We describe a general framework for notions of commutativity based on enriched category theory. We extend Eilenberg and Kelly's tensor product for categories enriched over a symmetric monoidal base to a tensor product for categories…
We introduce a class of good endofunctors of $C^{*}$-algebras, endow it with a structure of a bimonoidal category, and define homotopies of natural transformations between such endofunctors. For every pair of $C^{*}$-algebras and a good…
We give a framework to produce constructible functions from natural functors between categories, without need of a morphism of moduli spaces to model the functor. We show using the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence that any natural (derived)…
We settle several questions about the theory of universal deformation quantization of Lie bialgebras by giving their complete classification up to homotopy equivalence. An important new technical ingredient introduced in this paper is an…
A symmetric monoidal category naturally arises as the mathematical structure that organizes physical systems, processes, and composition thereof, both sequentially and in parallel. This structure admits a purely graphical calculus. This…
In this work, we study the deformation theory of $\cE_n$-rings and the $\cE_n$ analogue of the tangent complex, or topological Andr\'e-Quillen cohomology. We prove a generalization of a conjecture of Kontsevich, that there is a fiber…
In this paper, first we introduce the notion of an embedding tensor on a 3-Lie algebra, which naturally induces a 3-Leibniz algebra. Using the derived bracket, we construct a Lie 3-algebra, whose Maurer-Cartan elements are embedding…
Let G be a group and V a finite dimensional representation of G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Let $d_n(V)$ be the number of indecomposable summands of $V^{\otimes n}$ of nonzero dimension mod p. It is easy to…
We upgrade the classical operation of \textit{isomonodromic deformations} along a path $\gamma$ to a functor $\mathbb{P}_{\gamma}$ between categories of flat connections with logarithmic singularities along a divisor $D$, which itself…
We first study commutative, pointed monoids providing basic definitions and results in a manner similar commutative ring theory. Included are results on chain conditions, primary decomposition as well as normalization for a special class of…
Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a small category admitting binary products. We show that the whole theory of monoidal $\mathcal{S}$-fibered categories, which is customarily formulated in terms of the usual internal tensor product, can be rephrased…
We develop a unified representation theory for the categories of finite subsets and relation-preserving maps of highly homogeneous relational structures classified by Cameron. For any commutative coefficient ring $k$, we extend the…
We prove a version of the Deligne conjecture for $n$-fold monoidal abelian categories $A$ over a field $k$ of characteristic 0, assuming some compatibility and non-degeneracy conditions for $A$. The output of our construction is a weak…
We prove thst the deformation complex of a d-algebra (shifted by 1-d) carries a natural structure of (d+1)-algebra. This is a purely algebraic version of a similkar theorem of Kontsevich.
In order to solve two problems in deformation theory, we establish natural structures of homotopy Lie algebras and of homotopy associative algebras on tensor products of algebras of different types and on mapping spaces between coalgebras…
We study the structure group of a canonical algebraic curvature tensor built from a symmetric bilinear form, and show that in most cases it coincides with the isometry group of the symmetric form from which it is built. Our main result is…
To any non-negatively graded dg Lie algebra $g$ over a field $k$ of characteristic zero we assign a functor $\Sigma_g: art/k \to Kan$ from the category of commutative local artinian $k$-algebras with the residue field $k$ to the category of…
We introduce simple models for associative algebras and bimodules in the context of non-symmetric $\infty$-operads, and use these to construct an $(\infty,2)$-category of associative algebras, bimodules, and bimodule homomorphisms in a…
We prove the first nontrivial reconstruction theorem for modular tensor categories: the category associated to any twisted Drinfeld double of any finite group, can be realised as the representation category of a completely rational…
In [arXiv:1509.02937], the notion of a module tensor category was introduced as a braided monoidal central functor $F\colon \mathcal{V}\longrightarrow \mathcal{T}$ from a braided monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ to a monoidal category…
