In this paper, the 2-category $\mathfrak{Rep}_{{\bf 2Mat}_{\mathbb{C}}}(\mathbb{G})$ of (weak) representations of an arbitrary (weak) 2-group $\mathbb{G}$ on (some version of) Kapranov and Voevodsky's 2-category of (complex) 2-vector spaces…

In this paper a notion of {\it generalized 2-vector space} is introduced which includes Kapranov and Voevodsky 2-vector spaces. Various kinds of generalized 2-vector spaces are considered and examples are given. The existence of non free…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a finite 2-group. We show that the 2-category $2\mathrm{Rep}(\mathcal{G})$ of finite semisimple 2-representations is a symmetric fusion 2-category. We also relate the auto-equivalence 2-group of the symmetric monoidal…

Ganter and Kapranov associated a 2-character to 2-representations of a finite group. Elgueta classified 2-representations in the category of 2-vector spaces 2Vect_k in terms of cohomological data. We give an explicit formula for the…

This paper describes a relationship between essentially finite groupoids and 2-vector spaces. In particular, we show to construct 2-vector spaces of Vect-valued presheaves on such groupoids. We define 2-linear maps corresponding to functors…

We prove that the theory of representations of a finite 2-group $\mathbb{G}$ in Baez-Crans 2-vector spaces over a field $k$ of characteristic zero essentially reduces to the theory of $k$-linear representations of the group of isomorphism…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

A "2-group" is a category equipped with a multiplication satisfying laws like those of a group. Just as groups have representations on vector spaces, 2-groups have representations on "2-vector spaces", which are categories analogous to…

In this work, we generalize the notion of character for 2-representations of finite 2-groups. The properties of 2-characters bear strong similarities to those classical characters of finite groups, including conjugation invariance,…

We give a concrete description of a strict totally coordinatized version of Kapranov and Voevodsky's 2-category of finite dimensional 2-vector spaces. In particular, we give explicit formulas for composition of 1-morphisms and the two…

A 2-group is a "categorified" version of a group, in which the underlying set G has been replaced by a category and the multiplication map has been replaced by a functor. Various versions of this notion have already been explored; our goal…

Motivated by topological quantum field theory, we investigate the geometric aspects of unitary 2-representations of finite groups on 2-Hilbert spaces, and their 2-characters. We show how the basic ideas of geometric quantization are…

In this paper, we study 2-representations of 2-quantum groups (in the sense of Rouquier and Khovanov-Lauda) categorifying tensor products of irreducible representations. Our aim is to construct knot homologies categorifying…

There is a Rota-Baxter algebra structure on the field $A=\mathbf{k}((t))$ with $ P$ being the projection map $A=\mathbf{k}[[t]]\oplus t^{-1}\mathbf{k}[t^{-1}]$ onto $ \mathbf{k}[[ t]]$. We study the representation theory and…

We deal with the symmetries of a (2-term) graded vector space or bundle. Our first theorem shows that they define a (strict) Lie 2-groupoid in a natural way. Our second theorem explores the construction of nerves for Lie 2-categories,…

We construct a theory of 2-vector bundles over a Lie groupoid, with fibers modeled by the bicategory of super algebras, bimodules and intertwiners. We demonstrate that these 2-vector bundles form a symmetric monoidal 2-stack. From this…

We associate to a 2-vector bundle over an essentially finite groupoid a 2-vector space of parallel sections, or, in representation theoretic terms, of higher invariants, which can be described as homotopy fixed points. Our main result is…

We construct 2-functors from a 2-category categorifying quantum sl(n) to 2-categories categorifying the irreducible representation of highest weight $ 2 \omega_k. $

Let $k$ be a field, $G$ be an abelian group and $r\in \mathbb N$. Let $L$ be an infinite dimensional $k$-vector space. For any $m\in End_k(L)$ we denote by $r(m)\in [0,\infty ]$ the rank of $m$. We define by $R(G,r,k)\in [0,\infty]$ the…

We invesigate the relation between projective and anomalous representations of categories, and show how to any anomaly $J\colon \mathcal{C}\to 2\mathrm{Vect}$ one can associate an extension $\mathcal{C}^J$ of $\mathcal{C}$ and a subcategory…
