A symmetric tensor category $\mathcal D$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ is incompressible if every tensor functor out of $\mathcal D$ is an embedding. E.g., the categories $Vec$ and $sVec$ of (super)vector spaces are incompressible.…

Using tensor categories, we present new constructions of several of the exceptional simple Lie superalgebras with integer Cartan matrix in characteristic $p = 3$ and $p = 5$ from the complete classification of modular Lie superalgebras with…

Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra with a category $\mathcal{C}$ of (generalized) modules that has vertex tensor category structure, and thus braided tensor category structure, and let $A$ be a vertex operator (super)algebra extension of…

We prove that any faithful Frobenius functor between abelian categories preserves the Gorenstein projective dimension of objects. Consequently, it preserves and reflects Gorenstein projective objects. We give conditions on when a Frobenius…

We develop some foundations of commutative algebra, with a view towards algebraic geometry, in symmetric tensor categories. Most results establish analogues of classical theorems, in tensor categories which admit a tensor functor to some…

In this paper, we state and prove precise theorems on the classification of the category of (braided) categorical groups and their (braided) monoidal functors, and some applications obtained from the basic studies on monoidal functors…

Expansions of abelian categories are introduced. These are certain functors between abelian categories and provide a tool for induction/reduction arguments. Expansions arise naturally in the study of coherent sheaves on weighted projective…

In this paper we generalize Tannakian formalism to fiber functors over general tensor categories. We will show that (under some technical conditions) if the fiber functor has a section, then the source category is equivalent to the category…

We initiate a study of tensor ideals in linear rigid monoidal categories that are kernels of linear monoidal functors to abelian monoidal categories. We develop general methods and apply them to the category of tilting modules over quantum…

We present here definitions and constructions basic for the theory of monoidal and tensor categories. We provide references to the original sources, whenever possible. Group-theoretical categories are used as examples

We consider a pivotal monoidal functor whose domain is a modular tensor category (MTC). We show that the trace of such a functor naturally extends to a representation of the corresponding tube category. As irreducible representations of the…

These notes give an exposition of Deligne's theorem on the existense of super fiber functor.

We give a presentation of Feynman categories from a representation--theoretical viewpoint. Feynman categories are a special type of monoidal categories and their representations are monoidal functors. They can be viewed as a far reaching…

We assign functorially a $\mathbb{Z}$-lattice with semisimple Frobenius action to each abelian variety over $\mathbb{F}_p$. This establishes an equivalence of categories that describes abelian varieties over $\mathbb{F}_p$ avoiding…

We introduce some new symmetric tensor categories based on the combinatorics of trees: a discrete family $\mathcal{D}(n)$, for $n \ge 3$ an integer, and a continuous family $\mathcal{C}(t)$, for $t \ne 1$ a complex number. The construction…

Let $U:\mathcal{C}\rightarrow\mathcal{D}$ be a strong monoidal functor between abelian monoidal categories admitting a right adjoint $R$, such that $R$ is exact, faithful and the adjunction $U\dashv R$ is coHopf. Building on the work of…

As shown in a previous paper by the same authors, the theory of Galois functors provides a categorical framework for the characterisation of bimonads on any category as Hopf monads and also for the characterisation of opmonoidal monads on…

This paper studies Frobenius subalgebra posets in abelian monoidal categories and shows that, under general conditions--satisfied in all semisimple tensor categories over the complex field--they collapse to lattices through a rigidity…

We introduce the concept of Frobenius theory as a generalisation of Lawvere's functorial semantics approach to categorical universal algebra. Whereas the universe for models of Lawvere theories is the category of sets and functions, or more…

The aim of this paper is to generalize Grothendieck's theory of smooth functors in order to include within this framework the theory of fibered categories. We obtain in particular a new characterization of fibered categories.
