In this paper, we discuss the generalization of finitary $2$-representation theory of finitary $2$-categories to finitary birepresentation theory of finitary bicategories. In previous papers on the subject, the classification of simple…
We extend the 2-representation theory of finitary 2-categories to certain 2-categories with infinitely many objects, denoted locally finitary 2-categories, and extend the classical classification results of simple transitive…
We define locally wide finitary 2-categories by relaxing the definition of finitary 2-categories to allow infinitely many objects and isomorphism classes of 1-morphisms and infinite dimensional hom-spaces of 2-morphisms. After defining…
In this article, we define and study the class of simple transitive $2$-representations of finitary $2$-categories. We prove a weak version of the classical Jordan-H\"older Theorem where the weak composition subquotients are given by simple…
Given a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we consider certain sets of idempotents of $A$, called self-injective cores, to which we associate 2-subcategories of the 2-category of projective bimodules over $A$. We classify the simple transitive…
This article surveys recent advances and future challenges in the $2$-representation theory of finitary $2$-categories with a particular emphasis on problems related to classification of various classes of $2$-representations.
A well-known result of SGA4 shows how to compute the pseudo-colimit of a category-valued pseudo-functor on a 1-category. The main result of this paper gives a generalization of this computation by constructing the weighted pseudo-colimit of…
We study the problem of classification of simple transitive 2-representations for the (non-finitary) 2-category of bimodules over the dual numbers. We show that simple transitive 2-representations with finitary apex are necessarily of rank…
In this expository paper we explain in detail how to construct bicategorical colimits of several kinds of tensor categories, for example essentially small finitely cocomplete K-linear tensor categories. The constructions are direct and…
We study the classification problem of simple transitive 2-representations of the 2-category of finite-dimensional bimodules over a radical square zero Nakayama algebra. This results in a complete classification of simple transitive…
In this article we analyze the structure of $2$-categories of symmetric projective bimodules over a finite dimensional algebra with respect to the action of a finite abelian group. We determine under which condition the resulting…
In this paper we go into the study of 2-limits and 2-colimits in the 2-category CAT the category of small categories. More precisely we show the commutation of filtered 2-colimits and finite 2-limits. It is a generalization of a classical…
We develop Morita theory for finitary additive 2-representations of finitary 2-categories. As an application we describe Morita equivalence classes for 2-categories of projective functors associated to finite dimensional algebras and for…
In this article, we develop a generalization of finitary birepresentation theory applicable to Soergel bimodules for infinite Coxeter groups. We establish a reduction process for the classification of simple birepresentations of almost…
Like categories, small 2-categories have well-understood classifying spaces. In this paper, we deal with homotopy types represented by 2-diagrams of 2-categories. Our results extend to homotopy colimits of 2-functors lower categorical…
This paper is a rather informal guide to some of the basic theory of 2-categories and bicategories, including notions of limit and colimit, 2-dimensional universal algebra, formal category theory, and nerves of bicategories. As is the way…
In this paper we introduce and investigate the notions of diagrams and discrete extensions in the study of finitary $2$-representations of finitary $2$-categories.
In this paper we complete the $\mathrm{ADE}$-like classification of simple transitive $2$-representations of Soergel bimodules in finite dihedral type, under the assumption of gradeability. In particular, we use bipartite graphs and zigzag…
This paper introduces the notion of weakly globular double categories, a particular class of strict double categories, as a way to model weak 2-categories; it explores its use in defining a double category of fractions, and shows that the…
We categorify cocompleteness results of monad theory, in the context of pseudomonads. We first prove a general result establishing that, in any 2-category, weighted bicolimits can be constructed from oplax bicolimits and bicoequalizers of…
