This article is the continuation of [LS12]. We use categories of matrix factorizations to define a morphism of rings (= a Landau-Ginzburg motivic measure) from the (motivic) Grothendieck ring of varieties over $\mathbb{A}^1$ to the…
We present exact solutions to Vasiliev's bosonic higher spin gravity equations in four dimensions with positive and negative cosmological constant that admit an interpretation in terms of domain walls, quasi-instantons and…
After two papers on weak cubical categories and {\it collarable} cospans, respectively, we put things together and construct a {\it weak} cubical category of cubical {\it collared} cospans of topological spaces. We also build a second…
We categorify various Fock space representations on the algebra of symmetric functions via the category of polynomial functors. In a prequel, we used polynomial functors to categorify the Fock space representations of type A affine Lie…
Kronheimer and Mrowka used gauge theory to define a functor $J^\sharp$ from a category of webs in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to the category of finite-dimensional vector spaces over the field of two elements. They also suggested a possible…
This paper is part of a series of articles in which we reproduce the statements regarding the abstract six-functor formalism developed by Liu-Zheng. In this paper, we prove a theorem, which is an $\infty$-categorical version for defining…
Let $R$ be a commutative unital ring. We construct a category $\mathcal{C}_R$ of fractions $X/G$, where $G$ is a finite group and $X$ is a finite $G$-set, and with morphisms given by $R$-linear combinations of spans of bisets. This category…
We define a hierarchy functor from the exact symplectic cobordism category to a totally ordered set from a $BL_\infty$ (Bi-Lie) formalism of the rational symplectic field theory (RSFT). The hierarchy functor consists of three levels of…
The category of small covariant functors from simplicial sets to simplicial sets supports the projective model structure. In this paper we construct various localizations of the projective model structure and also give a variant for…
We develop vertex and factorisation algebra analogues of the theory of quasitriangular bialgebras. Analogously to the classical theory, we prove their categories of representations are controlled by spectral R-matrices. In the vertex…
We extend Bezrukavnikov and Finkelberg's description of the G(\C[[t]])-equivariant derived category on the affine Grassmannian to the twisted setting of Finkelberg and Lysenko. Our description is in terms of coherent sheaves on the twisted…
In this paper, we present an explicit cyclic minimal $A_\infty$ model for the category of matrix factorizations $\MF(W)$ of an isolated hypersurface singularity. The key observation is to use Kontsevich's deformation quantization technique.…
We study the minimal models associated to $\mathfrak{osp}(1 \vert 2)$, otherwise known as the fractional-level Wess-Zumino-Witten models of $\mathfrak{osp}(1 \vert 2)$. Since these minimal models are extensions of the tensor product of…
We define an extension of the affine Brauer algebra, the type B/C affine Brauer algebra. This new algebra contains the hyperoctahedral group and it naturally acts on $END_K(X \otimes V^{\otimes k})$ for Orthogonal and Symplectic groups.…
Associated to each small category $C$, there is a category of $C$-shaped diagrams of simplicial sets and an $\infty$-category of $NC$-shaped homotopy coherent diagrams of spaces. We present a functor which exhibits the latter as the…
We construct an iterative method for factorising small strict n-categories into a unique (up to isomorphism) collection of small 1- categories. Following this we develop the theory to include a large class of $\infty$-categories. We use…
Recent work of Biedermann and R\"ondigs has translated Goodwillie's calculus of functors into the language of model categories. Their work focuses on symmetric multilinear functors and the derivative appears only briefly. In this paper we…
We concretely construct a 2-categorically extended TQFT that extends the Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFT to cobordisms with corners. The source category will be a well chosen 2-category of decorated cobordisms with corners and the target bicategory…
We propose a categorification of the Chern character that refines earlier work of To\"en and Vezzosi and of Ganter and Kapranov. If X is an algebraic stack, our categorified Chern character is a symmetric monoidal functor from a category of…
By studying Rozansky-Witten theory with non-compact target spaces we find new connections with knot invariants whose physical interpretation was not known. This opens up several new avenues, which include a new formulation of $q$-series…
