Abstract
We introduce a notion of -categories, which is a refinement of the notion of symmetric monoidal -categories. We use this notion to prove a Tannakian duality statement, relating -categories with fpqc-stacks by means of a certain stack of fiber functors in the context of -categories. This provides, over a base ring of arbitrary characteristic, a strong link between Tannakian -categories and the schematic homotopy types.
