We provide a calculus of mates for functors to the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-categories and extend Lurie's unstraightening equivalences to show that (op)lax natural transformations correspond to maps of (co)cartesian fibrations that do…

In the first part of this paper we study fibrations of $(\infty,2)$-categories. We give a simple characterization of such fibrations in terms of a certain square being a pullback, and apply this to show that in some cases…

We use the basic expected properties of the Gray tensor product of $(\infty,2)$-categories to study (co)lax natural transformations. Using results of Riehl-Verity and Zaganidis we identify lax transformations between adjunctions and monads…

We show that any functor between $\infty$-categories can be straightened. More precisely, we show that for any $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$, there is an equivalence between the $\infty$-category $(\mathrm{Cat}_{\infty})_{/\mathcal{C}}$…

We give another proof of the fact that there is a dual equivalence between the $\infty$-category of monoidal $\infty$-categories with left adjoint oplax monoidal functors and that with right adjoint lax monoidal functors by constructing a…

We define and discuss lax and weighted colimits of diagrams in $\infty$-categories and show that the coCartesian fibration associated to a functor is given by its lax colimit. A key ingredient, of independent interest, is a simple…

For every adjunction of stable $\infty$-categories -- or more generally, in any locally stable $(\infty,2)$-category -- we give a simple procedure for inverting the twist and cotwist functors associated to this adjunction. As a consequence,…

We study four types of (co)cartesian fibrations of $\infty$-bicategories over a given base $\mathcal{B}$, and prove that they encode the four variance flavors of $\mathcal{B}$-indexed diagrams of $\infty$-categories. We then use this…

We generalize to dimension 2 the well-known fact that a colimit in a 1-dimensional slice is precisely the map from the colimit of the domains of the diagram that is induced by the universal property. For this, we find the need to reduce…

We give a direct proof of the fact that Lurie's Unstraightening functor induces an equivalence between the strict $(\infty,2)$-category of indexed quasi-categories and the strict $(\infty,2)$-category of fibered quasi-categories over any…

In this work, we study the notion of cofinal functor of $\infty$-bicategories with respect to the theory of partially lax colimits. The main result of this paper is a characterization of cofinal functors of $\infty$-bicategories via…

We provide a straightening-unstraightening adjunction for $\infty$-operads in Lurie's formalism, and show it establishes an equivalence between the $\infty$-category of operadic left fibrations over an $\infty$-operad $\mathcal{O}^\otimes$…

In this work, we study oplax normalised functors of $(\infty,2)$-categories. Our main theorem is a comparison between the notion of oplax normalised functor of scaled simplicial sets due to Gagna-Harpaz-Lanari and the corresponding notion…

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…

For a small simplicial category A, we prove that the homotopy colimit functor from the category of simplicial diagrams on A to the category of simplicial sets over the homotopy-coherent nerve of A provides a left Quillen equivalence between…

In this work, we investigate an effective method for showing that functors between categories are left adjoints. The method applies to a large class of categories, namely locally finitely presentable categories, which are ubiquitous in…
