The text is devoted to explanation of the concept of Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT), its application to homological algebra and to the relation with the theory of good section from K.Saito's theory of Primitive forms. TQFT is…
Dynamical quantum field theories (QFTs), such as those in which spacetimes are equipped with a metric and/or a field in the form of a smooth map to a target manifold, can be formulated axiomatically using the language of…
We formalize the arithmetic topology, i.e. a relationship between knots and primes. Namely, using the notion of a cluster C*-algebra we construct a functor from the category of 3-dimensional manifolds M to a category of algebraic number…
We upgrade the classical operation of \textit{isomonodromic deformations} along a path $\gamma$ to a functor $\mathbb{P}_{\gamma}$ between categories of flat connections with logarithmic singularities along a divisor $D$, which itself…
In this paper, we use a topological quantum field theory (TQFT) to define families of new homology theories of a $2$-dimensional CW complex of a smooth closed surface. The dimensions of these homology groups can be used to count the number…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unit. We develop a Hochschild cohomology theory in the category $\mathcal{F}$ of linear functors defined from an essentially small symmetric monoidal category enriched in $R$-Mod, to $R$-Mod. The category…
We construct a state-sum type invariant of smooth closed oriented $4$-manifolds out of a $G$-crossed braided spherical fusion category ($G$-BSFC) for $G$ a finite group. The construction can be extended to obtain a $(3+1)$-dimensional…
We show that reasonably well behaved 3d and 4D TQFts must contain certain algebraic structures. In 4D, we find both Hopf categories and trialgebras.
We give an overview over several constructions of TQFT's over finite fields and cyclotomic integers and their applications to characterizing 3-manifolds and their fundamental groups.
We introduce a class of generalized tube algebras which describe how finite, non-invertible global symmetries of bosonic 1+1d QFTs act on operators which sit at the intersection point of a collection of boundaries and interfaces. We develop…
We identify a categorical structure of the set of all CFTs. In particular, we show that the set of all CFTs has a natural monoidal strict $2$-category structure with the $1$-morphisms being sequences of deformations and $2$-morphisms…
Given an additive equational category with a closed symmetric monoidal structure and a potential dualizing object, we find sufficient conditions that the category of topological objects over that category has a good notion of full…
We show how the categorial approach to inverse monoids can be described as a certain endofunctor (which we call the partialization functor) of some category. In this paper we show that this functor can be used to obtain several recently…
Through the subsequent discussion we consider a certain particular sort of (topological) algebras, which may substitute the `` structure sheaf algebras'' in many--in point of fact, in all--the situations of a geometrical character that…
We develop a cohomological approach to M\"obius inversion using derived functors in the enriched categorical setting. For a poset $P$ and a closed symmetric monoidal abelian category $\mathcal{C}$, we define M\"obius cohomology as the…
We extend the TFT construction of CFT correlators of [arXiv:hep-th/0204148] to so-called finite logarithmic CFTs for which the algebraic input data is no longer semisimple but still finite. More specifically, starting from the data of a…
A type theory is presented that combines (intuitionistic) linear types with type dependency, thus properly generalising both intuitionistic dependent type theory and full linear logic. A syntax and complete categorical semantics are…
We construct a monoidal version of Lurie's un/straightening equivalence. In more detail, for any symmetric monoidal $\infty$-category $\mathbf C$, we endow the $\infty$-category of coCartesian fibrations over $\mathbf C$ with a (naturally…
This paper introduces the concept of gluing in a general category, enabling us to define categories that admit glued-up objects. To achieve this, we introduce the notion of a gluing index category. Subsequently, we provide an entirely…
To understand what does Chern-Simons with compact Lie group(does not like Dijkgraaf-Witten model with finite group in 3d) attach to a point, we first give a construction of Topological Quantum Field Theory(TQFT) via Chern-Simons theory in…
