We construct A-infinity functors between Fukaya categories associated to monotone Lagrangian correspondences between compact symplectic manifolds. We then show that the composition of A-infinity functors for correspondences is homotopic to…
Graduated locally finitely presentable categories are introduced, examples include categories of sets, vector spaces, posets, presheaves and Boolean algebras. A finitary functor between graduated locally finitely presentable categories is…
We introduce a notion of bimodule in the setting of enriched $\infty$-categories, and use this to construct a double $\infty$-category of enriched $\infty$-categories where the two kinds of 1-morphisms are functors and bimodules. We then…
We define the notion of exact completion with respect to an existential elementary doctrine. We observe that the forgetful functor from the 2-category exact categories to existential elementary doctrines has a left biadjoint that can be…
We consider the canonical pseudodistributive law between various free limit completion pseudomonads and the free coproduct completion pseudomonad. When the class of limits includes pullbacks, we show that this consideration leads to notions…
We give a definition of a coherent adjunction in a $4$-category consisting of a finite list of $k$-morphisms for $k\leq 4$, plus equations beetween $4$-morphisms. We prove that the restriction map from the space of coherent adjunctions in a…
Suppose we are given complex manifolds $X$ and $Y$ together with substacks $\mathcal{S}$ and $\mathcal{S}'$ of modules over algebras of formal deformation $\mathcal{A}$ on $X$ and $\mathcal{A}'$ on $Y$, respectively. Suppose also we are…
In this work we define formal grammars in terms of free monoidal categories, along with a functor from the category of formal grammars to the category of automata. Generalising from the Booleans to arbitrary semirings, we extend our…
In the theory of operads we consider functors of generalized symmetric powers defined by sums of coinvariant modules under actions of symmetric groups. One observes classically that the construction of symmetric functors provides an…
From every pair of adjoint functors it is possible to produce a (possibly trivial) equivalence of categories by restricting to the subcategories where the unit and counit are isomorphisms. If we do this for the adjunction between effect…
We investigate Frobenius pairs between categories of comodules over rather general corings. We particularize to the case of the adjoint pair of functors associated to a morphism of corings over different base rings, which leads to a…
A matrix algebra is constructed which consists of the necessary degrees of freedom for a finite approximation to the algebra of functions on the family of orthogonal Grassmannians of real dimension 2N, known as complex quadrics. These…
The goal of this paper is to develop a theory of join and slices for strict $\infty$-categories. To any pair of strict $\infty$-categories, we associate a third one that we call their join. This operation is compatible with the usual join…
We study duals for objects and adjoints for $k$-morphisms in $\operatorname{Alg}_n(\mathcal{S})$, an $(\infty,n+N)$-category that models a higher Morita category for $E_n$ algebra objects in a symmetric monoidal $(\infty,N)$-category…
Additive categories play a fundamental role in mathematics and related disciplines. Given an additive category equipped with a biadditive functor, one can construct its category of extensions, which encodes important structural information.…
In this article we raise some new questions about positive definite functions on free groups, and explain how these are related to more well-known questions. The article is intended as a survey of known results that also offers some new…
We provide a criterion for the existence of right approximations in cocomplete additive categories; it is a straightforward generalisation of a result due to El Bashir. This criterion is used to construct adjoint functors in homotopy…
We show that the level sets of automorphisms of free groups with respect to the Lipschitz metric are connected as subsets of Culler-Vogtmann space. In fact we prove our result in a more general setting of deformation spaces. As…
We construct generalized multicategories associated to an arbitrary operad in Cat that is $\Sigma$-free. The construction generalizes the passage to symmetric multicategories from permutative categories, which is the case when the operad is…
All components of complements of discriminant varieties of simple real function singularities are explicitly listed. New invariants of such components (for not necessarily simple singularities) are introduced. A combinatorial algorithm…
