We introduce a generalization of monads, called relative monads, allowing for underlying functors between different categories. Examples include finite-dimensional vector spaces, untyped and typed lambda-calculus syntax and indexed…
We study extended associative semigroups (briefly, EAS), an algebraic structure used to define generalizations of the operad of associative algebras, and the subclass of commutative extended diassociative semigroups (briefly, CEDS), which…
In this paper, we propose a method for constructing a colored $(d+1)$-operad $\mathbf{seq}_d$ in $\mathrm{Sets}$, in the sense of Batanin [Ba1,2], whose category of colors (=the category of unary operations) is the category $\Theta_d$, dual…
In this paper, we use the language of operads to study open dynamical systems. More specifically, we study the algebraic nature of assembling complex dynamical systems from an interconnection of simpler ones. The syntactic architecture of…
We define a notion of $\infty$-properads that generalises $\infty$-operads by allowing operations with multiple outputs. Specializing to the case where each operation has a single output provides a simple new perspective on…
We construct generalized multicategories associated to an arbitrary operad in Cat that is $\Sigma$-free. The construction generalizes the passage to symmetric multicategories from permutative categories, which is the case when the operad is…
In [KW14], the new concept of Feynman categories was introduced to simplify the discussion of operad--like objects. In this present paper, we demonstrate the usefulness of this approach, by introducing the concept of decorated Feynman…
The operation of transforming one spanning tree into another by replacing an edge has been considered widely, both for general and planar straight-line graphs. For the latter, several variants have been studied (e.g., edge slides and edge…
The description of algebraic structure of n-fold loop spaces can be done either using the formalism of topological operads, or using variations of Segal's $\Gamma$-spaces. The formalism of topological operads generalises well to different…
We show that Verdier duality for certain sheaves on the moduli spaces of graphs associated to Koszul operads corresponds to Koszul duality of operads. This in particular gives a conceptual explanation of the appearance of graph cohomology…
We show that various categories of trees can be modeled by Grothendieck constructions on categories of trees with a fixed set of leaves. We prove this result for the dendroidal category $\Omega$, the category $\Omega^G$ of trees with a…
We define several differential graded operads, some of them being related to families of polytopes : simplices and permutohedra. We also obtain a presentation by generators and relations of the operad K on associahedra introduced in a…
The category of (colored) props is an enhancement of the category of colored operads, and thus of the category of small categories. The titular category has nice formal properties: it is bicomplete and is a symmetric monoidal category, with…
We extend the W-construction of Boardman and Vogt to operads of an arbitrary monoidal model category with suitable interval, and show that it provides a cofibrant resolution for well-pointed sigma-cofibrant operads. The standard simplicial…
We introduce, by adopting the point of view and the tools offered by the theory of operads, a generalization on a nonnegative integer parameter $\gamma$ of diassociative algebras of Loday, called $\gamma$-pluriassociative algebras. By…
In category theory circles it is well-known that the Schreier theory of group extensions can be understood in terms of the Grothendieck construction on indexed categories. However, it is seldom discussed how this relates to extensions of…
For $\Lambda$ the category of free opetopic algebras, we construct a model structure \emph{\`a la Cisinski} on the category of presheaves over $\Lambda$, and show that is is equivalent to opetopic complete Segal spaces. This generalizes the…
Let $A$ be an algebra over an operad in a cocomplete closed symmetric monoidal category. We study the category of $A$-modules. We define certain symmetric product functors of such modules generalising the tensor product of modules over…
Liftable pairs of adjoint functors between braided monoidal categories in the sense of \cite{GV-OnTheDuality} provide auto-adjunctions between the associated categories of bialgebras. Motivated by finding interesting examples of such pairs,…
We introduce an operad which acts on the Gerstenhaber-Schack complex of a prestack as defined by Dinh Van and Lowen, and which in particular allows us to endow this complex with an underlying $L_{\infty}$-structure. We make use of the…
