Certain aspects of Street's formal theory of monads in 2-categories are extended to multimonoidal monads in symmetric strict monoidal 2-categories. Namely, any symmetric strict monoidal 2-category $\mathcal M$ admits a symmetric strict…

This paper charts a very direct path between the categorical approach to quantum mechanics, due to Abramsky and Coecke, and the older convex-operational approach based on ordered vector spaces (recently reincarnated as "generalized…

We exhibit a functor from the category OUS of order unit spaces and positive, unit-preserving mappings into the category $\Prob$ of probabilistic models (test spaces with designated state spaces) and morphisms thereof. Restricted to any…

An operad describes a category of algebras and a (co)homology theory for these algebras may be formulated using the homological algebra of operads. A morphism of operads $f:\mathcal{O}\rightarrow\mathcal{P}$ describes a functor allowing a…

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…

It is well known that strict $\omega$-categories, strict $\omega$-functors, strict natural $\omega$-transformations, and so on, form a strict $\omega$-category. A similar property for weak $\omega$-categories is one of the main hypotheses…

It is proved that the category of simplicial complete bornological spaces over $\mathbb R$ carries a combinatorial monoidal model structure satisfying the monoid axiom. For any commutative monoid in this category the category of modules is…

We provide general conditions under which the algebras for a coloured operad in a monoidal model category carry a Quillen model structure, and prove a Comparison Theorem to the effect that a weak equivalence between suitable such operads…

The associative operad is a certain algebraic structure on the sequence of group algebras of the symmetric groups. The weak order is a partial order on the symmetric group. There is a natural linear basis of each symmetric group algebra,…

The goal of this paper is to prove coherence results with respect to relational graphs for monoidal monads and comonads, i.e. monads and comonads in a monoidal category such that the endofunctor of the monad or comonad is a monoidal functor…

We give conditions on a monoidal model category M and on a set of maps C so that the Bousfield localization of M with respect to C preserves the structure of algebras over various operads. This problem was motivated by an example that…

We exhibit sufficient conditions for a monoidal monad T on a monoidal category C to induce a monoidal structure on the Eilenberg--Moore category C^T that represents bimorphisms. The category of actions in C^T is then shown to be monadic…

In this paper we show how to modify cofibrations in a monoidal model category so that the tensor unit becomes cofibrant while keeping the same weak equivalences. We obtain aplications to enriched categories and coloured operads in stable…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital separable simple amenable \CA s which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Suppose {that} $A$ and $B$ are $\mathcal Z$-stable and are of rationally tracial rank no more than one. We prove the following:…

We introduce the $\mathcal{T}$-construction, an endofunctor on the category of generalized operads as a general mechanism by which various notions of plethystic substitution arise from more ordinary notions of substitution. In the special…

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 introduce a bialgebra axiom for a pair $(c,\ell)$ of a colax-monoidal and a lax-monoidal structures on a functor $F\colon \mathscr{M}_1\to \mathscr{M}_2$ between two (strict) symmetric monoidal categories. This axiom can be regarded as a…

Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a combinatorial and left proper model category, possibly with a monoidal structure. If $\mathscr{O}$ is either a monad on $\mathscr{M}$ or an operad enriched over $\mathscr{M}$, define a QS-algebra in $\mathscr{M}$ to…

We give a short topological proof of coherence for categorified non-symmetric operads by using the fact that the diagrams involved form the 1-skeleton of simply connected CW complexes. We also obtain a "one-step" topological proof of Mac…

We develop an alternative to the May-Thomason construction used to compare operad based infinite loop machines to that of Segal, which relies on weak products. Our construction has the advantage that it can be carried out in $Cat$, whereas…
