Monoidal width was recently introduced by the authors as a measure of the complexity of decomposing morphisms in monoidal categories. We have shown that in a monoidal category of cospans of graphs, monoidal width and its variants can be…

A symmetric monoidal category is a category equipped with an associative and commutative (binary) product and an object which is the unit for the product. In fact, those properties only hold up to natural isomorphisms which satisfy some…

We construct a pairing, which we call factorization homology, between framed manifolds and higher categories. The essential geometric notion is that of a vari-framing of a stratified manifold, which is a framing on each stratum together…

We show that every braiding on a monoidal bicategory induces a monoidal structure on its bicategory of monoids, such that if the former is sylleptic or symmetric then the latter is braided or symmetric, respectively. This extends a classic…

The central object studied in this paper is a multiplier bimonoid in a braided monoidal category C. Adapting the philosophy of Janssen and Vercruysse, and making some mild assumptions on the category C, we consider a category M whose…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

Lenses are a well-established structure for modelling bidirectional transformations, such as the interactions between a database and a view of it. Lenses may be symmetric or asymmetric, and may be composed, forming the morphisms of a…

We investigate the relationship between the algebra of tensor categories and the topology of framed 3-manifolds. On the one hand, tensor categories with certain algebraic properties determine topological invariants. We prove that fusion…

We define bicategories internal to 2-categories. When the ambient 2-category is symmetric monoidal categories, this provides a convenient framework for encoding the structures of a symmetric monoidal 3-category. This framework is well…

This article aims to provide a novel formalization of the concept of computational irreducibility in terms of the exactness of functorial correspondence between a category of data structures and elementary computations and a corresponding…

We study duals for objects and adjoints for $k$-morphisms in $\operatorname{Alg}_n(\mathcal{S})$, an $(\infty,n+N)$-category that models a higher Morita category for $E_n$ algebra objects in a symmetric monoidal $(\infty,N)$-category…

This paper considers the possible underlying multicategories for a symmetric monoidal category, and shows that, up to canonical and coherent isomorphism, there really is only one. As a result, there is a well-defined forgetful functor from…

An object $P$ in a monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$ is called pivotal if its left dual and right dual objects are isomorphic. Given such an object and a choice of dual $Q$, we construct the category $\mathcal{C}(P,Q)$, of objects which…

Cobordism categories are known to be compact closed. They can therefore be used to define non-degenerate models of multiplicative linear logic by combining the Int construction with double glueing. In this work we detail such construction…

This paper formulates a notion of independence of subobjects of an object in a general (i.e. not necessarily concrete) category. Subobject independence is the categorial generalization of what is known as subsystem independence in the…

We study connections between recollements of the derived category D(Mod-R) of a ring R and tilting theory. We first provide constructions of tilting objects from given recollements, recovering several different results from the literature.…

A recollement of triangulated categories describes one such category as being "glued together" from two others. This paper gives a precise criterion for the existence of a recollement of the derived category of a Differential Graded Algebra…

In this paper, we introduce a category of graded commutative rings with certain algebraic morphisms, to investigate the cobordism category of plumbed 3-manifolds. In particular, we define a non-associative distributive algebra that gives…

In this paper we study the category of localizing motives $\operatorname{Mot}^{\operatorname{loc}}$ -- the target of the universal finitary localizing invariant of idempotent-complete stable categories as defined by Blumberg-Gepner-Tabuada.…

String diagrams can nicely express numerous computations in symmetric strict monoidal categories (SSMC). To be entirely exact, this is only true for props: the SSMCs whose monoid of objects are free. In this paper, we show a propification…
