We define the Hochschild complex and cohomology of a ring object in a monoidal category enriched over abelian groups. We interpret the cohomology groups and prove that the cohomology ring is graded-commutative.

We introduce the notion of `bar category' by which we mean a monoidal category equipped with additional structure formalising the notion of complex conjugation. Examples of our theory include bimodules over a $*$-algebra, modules over a…

The abelian category of tetramodules over an associative bialgebra $A$ is related with the Gerstenhaber-Schack (GS) cohomology as $Ext_\Tetra(A,A)=H_\GS(A)$. We construct a 2-fold monoidal structure on the category of tetramodules of a…

We explore the connection between the notion of Hopf category and the categorification of the infinite dimensional Heisenberg algebra via graphical calculus proposed by M.Khovanov. We show that the existence of a Hopf structure on a…

This article gives a solid theoretical grounding to the observation that cubical structures arise naturally when working with parametricity. We claim that cubical models are cofreely parametric. We use categories, lex categories or clans as…

This is a report on the present state of the problem of determining the dimension of the Nichols algebra associated to a rack and a cocycle. This is relevant for the classification of finite-dimensional complex pointed Hopf algebras whose…

We introduce a noncommutative and noncocommutative Hopf algebra which takes for certain Hopf categories (and therefore braided monoidal bicategories) a similar role as the Grothendieck- Teichmueller group for quasitensor categories. We also…

We introduce and study Hopf monads on autonomous categories (i.e., monoidal categories with duals). Hopf monads generalize Hopf algebras to a non-braided (and non-linear) setting. Indeed, any monoidal adjunction between autonomous…

The main goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of Hopf algebras with the property that either its Jacobson radical is a Hopf ideal or its coradical is a subalgebra. In order to do that we define the Hochschild cohomology of an…

Every smooth manifold contains particles which propagate. These form objects and morphisms of a category equipped with a functor to the category of Abelian groups, turning this into a 0+1 topological field theory. We investigate the…

In this work, the notion of partial representation of a Hopf algebra is introduced and its relationship with partial actions of Hopf algebras is explored. Given a Hopf algebra $H$, one can associate it to a Hopf algebroid $H_{par}$ which…

This paper expands further on a category theoretical formulation of Hochschild cohomology for monoid objects in monoidal categories enriched over abelian groups, which has been studied in arXiv:1605.00842. This topic was also presented at…

We study and relate categories of modules, comodules and contramodules over a representation of a small category taking values in (co)algebras, in a manner similar to modules over a ringed space. As a result, we obtain a categorical…

The codomain category of a generalized homology theory is the category of modules over a ring. For an abelian category A, an A-valued (generalized) homology theory is defined by formally replacing the category of modules with the category…

A well-known, but often ignored issue in Yoneda-style definitions of cohomology objects via collections of $n$-step extensions (i.e., equivalence classes of exact sequences of a given length $n$ between two given objects, usually subject to…

Exact categories are a natural generalisation of abelian categories and provide a fertile ground to develop relative homological algebra. In this paper, starting from a class of relative Gorenstein projective objects in an exact category…

We introduce Hopf categories enriched over braided monoidal categories. The notion is linked to several recently developed notions in Hopf algebra theory, such as Hopf group (co)algebras, weak Hopf algebras and duoidal categories. We…

We classify braided tensor categories over C of exponential growth which are quasisymmetric, i.e., the squared braiding is the identity on the product of any two simple objects. This generalizes the classification results of Deligne on…

Coherence phenomena appear in two different situations. In the context of category theory the term `coherence constraints' refers to a set of diagrams whose commutativity implies the commutativity of a larger class of diagrams. In the…
