Some binary quadratic operads are endowed with anticyclic structures and their characteristic functions as anticyclic operads are determined, or conjectured in one case.
The category of (colored) props is an enhancement of the category of colored operads, and thus of the category of small categories. The titular category has nice formal properties: it is bicomplete and is a symmetric monoidal category, with…
We show that the topological Hochschild homology THH(R of an E_n-ring spectrum R is an E_{n-1}-ring spectrum. The proof is based on the fact that the tensor product of the operad Ass for monoid structures and the the little n-cubes operad…
We consider the endomorphism operad of a functor, which is roughly the object of natural transformations from (monoidal) powers of that functor to itself. There are many examples from geometry, topology, and algebra where this object has…
The associative operad is a central structure in operad theory, defined on the linear span of the set of permutations. We build two analogs of the associative operad on the linear span of the set of packed words which turn out to be…
The join operad arises from the combinatorial study of the iterated join of simplices. We study a suitable simplicial version of this operad which includes the symmetries given by permutations of the factors of the join. From this…
We give a definition of an operad with general groups of equivariance suitable for use in any symmetric monoidal category with appropriate colimits. We then apply this notion to study the 2-category of algebras over an operad in Cat. We…
The little $n$-disks operad is $SO(n)$ and $O(n)$-equivariantly formal over the rationals. Equivalently, the oriented and unoriented framed little disks operads are rationally formal as $\infty$-operads.
We introduce a category of locally constant $n$-operads which can be considered as the category of higher braided operads. For $n=1,2,\infty$ the homotopy category of locally constant $n$-operads is equivalent to the homotopy category of…
We construct generalized multicategories associated to an arbitrary operad in Cat that is $\Sigma$-free. The construction generalizes the passage to symmetric multicategories from permutative categories, which is the case when the operad is…
Curved algebras are a generalization of differential graded algebras which have found numerous applications recently. The goal of this foundational article is to introduce the notion of a curved operad, and to develop the operadic calculus…
After an overview of noncommutative differential calculus, we construct parts of it explicitly and explain why this construction agrees with a fuller version obtained from the theory of operads.
We construct a generalization of the Day convolution tensor product of presheaves that works for certain double $\infty$-categories. Using this construction, we obtain an $\infty$-categorical version of the well-known description of…
We introduce bud generating systems, which are used for combinatorial generation. They specify sets of various kinds of combinatorial objects, called languages. They can emulate context-free grammars, regular tree grammars, and synchronous…
We give a framework for comparing on the one hand theories of n-categories that are weakly enriched operadically, and on the other hand n-categories given as algebras for a contractible globular operad. Examples of the former are the…
We study cobordisms of a class of topological operads called ``manifold operads''. These operads are generalizations of the Fulton-MacPherson operad: an operad built from configurations of points in Euclidean space. Cobordism of manifold…
We define a new $E_{\infty}$ operad based on surfaces with foliations which contains $E_k$ sub-operads. We construct CW models for these operads and provide applications of these models by giving actions on Hochschild complexes -thus making…
Recently, many structured tensors are defined and their properties are discussed in the literature. In this paper, we introduce a new class of structured tensors, called exceptionally regular tensor, which is relevant to the tensor…
In this article we present a detailed study of the existing constructions of colilimits in the category of symmetrical operations. In addition, some examples of operads obtained from colimits of other operads are presented.
In this paper, we extend some classes of structured matrices to higher order tensors. We discuss their relationships with positive semi-definite tensors and some other structured tensors. We show that every principal sub-tensor of such a…
