Let $\mathcal{M}$ be an $n$-cluster tilting subcategory of ${\rm mod}\mbox{-}\Lambda$, where $\Lambda$ is an artin algebra. Let $\mathcal{S}(\mathcal{M})$ denotes the full subcategory of $\mathcal{S}(\Lambda)$, the submodule category of…
The notion of a duality between two derived functors as well as an extension theorem for derived functors to larger categories in which they need not be defined is introduced. These ideas are then applied to extend and study the coext…
We prove a number of results of the following common flavor: for a category $\mathcal{C}$ of topological or uniform spaces with all manner of other properties of common interest (separation / completeness / compactness axioms), a group (or…
We introduce a new categorical framework for studying derived functors, and in particular for comparing composites of left and right derived functors. Our central observation is that model categories are the objects of a double category…
Exponentiable functors between quantaloid-enriched categories are characterized in elementary terms. The proof goes as follows: the elementary conditions on a given functor translate into existence statements for certain adjoints that obey…
We present a method of constructing monoidal, braided monoidal, and symmetric monoidal bicategories from corresponding types of monoidal double categories that satisfy a lifting condition. Many important monoidal bicategories arise…
Modular functors are traditionally defined as systems of projective representations of mapping class groups of surfaces that are compatible with gluing. They can formally be described as modular algebras over central extensions of the…
We study lax functors between bicategories as a generalized concept of monads and describe generalized notions and theorems of formal monad theory for lax functors. Our first approach is to use the 2-monad whose lax algebras are lax…
We develop the compositional theory of active inference by introducing activity, functorially relating statistical games to the dynamical systems which play them, using the new notion of approximate inference doctrine. In order to exhibit…
Type classes in Haskell are used to implement ad-hoc polymorphism, i.e. a way to ensure both to the programmer and the compiler that a set of functions are defined for a specific data type. All instances of such type classes are expected to…
Given an $\infty$-category $C$ equipped with suitable wide subcategories $I, P \subset E\subset C$, we show that the $(\infty,2)$-category $\text{S}{\scriptstyle\text{PAN}}_2(C,E)_{P,I}$ of higher (or iterated) spans defined by Haugseng has…
Graduated locally finitely presentable categories are introduced, examples include categories of sets, vector spaces, posets, presheaves and Boolean algebras. A finitary functor between graduated locally finitely presentable categories is…
The analogy between Yetter's deformation theory form (lax) monoidal functors and Gerstenahaber's deformation theory for associative algebras is solidified by shown that under reasonable conditions the category of functors with an action of…
For a semisimple multiring category with left duals, we prove that the unit object is simple if and only if the tensor functors by any non-zero algebra are separable (resp. faithful, resp. Maschke, resp. dual Maschke, resp. conservative).…
We extend Goodwillie's classification of finitary linear functors to arbitrary small functors. That is we show that every small linear simplicial functor from spectra to simplicial sets is weakly equivalent to a filtered colimit of…
We show that the category of $n$-excisive functors from the $\infty$-category of spectra to a target stable $\infty$-category $\mathbf{E}$ is equivalent to the category of $\mathbf{E}$-valued Mackey functors on an indexing category built…
We propose a new description of Endofunctors of Module Categories, based upon a combinatorial category comprising finite sets and so-called mazes. Polynomial and numerical functors both find a natural interpretation in this frame-work.…
We introduce Hopf polyads in order to unify Hopf monads and group actions on monoidal categories. A polyad is a lax functor from a small category (its source) to the bicategory of categories, and a Hopf polyad is a comonoidal polyad whose…
The coefficient categories of six functor formalisms are often locally rigid, and when this is the case, the exceptional pushforward and pullback adjunctions may be defined formally. In this short note it is shown that for f a proper map…
Fix a monoidal category C. The 2-category of monads in the 2-category of C-actegories, colax C-equivarant functors, and C-equivariant natural transformations of colax functors, may be recast in terms of pairs consisting of a usual monad and…
