We provide a reference for basic categorial properties of the categories of (possibly non-unital) $\mathbb{C}$-linear $*$-categories or $C^{*}$-categories, and (not necessarily unit-preserving) functors. Generalizing the classical case of…

The small and large scale problem of various passive vector models with anisotropic forcing is considered by solving exactly the equation for the pair correlation function. Emphasis is placed in the phenomena of anomalous scaling and the…

Category theory has foundational importance because it provides conceptual lenses to characterize what is important in mathematics. Originally the main lenses were universal mapping properties and natural transformations. In recent decades,…

The classical Serre-Swan's theorem defines a bijective correspondence between vector bundles and finitely generated projective modules over the algebra of continuous functions on some compact Hausdorff topological space. We extend these…

In this paper we provide a detailed construction of an equivalence between the category of Lawvere theories and the category of relative monads on the obvious functor $Jf:F\rightarrow Sets$ where $F$ is the category with the set of objects…

We generalize the construction of tensor categories of endomorphisms of a type III factor $M$ associated with a $G$-kernel, from the case of a discrete group $G$ to that of a compact second countable group. Our approach is based on the…

The main result of this paper may be stated as a construction of "almost representations" for the canonical presheaves of object extensions of length n on the C-systems defined by locally cartesian closed universe categories with binary…

A fermion can be chiral or vectorlike with respect to a given symmetry, depending on its coupling to the corresponding gauge boson. Vectorlike fermions have a distinct property that their left-handed and right-handed components behave in…

The arising of central extensions is discussed in two contexts. At first classical counterparts of quantum anomalies (deserving being named as "classical anomalies") are associated with a peculiar subclass of the non-equivariant maps.…

For a group $G$ and a 4-cocycle $\pi\in Z^{4}(G,\mathbb{k}^{\times})$, a $\pi$-anomalous action of $G$ on a linear monoidal category $C$ is a linear monoidal 2-functor between 3-groups $3\text{-Gr}(G,\pi)\rightarrow \text{2-Aut}_\otimes(C)$…

We investigate gauge anomalies in the context of orbifold conformal field theories. Such anomalies manifest as failures of modular invariance in the constituents of the orbifold partition function. We review how this irregularity is…

We perform a comprehensive perturbative study of the operator spectrum in multi-scalar theories with hypercubic global symmetry. This includes working out symmetry representations and their corresponding tensor structures. These structures…

For a local field $F$ and an Artinian local coefficient ring $\Lambda$ with the same positive residue characteristic $p$ we define, for any $e\in{\mathbb N}$, a category ${\mathfrak C}^{(e)}(\Lambda)$ of ${\rm GL}_2(F)$-equivariant…

In the context of Covariant Quantum Mechanics for a spin particle, we classify the ``quantum vector fields'', i.e. the projectable Hermitian vector fields of a complex bundle of complex dimension 2 over spacetime. Indeed, we prove that the…

We show that every simple transitive $2$-representation of the $2$-category of projective functors for a certain quotient of the quadratic dual of the preprojective algebra associated with a tree is equivalent to a cell $2$-representation.

We study and relate categories of modules, comodules and contramodules over a representation of a small category taking values in (co)algebras, in a manner similar to modules over a ringed space. As a result, we obtain a categorical…

We study the theory of projective representations for a compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$, i.e. actions of $\mathbb{G}$ on $\mathcal{B}(H)$ for some Hilbert space $H$. We show that any such projective representation is inner, and is hence…

Adjoint functors and projectivization in representation theory of partially ordered sets are used to generalize the algorithms of differentiation by a maximal and by a minimal point. Conceptual explanations are given for the combinatorial…

Jacobi forms can be considered as vector valued modular forms, and Jacobi forms of critical weight correspond to vector valued modular forms of weight $\frac12$. Since the only modular forms of weight $\frac12$ on congruence subgroups of…
