Abstract

We prove that if RR is a G-ring then every fully dualizable RR-linear cocomplete category is equivalent to a twist by a Gm\mathbb{G}_m-gerbe of the category of modules over a finite \'etale RR-algebra. We also show that this holds more generally over an arbitrary commutative ring under an additional compact generation hypothesis. We include variants of these results that apply to RR-linear graded categories, and to the context of \infty-categories linear over connective commutative ring spectra.

The theorem on invertible stable $\infty$-categories is now proven over any truncated connective $E_\infty$-ring
