We address the homotopy theory of 2-crossed modules of commutative algebras, which are equivalent to simplicial commutative algebras with Moore complex of length two. In particular, we construct for maps of 2-crossed modules a homotopy…

In this paper, we develop 2-dimensional algebraic theory which closely follows the classical theory of modules. The main results are giving definitions of 2-module and the representation of 2-ring. Moreover, for a 2-ring $\cR$, we prove…

We prove a generalised interchange equality for 3-cells in a Gray-category, i.e. we show that it still holds modulo the unique isomorphism given by the Gray-categorical pasting theorem of Di Vittorio. This significantly simplifies many…

A general procedure is presented which associates to a finite crossed module a premodular category, generalizing the representation categories of a finite group and of its double, and the extent to which the resulting category fails to be…

Applying geometric methods of $2$-dimensional cell complex theory, we construct a Galois covering of a bimodule problem satisfying some structure, triangularity and finiteness conditions in order to describe the objects of finite…

In this paper we study equivariant crossed modules in its link with strict graded categorical groups. The resulting Schreier theory for equivariant group extensions of the type of an equivariant crossed module generalizes both the theory of…

We classify a class of complex representations of an arbitrary Coxeter group via characters of the integral homology of certain graphs. Such representations can be viewed as a generalization of the geometric representation and correspond to…

A Cayley map is a 2-cell embedding of a Cayley graph into an orientable surface with the same local orientation induced by a cyclic permutation of generators at each vertex. In this paper, we provide classifications of prime-valent regular…

In this paper we study the cohomology of (strict) Lie 2-groups. We obtain an explicit Bott-Shulman type map in the case of a Lie 2-group corresponding to the crossed module $A\to 1$. The cohomology of the Lie 2-groups corresponding to the…

This paper links the third symmetric cohomology (introduced by Staic and Zarelua ) to crossed modules with certain properties. The equivalent result in the language of 2-groups states that an extension of 2-groups corresponds to an element…

We prove that every simple transitive $2$-representation of the fiat $2$-category of Soergel bimodules (over the coinvariant algebra) in type $B_2$ is equivalent to a cell $2$-representation. We also describe some general properties of the…

In this paper, we give a characterization of the normal subgroups of index $2^{s}(2n+1),\ s\in\{1,2\},\ n\in \mathbb{N}$ and of the subgroups of index three of the group representation of the Cayley tree.

For groups $G$ that can be generated by an involution and an element of odd prime order, this paper gives a sufficient condition for a certain Cayley graph of $G$ to be a graphical regular representation (GRR), that is, for the Cayley graph…

We give an explicit handy (and cocycle-free) description of the groupoid of weak maps between two crossed-modules in terms of certain digrams of groups which we we call a {\em butterflies}. We define composition of butterflies and this way…

The classical Cayley transform is a birational map between a quadratic matrix group and its Lie algebra, which was first discovered by Cayley in 1846. Because of its essential role in both pure and applied mathematics, the classical Cayley…

A Cayley graph over a group $G$ is said to be central if its connection set is a normal subset of $G$. We prove that every central Cayley graph over a simple group $G$ has at most two pairwise nonequivalent Cayley representations over $G$…

We give a detailed description of the structure of the actor 2-crossed module related to the automorphisms of a crossed module of groupoids. This generalises work of Brown and Gilbert for the case of crossed modules of groups, and part of…

In the theory of crossed modules, considering arbitrary self-actions instead of conjugation allows for the extension of the concept of crossed modules and thus the notion of generalized crossed module emerges. In this paper we give a…

The established equivalence between 2-crossed modules and Gray 3-groups [M. Sarikaya and E. Ulualan, 2024] serves as a benchmark for higher-dimensional algebraic models. However, to the best of our knowledge, the established definitions of…

We define 2-crossed module bundle 2-gerbes related to general Lie 2-crossed modules and discuss their properties. A 2-crossed module bundle 2-gerbe over a manifold is defined in terms of a so called 2-crossed module bundle gerbe, which is a…
