In this article we investigate which categorical structures of a category C are inherited by its arrow category. In particular, we show that a monoidal equivalence between two categories gives rise to a monoidal equivalence between their…

When formalizing mathematics in (generalized predicative) constructive type theories, or more practically in proof assistants such as Coq or Agda, one is often using setoids (types with explicit equivalence relations). In this note we…

We give a 3-categorical, purely formal argument explaining why on the category of Kleisli algebras for a lax monoidal monad, and dually on the category of Eilenberg-Moore algebras for an oplax monoidal monad, we always have a natural…

We relativise double categories of relations to stable orthogonal factorisation systems. Furthermore, we present the characterisation of the relative double categories of relations in two ways. The first utilises a generalised comprehension…

The recently introduced model of representations has been defined and motivated somewhat ex-nihilo. In this document, I will show that representations are related to a more ''classical'' model through a 2-adjunction. The target model is…

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…

We study dualities between Lie algebras and Lie coalgebras, and their respective (co)representations. To allow a study of dualities in an infinite-dimensional setting, we introduce the notions of Lie monads and Lie comonads, as special…

We develop the Morita theory of fusion 2-categories. In order to do so, we begin by proving that the relative tensor product of modules over a separable algebra in a fusion 2-category exists. We use this result to construct the Morita…

We introduce a new categorical framework for studying derived functors, and in particular for comparing composites of left and right derived functors. Our central observation is that model categories are the objects of a double category…

We study the monoidal closed category of symmetric multicategories, especially in relation with its cartesian structure and with sequential multicategories (whose arrows are sequences of concurrent arrows in a given category). Then we…

We develop a general theory of (extended) inner autoequivalences of objects of any 2-category, generalizing the theory of isotropy groups to the 2-categorical setting. We show how dense subcategories let one compute isotropy in the presence…

In the previous papers we found a direct method to confirm, for any square matrix, if it is associated to any categories or not. According to this method, the matrix 2 (all coefficients are 2) of a given order, admits associated categories.…

We give a detailed account of the theory of enrichment over a bicategory and show that it establishes a two-fold generalization of enrichment over both quantaloids and monoidal categories. We define complete B-categories, a generalization…

In this article we describe properties of the 2-functor from the 2-category of comonads to the 2-category of functors that sends a comonad to its forgetful functor. This allows us to describe contexts where algebras over a monad are…

Monadic second order logic is the expansion of first order logic by quantifiers ranging over unary relations. We study the shared monadic second order theory of finite linear orders, i.e. the pseudofinite monadic second order theory of…

Monads are of interest both in semantics and in higher dimensional algebra. It turns out that the idea behind usual notion finitary monads (whose values on all sets can be computed from their values on finite sets) extends to a more general…

In this note we show that the known relation between double groupoids and matched pairs of groups may be extended, or seems to extend, to the triple case. The references give some other occurrences of double groupoids.

Cheng, Gurski, and Riehl constructed a cyclic double multicategory of multivariable adjunctions. We show that the same information is carried by a double polycategory, in which opposite categories are polycategorical duals. Moreover, this…

We construct a finitary additive 2-category whose Grothendieck ring is isomorphic to the semigroup algebra of the monoid of order-decreasing and order-preserving transformations of a finite chain.

We introduce a general construction on 2-monads. We develop background on maps of 2-monads, their left semi-algebras, and colimits in 2-category. Then, we introduce the construction of a colimit induced by a map of 2-monads, show that we…
