In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…
Bimonoidal categories are categorical analogues of rings without additive inverses. They have been actively studied in category theory, homotopy theory, and algebraic $K$-theory since around 1970. There is an abundance of new applications…
The co-Lie structures compatible with the osp(2|2) Lie super algebra structure are investigated and found to be all of coboundary type. The corresponding classical r-matrices are classified into several disjoint families. The osp(1|2)+u(1)…
We realize the Temperley-Lieb algebra by analogues of Soergel bimodules. The key point is that the monoidal structure is not given by a usual tensor product but by a slightly more complicated operation.
We offer a solution to the long-standing problem of group completing within the context of rig categories (also known as bimonoidal categories). Given a rig category R we construct a natural additive group completion R' that retains the…
We show that the canonical equivalences of categories between 2-dimensional (unoriented) topological quantum field theories valued in a symmetric monoidal category and (extended) commutative Frobenius algebras in that symmetric monoidal…
Liftable pairs of adjoint functors between braided monoidal categories in the sense of \cite{GV-OnTheDuality} provide auto-adjunctions between the associated categories of bialgebras. Motivated by finding interesting examples of such pairs,…
Lie bialgebra structures are reviewed and investigated in terms of the double Lie algebra, of Manin- and Gau{\ss}-decompositions. The standard R-matrix in a Manin decomposition then gives rise to several Poisson structures on the…
We present a new method, involving monads and comonads from category theory, to help establish a certain type of equivalence of subcategories. As a case study we consider the category of topological gradings of $C^*$-algebras over a fixed…
We extend the arithmetic product of species of structures and symmetric sequences studied by Maia and Mendez and by Dwyer and Hess to coloured symmetric sequences and show that it determines a normal oplax monoidal structure on the…
A duoidal category is a category equipped with two monoidal structures in which one is (op)lax monoidal with respect to the other. In this paper we introduce duoidal $\infty$-categories which are counterparts of duoidal categories in the…
We show that, with some technical conditions, an abelian category can be embedded into the category of bimodules over a ring. The case of semisimple rigid monoidal categories is studied in more detail.
The main source of inspiration for the present paper is the work of R. Rosebrugh and R.J. Wood on constructive complete distributive lattices where the authors employ elegantly the concepts of adjunction and module in their study of ordered…
We prove a coherence theorem for braided monoidal bicategories and relate it to the coherence theorem for monoidal bicategories. We show how coherence for these structures can be interpretted topologically using up-to-homotopy operad…
We classify in this paper Poisson structures on modules over semisimple Lie algebras arising from classical r-matrices. We then study their quantizations and the relation to classical invariant theory.
We give a conceptual treatment of the notion of joints, marginals, and independence in the setting of categorical probability. This is achieved by endowing the usual probability monads (like the Giry monad) with a monoidal and an opmonoidal…
We study the biclosedness of the monoidal categories of modules and comodules over a (left or right) Hopf algebroid, along with the bimodule category centres of the respective opposite categories and a corresponding categorical equivalence…
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…
We show that the categories of directed and undirected reflexive graphs carry exactly two (up to isomorphism) biclosed monoidal structures.
We introduce simple models for associative algebras and bimodules in the context of non-symmetric $\infty$-operads, and use these to construct an $(\infty,2)$-category of associative algebras, bimodules, and bimodule homomorphisms in a…
