We introduce a generalization of monads, called relative monads, allowing for underlying functors between different categories. Examples include finite-dimensional vector spaces, untyped and typed lambda-calculus syntax and indexed…

This paper concerns spherical adjunctions of stable $\infty$-categories and their relation to monadic adjunctions. We begin with a proof of the 2/4 property of spherical adjunctions in the setting of stable $\infty$-categories. The proof is…

We construct a modular functor which takes its values in the monoidal bicategory of finite categories, left exact functors and natural transformations. The modular functor is defined on bordisms that are 2-framed. Accordingly we do not need…

Let $\&$ be a continuous triangular norm on the unit interval $[0,1]$ and $\mathbf{A}$ be a cartesian closed and stable subconstruct of the category consisting of all real-enriched categories. Firstly, it is shown that the category…

We prove a number of results of the following common flavor: for a category $\mathcal{C}$ of topological or uniform spaces with all manner of other properties of common interest (separation / completeness / compactness axioms), a group (or…

Lax monoidal powerset-enriched monads yield a monoidal structure on the category of monoids in the Kleisli category of a monad. Exponentiable objects in this category are identified as those Kleisli monoids with algebraic structure. This…

In this paper, motivated by the theory of operads and PROPs we reveal the combinatorial nature of tensor calculus for strict tensor categories and show that there exists a monad which is described by the coarse-graining of graphs and…

We prove that the free algebra functor associated to a symmetric, pseudo commutative 2-monad, from the underlying symmetric monoidal 2-category to the 2-category of algebras and pseudo maps over the 2-monad can be enhanced to a…

We consider a closed symmetric monoidal category $\mathcal{M}$. We show that if $I$ is a small category then $\mathcal{M}^I$ is a closed $\mathcal{M}$-module. We rewrite the Yoneda Lemma in the case of monoidal valued functors. We derive an…

We characterize the equational theories and Lawvere theories that correspond to the categories of analytic and polynomial monads on Set, and hence also the categories of the symmetric and rigid operads in Set. We show that the category of…

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…

Categories, n-categories, double categories, and multicategories (among others) all have similar definitions as collections of cells with composition operations. We give an explicit description of the information required to define any…

We develop and extend the theory of Mackey functors as an application of enriched category theory. We define Mackey functors on a lextensive category $\E$ and investigate the properties of the category of Mackey functors on $\E$. We show…

We propose a new description of Endofunctors of Module Categories, based upon a combinatorial category comprising finite sets and so-called mazes. Polynomial and numerical functors both find a natural interpretation in this frame-work.…

One of the main reasons for the correspondence of regular languages and monadic second-order logic is that the class of regular languages is closed under images of surjective letter-to-letter homomorphisms. This closure property holds for…

For functors $L:\A\to \B$ and $R:\B\to \A$ between any categories $\A$ and $\B$, a {\em pairing} is defined by maps, natural in $A\in \A$ and $B\in \B$, $$\xymatrix{\Mor_\B (L(A),B) \ar@<0.5ex>[r]^{\alpha} & \Mor_\A…

Containers are used to carve out a class of strictly positive data types in terms of shapes and positions. They can be interpreted via a fully-faithful functor into endofunctors on Set. Monadic containers are those containers whose…

Let $A$ be a ring and $\M_A$ the category of $A$-modules. It is well known in module theory that for any $A $-bimodule $B$, $B$ is an $A$-ring if and only if the functor $-\otimes_A B: \M_A\to \M_A$ is a monad (or triple). Similarly, an $A…

We study the loop and suspension functors on the category of augmented $\mathbb{E}_n$-algebras. One application is to the formality of the cochain algebra of the $n$-sphere. We show that it is formal as an $\mathbb{E}_n$-algebra, also with…

It is well-known that the category of Kleisli algebras for a monoidal monad carries a canonical monoidal structure. We define the notion of a commutative graded monad and present a strictly two-categorical proof that Kleisli algebras for…
