Consider a diagram of quasi-categories that admit and functors that preserve limits or colimits of a fixed shape. We show that any weighted limit whose weight is a projective cofibrant simplicial functor is again a quasi-category admitting…

This paper extends the theory of universal measuring comonoids to modules and comodules in braided monoidal categories. We generalise the universal measuring comodule Q(M,N), originally introduced for modules over k-algebras when k is a…

We consider the equivalence of Lawvere theories and finitary monads on Set from the perspective of Endf(Set)-enriched category theory, where Endf(Set) is the category of finitary endofunctors of Set. We identify finitary monads with…

The importance of accessible categories has been widely recognized; they can be described as those freely generated in some precise sense by a small set of objects and, because of that, satisfy many good properties. More specifically…

Building on the notion of normed category as suggested by Lawvere, we introduce notions of Cauchy convergence and cocompleteness which differ from proposals in previous works. Key to our approach is to treat them consequentially as…

Monoidal categories enriched in a braided monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ are classified by braided oplax monoidal functors from $\mathcal{V}$ to the Drinfeld centers of ordinary monoidal categories. In this article, we prove that this…

We develop a theory of categories which are simultaneously (1) indexed over a base category S with finite products, and (2) enriched over an S-indexed monoidal category V. This includes classical enriched categories, indexed and fibered…

Sifted colimits (those that commute with finite products in sets) play a major role in categorical universal algebra. For example, varieties of (many-sorted) algebras are precisely the free cocompletions under sifted colimits of…

We provide a definition of enrichment that applies to a wide variety of categorical structures, generalizing Leinster's theory of enriched $T$-multicategories. As a sample of newly enrichable structures, we describe in detail the examples…

We define and study opfibrations of $V$-enriched categories when $V$ is an extensive monoidal category whose unit is terminal and connected. This includes sets, simplicial sets, categories, or any locally cartesian closed category with…

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of some of the foundational properties of categories enriched over quantaloids, along with several new results. We demonstrate that the category whose objects are quantaloid-enriched categories…

Homotopy limits and colimits are homotopical replacements for the usual limits and colimits of category theory, which can be approached either using classical explicit constructions or the modern abstract machinery of derived functors. Our…

A pseudomonad on a $2$-category whose underlying endomorphism is a $2$-functor can be seen as a diagram $\mathbf{Psmnd} \rightarrow \mathbf{Gray}$ for which weighted limits and colimits can be considered. The $2$-category of pseudoalgebras,…

Whereas formal category theory is classically considered within a $2$-category, in this paper a double-dimensional approach is taken. More precisely we develop such theory within the setting of augmented virtual double categories, a notion…

We develop a general framework for studying signatures, presentations, and algebraic colimits of enriched monads for a subcategory of arities, even when the base of enrichment $\mathcal{V}$ is not locally presentable. When $\mathcal{V}$…

In this work, we establish certain enrichments of dual algebraic structures in the setting of monoidal double categories. In more detail, we obtain a tensored and cotensored enrichment of monads in comonads, as well as a tensored and…

We define the notion of an additive model category, and we prove that any additive, stable, combinatorial model category has a natural enrichment over symmetric spectra based on simplicial abelian groups. As a consequence, every object in…

We introduce an enriched notion of a coalgebra over an operad P in a symmetric monoidal V-category C. When C is semicartesian and P is unital, we construct a V-endofunctor on C associated to P and give conditions under which it is a…

We verify that Kelly's constructions of the internal Hom for enriched categories extends naturally to lax functors taking their values in a symmetric monoidal category. Our motivation is to set up a `calculus on lax functors' that will host…
