We consider categories of Soergel bimodules for the symmetric groups S_n in their gl(n)-realizations for all n and assemble them into a locally linear monoidal bicategory. Chain complexes of Soergel bimodules likewise form a locally…

This paper develops a harmonic Galois theory for finite graphs, thereby classifying harmonic branched $G$-covers of a fixed base $X$ in terms of homomorphisms from a suitable fundamental group of $X$ together with $G$-inertia structures on…

We develop a theory of adjunctions in semigroup categories, i.e. monoidal categories without a unit object. We show that a rigid semigroup category is promonoidal, and thus one can naturally adjoin a unit object to it. This extends the…

Without the axiom of choice, the free exact completion of the category of sets (i.e. the category of setoids) may not be complete or cocomplete. We will show that nevertheless, it can be enhanced to a derivator: the formal structure of…

We study the computational complexity of several problems connected with finding a maximal distance-$k$ matching of minimum cardinality or minimum weight in a given graph. We introduce the class of $k$-equimatchable graphs which is an edge…

We present a general homotopical analysis of structured diagram spaces and discuss the relation to symmetric spectra. The main motivating examples are the I-spaces, which are diagrams indexed by finite sets and injections, and J-spaces,…

We use an entropy based method to study two graph maximization problems. We upper bound the number of matchings of fixed size $\ell$ in a $d$-regular graph on $N$ vertices. For $\frac{2\ell}{N}$ bounded away from 0 and 1, the logarithm of…

This work introduces a general theory of universal pseudomorphisms and develops their connection to diagrammatic coherence. The main results give hypotheses under which pseudomorphism coherence is equivalent to the coherence theory of…

We follow the same technics we used before in \cite{AZ} of extending knot Floer homology to embedded graphs in a 3-manifold, by using the Kauffman topological invariant of embedded graphs by associating family of links and knots to a such…

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…

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…

We give a presentation of the $n$-dimensional oriented cobordism category $\text{Cob}_n$ with generators corresponding to diffeomorphisms and surgeries along framed spheres, and a complete set of relations. Hence, given a functor $F$ from…

We explain two related constructions on the data of two monoidal symmetric closed categories $\mathscr{A}$ and $\mathscr{E}$ and monoidal functors $F: \mathscr{E}\to \mathscr{A}$ and $G: \mathscr{A}\to \mathscr{E}$. In a first part, we…

We study symplectic properties of monodromy map for second order linear equation with meromorphic potential having only simple poles on a Riemann surface. We show that the canonical symplectic structure on the cotangent bundle $T^*M_{g,n}$…

Let FI denote the category whose objects are the sets $[n] = \{1,\ldots, n\}$, and whose morphisms are injections. We study functors from the category FI into the category of sets. We write $\mathfrak{S}_n$ for the symmetric group on $[n]$.…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a resolving and contravariantly finite subcategory of $\rm{mod}\mbox{-}\Lambda$, the category of finitely generated right $\Lambda$-modules. We associate to $\mathcal{X}$ the subcategory…

Let V be a variety of algebras of some type. An interest to describing automorphisms of the category C of finitely generated free V-algebras was inspired in connection with development of universal algebraic geometry founded by B. Plotkin.…

Given a symmetric monoidal $\infty$-category $\mathscr{E}$, compatible with finite colimits, we show that the functor sending a simplicial object in $\mathscr{E}$ to its skeletal filtration is canonically lax symmetric monoidal. This…

In this contribution we investigate several extensions of the powerset that comprise arbitrarily nested subsets, and call them superpower set. This allows the definition of graphs with possibly infinitely nested nodes. additionally we…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a small category, and suppose that we are given two (non-full) subcategories $\mathcal{S}^{sm}$ and $\mathcal{S}^{cl}$ that generate all morphisms of $\mathcal{S}$ under composition in the same way as morphisms of…
