We explore the relationship between polynomial functors and (rooted) trees. In the first part we use polynomial functors to derive a new convenient formalism for trees, and obtain a natural and conceptual construction of the category…

We exhibit a monoidal structure on the category of finite sets indexed by P-trees for a finitary polynomial endofunctor P. This structure categorifies the monoid scheme (over Spec N) whose semiring of functions is (a P-version of) the…

In this paper we discuss some enlargements of the category of sets with semigroup actions and equivariant functions. We show that these enlarged categories possess two idempotent endofunctors. In the case of groups these enlarged categories…

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…

The groups G_{k,1} of Richard Thompson and Graham Higman can be generalized in a natural way to monoids, that we call M_{k,1}, and to inverse monoids, called Inv_{k,1}; this is done by simply generalizing bijections to partial functions or…

For an associative ring $R$, let $P$ be an $R$-module with $S=\End_R(P)$. C.\ Menini and A. Orsatti posed the question of when the related functor $\Hom_R(P,-)$ (with left adjoint $P\ot_S-$) induces an equivalence between a subcategory of…

In [arXiv:1509.02937], the notion of a module tensor category was introduced as a braided monoidal central functor $F\colon \mathcal{V}\longrightarrow \mathcal{T}$ from a braided monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ to a monoidal category…

This paper studies fundamental questions concerning category-theoretic models of induction and recursion. We are concerned with the relationship between well-founded and recursive coalgebras for an endofunctor. For monomorphism preserving…

Let $k$ be a regular ring, and let $A,B$ be essentially finite type $k$-algebras. For any functor $F:{D}(A)\times\dots\times{D}(A)\to{D}(B)$ between their derived categories, we define its twist…

In this work we construct an extension for the category of 0-modules by analogy with [H.-J. Baues and G. Wirshing, Cohomology of small categories, J. Pure Appl. Algebra, 38(1985), 187-211]. The 0-cohomology functor becomes a derived functor…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unit. We develop a Hochschild cohomology theory in the category $\mathcal{F}$ of linear functors defined from an essentially small symmetric monoidal category enriched in $R$-Mod, to $R$-Mod. The category…

In the theory of coalgebras $C$ over a ring $R$, the rational functor relates the category of modules over the algebra $C^*$ (with convolution product) with the category of comodules over $C$. It is based on the pairing of the algebra $C^*$…

We provide a multiplicative classification of polynomial endofunctors on spectra in terms of their Mackey functors of cross--effects. More precisely, we prove that various categories of multivariable excisive functors from spectra to…

Voevodsky's derived category of motives is the main arena today for the study of algebraic cycles and motivic cohomology. In this paper we study whether the inclusions of three important subcategories of motives have a left or right…

In 1994, Long and Moody gave a construction on representations of braid groups which associates a representation of \mathbf{B}\_{n} with a representation of \mathbf{B}\_{n+1}. In this paper, we prove that this construction is functorial and…

We study polynomial functors over locally cartesian closed categories. After setting up the basic theory, we show how polynomial functors assemble into a double category, in fact a framed bicategory. We show that the free monad on a…

Knop constructed a tensor category associated to a finitely-powered regular category equipped with a degree function. In recent work with Harman, we constructed a tensor category associated to an oligomorphic group equipped with a measure.…

We construct a symmetric monoidal closed category of polynomial endofunctors (as objects) and simulation cells (as morphisms). This structure is defined using universal properties without reference to representing polynomial diagrams and is…

Let $W$ be the Weyl group of a split semisimple group $G$. Its Hecke category $\mathsf{H}_W$ can be built from pure perverse sheaves on the double flag variety of $G$. By developing a formalism of generalized realization functors, we…

A pair of biadjoint functors between two categories produces a collection of elements in the centers of these categories, one for each isotopy class of nested circles in the plane. If the centers are equipped with a trace map into the…
