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…
It is a well-known fact that the category $\mathsf{Cat}(\mathbf{C})$ of internal categories in a category $\mathbf{C}$ has a description in terms of crossed modules, when $\mathbf{C}=\mathbf{Gr}$ is the category of groups. The proof of this…
Enriched categories are categories whose sets of morphisms are enriched with extra structure. Such categories play a prominent role in the study of higher categories, homotopy theory, and the semantics of programming languages. In this…
In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…
Drawing on well-known results from the theory of canonical extensions and the theory of categories enriched over a quantale, we define canonical extensions of quantale-enriched categories and establish their basic properties.
We present a method of constructing monoidal, braided monoidal, and symmetric monoidal bicategories from corresponding types of monoidal double categories that satisfy a lifting condition. Many important monoidal bicategories arise…
Via the adjunction $ - \boldsymbol{\cdot} 1 \dashv \mathcal V(1,-) \colon \mathsf{Span}(\mathcal V) \to \mathcal V \text{-} \mathsf{Mat} $ and a cartesian monad $ T $ on an extensive category $ \mathcal V $ with finite limits, we construct…
A notion of general manifolds is introduced. It covers all usual manifolds in mathematics. Essentially, it is a way how to get a bigger 'fibration' over a site which locally coincides with a given one. An enrichment with generalized…
A new construction to associate an internal category to an enriched one is presented. The key concept is that of extensive ambient category, and the construction follows the one that associates a category whose idempotents split to a given…
We give a general notion of combinatory completeness with respect to a faithful cartesian club and use it systematically to obtain characterisations of a number of different kinds of applicative system. Each faithful cartesian club…
Category theory unifies mathematical concepts, aiding comparisons across structures by incorporating objects and morphisms, which capture their interactions. It has influenced areas of computer science such as automata theory, functional…
We thoroughly treat several familiar and less familiar definitions and results concerning categories, functors and distributors enriched in a base quantaloid Q. In analogy with V-category theory we discuss such things as adjoint functors,…
We investigate an enriched-categorical approach to a field of discrete mathematics. The main result is a duality theorem between a class of enriched categories (called $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}$- or $\overline{\mathbb{R}}$-categories) and that…
Categories enriched over a commutative unital quantale can be studied as generalized, or many-valued, ordered structures. Because many concepts, such as complete distributivity, in lattice theory can be characterized by existence of certain…
We set up a general theory of weak or homotopy-coherent enrichment in an arbitrary monoidal $\infty$-category $\mathcal{V}$. Our theory of enriched $\infty$-categories has many desirable properties; for instance, if the enriching…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of Grothendieck enriched categories for categories enriched over a sufficiently nice Grothendieck monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$, generalizing the classical notion of Grothendieck categories. Then we…
In the well-known settings of category theory enriched in a monoidal category V, the use of V-enriched functor categories and bifunctors demands that V be equipped with a symmetry, braiding, or duoidal structure. In this paper, we establish…
In this survey paper we give account of several approaches to the strictification and non-strictification of monoidal categories, which are constructions that turn a monoidal category into a (non-)strict one monoidally equivalent to the…
In this work, we establish certain enrichments of dual algebraic structures in the setting of monoidal double categories. In more detail, we obtain a tensored and cotensored enrichment of monads in comonads, as well as a tensored and…
We present a method of constructing symmetric monoidal bicategories from symmetric monoidal double categories that satisfy a lifting condition. Such symmetric monoidal double categories frequently occur in nature, so the method is widely…
