This article offers an intuitive introduction to monoidal categories through the lens of painting, presenting abstract mathematical concepts with visual and tactile analogies. Aimed at curious undergraduates and non-specialists, it seeks to…
By using the notion of a rigid R-matrix in a monoidal category and the Reshetikhin--Turaev functor on the category of tangles, we review the definition of the associated invariant of long knots. In the framework of the monoidal categories…
We define two-cocycles and cleft extensions in categories that are not necessarily braided, but where specific objects braid from one direction, like for a Hopf algebra $H$ a Yetter-Drinfeld module braids from the left with $H$-modules. We…
In this article we classify indecomposable objects of the derived categories of finitely-generated modules over certain infinite-dimensional algebras. The considered class of algebras (which we call nodal algebras) contains such well-known…
Let $\k$ be a field and $Q$ a minimal Hopf quiver, i.e., a cyclic quiver or the infinite linear quiver, and let $\rep^{ln}(Q)$ denote the category of locally nilpotent finite dimensional $\k$-representations of $Q.$ The category…
Every fusion category C that is k-linear over a suitable field k, is the category of finite-dimensional comodules of a Weak Hopf Algebra H. This Weak Hopf Algebra is finite-dimensional, cosemisimple and has commutative bases. It arises as…
This is an introduction for algebraists to the theory of algebras and Hopf algebras in braided categories. Such objects generalise super-algebras and super-Hopf algebras, aswell as colour-Lie algebras. Basic facts about braided categories C…
We use representations of braid groups of Coxeter types BC and D to produce invariants of representation categories of quasitriangular coideal subalgebras. Such categories form a prevalent class of braided module categories. This is…
We construct categorifications of tensor products of arbitrary finite-dimensional irreducible representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_k$ with subquotient categories of the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$, generalizing previous work of Sussan and…
We generalize the definition of an exact sequence of tensor categories due to Brugui\`eres and Natale, and introduce a new notion of an exact sequence of (finite) tensor categories with respect to a module category. We give three…
We describe the structure of bimodules (over finite dimensional algebras) which have the property that the functor of tensoring with such a bimodule sends any module to a projective module. The main result is that all such bimodules are…
We classify the module categories over the double (possibly twisted) of a finite group.
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a finite tensor category and $\mathcal{M}$ an exact left $\mathcal{C}$-module category. We call $\mathcal{M}$ unimodular if the finite multitensor category ${\sf Rex}_{\mathcal{C}}(\mathcal{M})$ of right exact…
We present a categorical model for intuitionistic linear logic where objects are polynomial diagrams and morphisms are simulation diagrams. The multiplicative structure (tensor product and its adjoint) can be defined in any locally…
The Drinfel'd double D(A) of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra A is a Hopf algebraic counterpart of the monoidal center construction. Majid introduced an important representation of the Drinfel'd double, which he called the Schr\"odinger…
Category is put to work in the non-associative realm in the article. We focus on a typical example of non-associative category. Its objects are octonionic bimodules, morphisms are octonionic para-linear maps, and compositions are…
This is a continuation of the paper "Modular tensor categories and orbifold theories", arXiv:math.QA/0104242. It discusses orbifold models of conformal filed theory, or, in mathematical language, question of constructing the category of…
These notes are meant to provide a rapid introduction to triangulated categories. We start with the definition of an additive category and end with a glimps of tilting theory. Some exercises are included.
For an arbitrary simple Lie algebra $\g$ and an arbitrary root of unity $q,$ the closed subsets of the Weyl alcove of the quantum group $U_q(\g)$ are classified. Here a closed subset is a set such that if any two weights in the Weyl alcove…
In conformal field theory the understanding of correlation functions can be divided into two distinct conceptual levels: The analytic properties of the correlators endow the representation categories of the underlying chiral symmetry…
