A compact closed bicategory is a symmetric monoidal bicategory where every object is equipped with a weak dual. The unit and counit satisfy the usual "zig-zag" identities of a compact closed category only up to natural isomorphism, and the…

Given a symmetric monoidal $(\infty,n)$-category $\mathcal{C}$ and a space $X$, we address the problem of explicitly describing the symmetric monoidal $(\infty,n)$-category freely obtained from $\mathcal{C}$ by adjoining $X$ new…

In previous work we proved that, for categories of free finite-dimensional modules over a commutative semiring, linear compact-closed symmetric monoidal structure is a property, rather than a structure. That is, if there is such a…

Considering the monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$ obtained as modules over a Hopf algebra $H$ in a rigid braided category $\mathcal{B}$, we prove decomposition results for the Hochschild and cyclic homology categories $HH(\mathcal{C})$ and…

In this paper we study compact closed categories within the context of homotopical algebra. We construct two new model category structures by localizing two (Quillen equivalent) model categories of symmetric monoidal categories with the…

Let $\lambda_K:\bbR^2\rightarrow\{0,1,\ldots\}\cup\{\infty\}$ be the lambda function of a planar comapctum $K$, as defined in MR4488162. It is known that a planar continuum is locally connected if and only if its lambda function vanishes…

We construct a compactly generated and closed symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category $\mathtt{NSp'}$ and show that $\mathtt{hNSp'}^{op}$ contains the suspension stable homotopy category of separable $C^*$-algebras $\mathtt{\Sigma…

We show how to construct a Gamma-bicategory from a symmetric monoidal bicategory, and use that to show that the classifying space is an infinite loop space upon group completion. We also show a way to relate this construction to the classic…

The goal of this paper is to associate functorially to every symmetric monoidal additive category $\mathbf{A}$ with a strict $G$-action a lax symmetric monoidal functor $\mathbf{V}_{\mathbf{A}}^{G}:G\mathbf{BornCoarse}\to…

Given any modular category $\mathcal{C}$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, we extract a sequence $(M_g)_{g\geq 0}$ of $\mathcal{C}$-bimodules. We show that the Hochschild chain complex $CH(\mathcal{C};M_g)$ of $\mathcal{C}$ with…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a category with finite colimits, writing its coproduct $+$, and let $(\mathcal D, \otimes)$ be a braided monoidal category. We describe a method of producing a symmetric monoidal category from a lax braided monoidal…

The main objective of this paper is to construct a symmetric monoidal closed model category of coherently commutative monoidal quasi-categories. We construct another model category structure whose fibrant objects are (essentially) those…

The goal of this paper is to prove coherence results with respect to relational graphs for monoidal monads and comonads, i.e. monads and comonads in a monoidal category such that the endofunctor of the monad or comonad is a monoidal functor…

Many monoidal-type objects are known to be classified by maps from the Catalan simplicial set $\mathbb{C}$ to various nerves of categories and higher categories. There are, for example, three different nerves of the 2-category of categories…

Applied category theory often studies symmetric monoidal categories (SMCs) whose morphisms represent open systems. These structures naturally accommodate complex wiring patterns, leveraging (co)monoidal structures for splitting and merging…

A symmetric monoidal category is a category equipped with an associative and commutative (binary) product and an object which is the unit for the product. In fact, those properties only hold up to natural isomorphisms which satisfy some…
