We show that the category of $C_1$-cofinite modules for the universal $N=1$ super Virasoro vertex operator superalgebra $\mathcal{S}(c,0)$ at any central charge $c$ is locally finite and admits the vertex algebraic braided tensor category…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a subcategory of the category of topologized semigroups and their partial continuous homomorphisms. An object $X$ of the category ${\mathcal C}$ is called ${\mathcal C}$-closed if for each morphism $f:X\to Y$ of the…

We introduce a bivariant version of the Cuntz semigroup as equivalence classes of order zero maps generalizing the ordinary Cuntz semigroup. The theory has many properties formally analogous to KK-theory including a composition product. We…

A near-group fusion category is a fusion category C where all but 1 simple objects are invertible. Examples of these include the Tambara-Yamagami categories and the even sectors of the E6 and affine-D5 subfactors, though there are…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be an additive category. The nilpotent category $\mathrm{Nil} (\mathcal{C})$ of $\mathcal{C}$, consists of objects pairs $(X, x)$ with $X\in\mathcal{C}, x\in\mathrm{End}_{\mathcal{C}}(X)$ such that $x^n=0$ for some…

Let $\mathscr{C}$ be a $2$-Calabi-Yau triangulated category with two cluster tilting subcategories $\mathscr{T}$ and $\mathscr{U}$. Results by Demonet-Iyama-Jasso and J{\o}rgensen-Yakimov known as tropical duality says that the index with…

We give a characterization of extremal irreducible discrete subfactors $(N\subseteq M, E)$ where $N$ is type ${\rm II}_1$ in terms of connected W*-algebra objects in rigid C*-tensor categories. We prove an equivalence of categories where…

Let C be a coalgebra over a field k and A its dual algebra. The category of C-comodules is equivalent to a category of A-modules. We use this to interpret the cotensor product M \square N of two comodules in terms of the appropriate…

We prove that the 2-Deligne tensor product of two compact semisimple 2-categories exists. Further, under suitable hypotheses, we explain how to describe the $Hom$-categories, connected components, and simple objects of a 2-Deligne tensor…

C*-quantum groups with projection are the noncommutative analogues of semidirect products of groups. Radford's Theorem about Hopf algebras with projection suggests that any C*quantum group with projection decomposes uniquely into an…

This is a survey on spherical Hopf algebras. We give criteria to decide when a Hopf algebra is spherical and collect examples. We discuss tilting modules as a mean to obtain a fusion subcategory of the non-degenerate quotient of the…

In this paper we study the indecomposable module categories over $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{sl}_N, k)$, the category of integrable level-$k$ respresentations of affine Kac-Moody $\mathfrak{sl}_N$. Our first main result classifies these module…

Tannaka duality and its extensions by Lurie, Sch\"appi et al. reveal that many schemes as well as algebraic stacks may be identified with their tensor categories of quasi-coherent sheaves. In this thesis we study constructions of cocomplete…

Given a Hopf algebra H and an algebra A that is an H-module algebra we consider the category of left H-modules and A-bimodules, where morphisms are just right A-linear maps (not necessarily H-equivariant). Given a twist F of H we then…

We prove that the category 2-$ \mathrm{Grpd}(\mathscr{C}) $ of internal $2$-groupoids is a Birkhoff subcategory of the category $ \mathrm{Grpd}^2(\mathscr{C}) $ of double groupoids in a regular Mal'tsev category $\mathscr{C}$ with finite…

We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture in this context.…

The Grothendieck groups of the categories of finitely generated modules and finitely generated projective modules over a tower of algebras can be endowed with (co)algebra structures that, in many cases of interest, give rise to a dual pair…

We show that the Temperley--Lieb category $\mathbf{TL}(q;\mathbb{C})$ embeds in an ultraproduct of modular tensor categories when $q$ is not a root of unity. As a result, we show that its Drinfeld center is semisimple and describe its…

Given the Hamiltonian realisation of a topological (3+1)d gauge theory with finite group $G$, we consider a family of tensor network representations of its ground state subspace. This family is indexed by gapped boundary conditions encoded…

Motivated by ideas from string theory and quantum field theory new invariants of knots and 3-dimensional manifolds have been constructed from complex algebraic structures such as Hopf algebras (Reshetikhin and Turaev), monoidal categories…
