We introduce notions of lax semiadditive and lax additive $(\infty,2)$-categories, categorifying the classical notions of semiadditive and additive 1-categories. To establish a well-behaved axiomatic framework, we develop a calculus of lax…

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…

There are several ways to construct omega-categories from combinatorial objects such as pasting schemes or parity complexes. We make these constructions into a functor on a category of chain complexes with additional structure, which we…

The center construction is not (classically) functorial. In this note, we specialize a universal construction of Jacob Lurie to the category of rings and upgrade the classical center to a lax functor. In particular, we find lax functors to…

We give a construction of triangulated categories as quotients of exact categories where the subclass of objects sent to zero is defined by a triple of functors. This includes the cases of homotopy and stable module categories. These…

The category of (colored) props is an enhancement of the category of colored operads, and thus of the category of small categories. The titular category has nice formal properties: it is bicomplete and is a symmetric monoidal category, with…

There is a free construction from multicategories to permutative categories, left adjoint to the endomorphism multicategory construction. The main result shows that these functors induce an equivalence of homotopy theories. This result…

We introduce a 3-dimensional categorical structure which we call intercategory. This is a kind of weak triple category with three kinds of arrows, three kinds of 2-dimensional cells and one kind of 3-dimensional cells. In one dimension, the…

The Leinster matrix corresponding to a finite category has entries counting the number of morphisms between objects. A first question is to know which positive integer matrices come from at least one finite category. Here, that question…

For each recollement of triangulated categories, there is an epivalence between the middle category and the comma category associated to a triangle functor from the category on the right to the category on the left. For a morphic…

Originally introduced in the context of the algebraic approach to term graph rewriting, the notion of gs-monoidal category has surfaced a few times under different monikers in the last decades. They can be thought of as symmetric monoidal…

This text is dedicated to the development of the theory of $(\infty,\omega)$-categories. We present generalizations of standard results from category theory, such as the lax Grothendieck construction, the Yoneda lemma, lax (co)limits and…

We study limits in 2-categories whose objects are categories with extra structure and whose morphisms are functors preserving the structure only up to a coherent comparison map, which may or may not be required to be invertible. This is…

In this paper we give a new foundational, categorical formulation for operations and relations and objects parameterizing them. This generalizes and unifies the theory of operads and all their cousins including but not limited to PROPs,…

In the previous paper arxiv:math/0610552 semisimple tensor categories were constructed out of certain regular Mal'cev categories. In this paper, we calculate the tensor product multiplicities and the categorical dimensions of the simple…

The structure of the category of matroids and strong maps is investigated: it has coproducts and equalizers, but not products or coequalizers; there are functors from the categories of graphs and vector spaces, the latter being faithful;…

In this paper we introduce the notion of a relative volutive (higher) category, specializing to the notion of a lax volutive (higher) category. Our primary motivation to study these objects is the following: while any rigid symmetric…
