The goal of this paper is to prove coherence results with respect to relational graphs for monoidal monads and comonads, i.e. monads and comonads in a monoidal category such that the endofunctor of the monad or comonad is a monoidal functor…
In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…
In this paper we put a cofibrantly generated model category structure on the category of small simplicial categories. The weak equivalences are a simplicial analogue of the notion of equivalence of categories.
We consider the quantum group $U_q(g)$ associated with a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra $g$. We display a presentation for $U_q(g)$ that we find attractive; we call this the equitable presentation. For $g=sl_2$ the equitable presentation…
The aim of this work is to study the representation dimension of cluster tilted algebras. We prove that the weak representation dimension of tame cluster tilted algebras is equal to three. We construct a generator module that reaches the…
We define a new notion of an algebraic model structure, in which the cofibrations and fibrations are retracts of coalgebras for comonads and algebras for monads, and prove "algebraic" analogs of classical results. Using a modified version…
We give a uniform explicit construction of finite two-generator presentations for the special linear groups over the integers in all ranks at least three. The construction builds on the generating-pair work of Conder--Liversidge--Vsemirnov…
A diverse collection of fusion categories may be realized by the representation theory of quantum groups. There is substantial literature where one will find detailed constructions of quantum groups, and proofs of the…
Classically, there are two model category structures on coalgebras in the category of chain complexes over a field. In one, the weak equivalences are maps which induce an isomorphism on homology. In the other, the weak equivalences are maps…
A practical approach is proposed to construct short presentations for Euclidean crystallographic groups in terms of generators and relations. For our purposes a short presentation is the one with a small number of short relators for a given…
Categories, n-categories, double categories, and multicategories (among others) all have similar definitions as collections of cells with composition operations. We give an explicit description of the information required to define any…
We construct a model structure on the category of small categories enriched over a combinatorial closed symmetric monoidal model category satisfying the monoid axiom. Weak equivalences are Dwyer-Kan equivalences, i.e. enriched functors…
This paper continues the study of the homotopy theory of algebras over polynomial monads initiated by the first author and Clemens Berger. We introduce the notion of a quasi-tame polynomial monad (generalizing tame ones) and produce…
Two factorizations of a permutation into products of cycles are equivalent if one can be obtained from the other by repeatedly interchanging adjacent disjoint factors. This paper studies the enumeration of equivalence classes under this…
The aim of this article is to give an expository account of the equivalence between modest sets and partial equivalence relations. Our proof is entirely self-contained in that we do not assume any knowledge of categorical realizability. At…
A group-category is an additively semisimple category with a monoidal product structure in which the simple objects are invertible. For example in the category of representations of a group, 1-dimensional representations are the invertible…
An affine semigroup is a finitely generated subsemigroup of $(\mathbb Z_{\ge 0}^d, +)$, and a numerical semigroup is an affine semigroup with $d = 1$. A growing body of recent work examines shifted families of numerical semigroups, that is,…
A theorem of Siebert asserts that if a sequence of semigroups of probability measures on a Lie group G is weakly convergent to a semigroup of the same type, then the corresponding generating functionals are convergent in the weak operator…
We investigate the complexity of isomorphism relations for classes of finitely generated and n-generated computably enumerable (c.e.) algebras, presented via c.e. presentations -- that is, as quotients of term algebras over decidable sets…
According to a conjecture of Lusztig, the asymptotic affine Hecke algebra should admit a description in terms of the Grothedieck group of sheaves on the square of a finite set equivariant under the action of the centralizer of a nilpotent…
