In this paper, we address the construction of homotopy bicategories of $(\infty,2)$-categories, which we take as being modeled by 2-fold Segal spaces. Our main result is the concrete construction of a functor $h_2$ from the category of…
In this paper we give a summary of the comparisons between different definitions of so-called (\infty,1)-categories, which are considered to be models for \infty-categories whose n-morphisms are all invertible for n>1. They are also, from…
A double category is constructed from a `fattened' version of a given category, motivated in part by a context of parallel transport. We also study monoidal structures on the underlying category and on the fattened category.
We have generalised the notion of categorical theory in model theory to the context of coherent theories. We prove a duality result between the full sub-2-category of pretopoi which are categorical, and the 2-category of profinite monoids.…
The aim of this short note is to establish a 2-equivalence between a certain 2-category of foams and that of singular Soergel bimodules of type A.
We develop a general theory of (extended) inner autoequivalences of objects of any 2-category, generalizing the theory of isotropy groups to the 2-categorical setting. We show how dense subcategories let one compute isotropy in the presence…
The unstraightening construction due to Lurie establishes an equivalence between presheaves and fibrations, using one prominent model of $(\infty,1)$-categories, namely quasi-categories. In this work we generalize this result by proving…
Centers of categories capture the natural operations on their objects. Homotopy coherent centers are introduced here as an extension of this notion to categories with an associated homotopy theory. These centers can also be interpreted as…
This is an expository paper providing an overview of the unstable motivic homotopy category using the theory of $(\infty,1)$-categories. In this paper, we examine two constructions in the literature and discuss their equivalence.
A generalization of the notion of an $\infty$-category is presented, allowing for ($\infty$-)cat(egorie)s that may have non-invertible higher morphisms.
We examine the use of classes to formulate several categorical notions. This leads to two proposals: an explicit structure for working with subobjects, and a hierarchy of $k$-classes. We apply the latter to both ordinary and higher…
Abstract inner automorphisms can be used to promote any category into a 2-category, and we study two-dimensional limits and colimits in the resulting 2-categories. Existing connected colimits and limits in the starting category become…
A duoidal category is a category equipped with two monoidal structures in which one is (op)lax monoidal with respect to the other. In this paper we introduce duoidal $\infty$-categories which are counterparts of duoidal categories in the…
Multimodal normal incestual systems are investigated in terms of multiple categories. The different sorted composition of operators are exhibited as 2-cells in multiple categories built up from 2-categories giving rise to different axioms.…
(Pseudo) double categories have two sorts of morphisms: tight ones which compose strictly, and loose ones which compose up to coherent isomorphism. In this paper, we consider bimodules between double categories in the loose direction. We…
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…
The bulk of this paper is devoted to the comparison of several models for the theory of (infinity,2)-categories: that is, higher categories in which all k-morphisms are invertible for k > 2 (the case of (infinity,n)-categories is also…
By a 2-ring we mean a groupoid with a structure analogous to that of a ring, up to coherent isomorphisms. Two different notions of 2-ring appear in the literature: the notion of {\em Ann-category}, due to Quang, and the notion of {\em…
We define a bicategory in which the 0-cells are the entwinings over variable rings. The 1-cells are triples of a bimodule and two maps of bimodules which satisfy an additional hexagon, two pentagons and two (co)unit triangles; and the…
The purpose of this article is to present ideas towards obtaining a model category structure on the category of small strict n-categories, generalizing the one obtained by Thomason on ordinary categories. Following ideas of Grothendieck and…
