If $\mu $ is a positive Borel measure on the interval $[0, 1)$ we let $\mathcal H_\mu $ be the Hankel matrix $\mathcal H_\mu =(\mu _{n, k})_{n,k\ge 0}$ with entries $\mu _{n, k}=\mu _{n+k}$, where, for $n\,=\,0, 1, 2, \dots $, $\mu_n$…

We interpret ontological models for finite-dimensional quantum theory as functors from the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces and bounded linear maps to the category of measurable spaces and Markov kernels. This uniformises…

We initiate the study of derived functors in the setting of extriangulated categories. By using coends, we adapt Yoneda's theory of higher extensions to this framework. We show that, when there are enough projectives or enough injectives,…

We develop theory and examples of monoidal functors on tensor categories in positive characteristic that generalise the Frobenius functor from \cite{Os, EOf, Tann}. The latter has proved to be a powerful tool in the ongoing classification…

In this paper, we give a method for relating the generalized category $\mathcal{O}$ defined by the author and collaborators to explicit finitely presented algebras, and apply this to quiver varieties. This allows us to describe…

Motivated by the challenge of defining twisted quantum field theories in the context of higher categories, we develop a general framework for lax and oplax transformations and their higher analogs between strong $(\infty, n)$-functors. We…

We develop a rigorous, equation-free category-theoretic foundation for fungal organisation. A fungal organism is formalised as a functor from a category $\Env$ of structured environmental states and admissible transformations to a category…

It is shown how double categories provide a direct abstract approach to coloured operads; namely, product-preserving normal lax functors from (Pb C)^op (the opposite of the double category of pullback squares in C) to Cat (the double…

There is a general phenomenon in algebra that numerous functors of homological significance admit characterization as derived limits of elementary functors defined over categories of free extensions. We demonstrate that upon restriction to…

This article is motivated by the need for better understanding of refined Riemann-Roch theorems and the behavior of the determinant of the cohomology. This poses a certain problem of functoriality and can be understood as that of giving…

An (additive) functor F from an additive category A to an additive category B is said to be objective, provided any morphism f in A with F(f) = 0 factors through an object K with F(K) = 0. In this paper we concentrate on triangle functors…

Let $E_1,\dots ,E_k$ and $E$ be natural vector bundles defined over the category $\Cal Mf_m^+$ of smooth oriented $m$--dimensional manifolds and orientation preserving local diffeomorphisms, with $m\geq 2$. Let $M$ be an object of $\Cal…

In this paper, we describe a general theory of modules over an algebra over an operad. We also study functors between categories of modules. Specializing to the operad E_d of little d-dimensional disks, we show that each (d-1)-manifold…

Semi-infinite forms on the moduli spaces of genus-zero Riemann surfaces with punctures and local coordinates are introduced. A partial operad for semi-infinite forms is constructed. Using semi-infinite forms and motivated by a partial…

The parabolic category $\mathcal O$ for affine ${\mathfrak{gl}}_N$ at level $-N-e$ admits a structure of a categorical representation of $\widetilde{\mathfrak{sl}}_e$ with respect to some endofunctors $E$ and $F$. This category contains a…

Given a rigid tensor-triangulated category and a vector space valued homological functor for which the K\"{u}nneth isomorphism holds, we construct a universal graded-Tannakian category through which the given homological functor factors. We…

This is the continuation of the study of differential graded (dg) vertex algebras previously defined by the authors. The goal of this paper is to construct a functor from the category of dg vertex Lie algebras to the category of dg vertex…

This is the first paper in a series that studies smooth relative Lie algebra homologies and cohomologies based on the theory of formal manifolds and formal Lie groups. In this paper, we lay the foundations for this study by introducing the…

This article summarises the theory of several bounded functional calculi for unbounded operators that have recently been discovered. The extend the Hille--Phillips calculus for (negative) generators $A$ of certain bounded $C_0$-semigroups,…

We describe a category of undirected graphs which comes equipped with a faithful functor into the category of (colored) modular operads. The associated singular functor from modular operads to presheaves is fully faithful, and its essential…
