Abstract

Given a domain of characteristic zero RR, we functorially construct a rigid symmetric monoidal stable \infty-category whose K0K_0 is RR, solving a problem of Khovanov. We also functorially construct for any reduced commutative ring RR a rigid braided monoidal stable \infty-category whose K0K_0 is RR.
