known to be equivalent to the triangulated category of perfect modules over a DG algebra. DG algebras, arising in this way, have to satisfy some compactness…
