We define a 2-category structure (Pre-Orb) on the category of reduced complex orbifold atlases. We construct a 2-functor F from (Pre-Orb) to the 2-category (Grp) of proper \'etale effective groupoid objects over the complex manifolds. Both…

For $d\geq 1$, we define semibricks and wide subcategories in the $d$-extended hearts of bounded $t$-structures on a triangulated category. We show that these semibricks are in bijection with finite-length wide subcategories. When the…

We develop the Morita theory of fusion 2-categories. In order to do so, we begin by proving that the relative tensor product of modules over a separable algebra in a fusion 2-category exists. We use this result to construct the Morita…

We define a bicategory with \'etale, locally compact groupoids as objects and suitable correspondences, that is, spaces with two commuting actions as arrows; the 2-arrows are injective, equivariant continuous maps. We prove that the usual…

Based on the novel notion of `weakly counital fusion morphism', regular weak multiplier bimonoids in braided monoidal categories are introduced. They generalize weak multiplier bialgebras over fields and multiplier bimonoids in braided…

We consider the localisation of the 2-category of diffeological groupoids at weak equivalences from the perspective of anafunctors, and with this language, prove that the localisation of the 2-category of Lie groupoids is an essentially…

We generalise the usual notion of fibred category; first to fibred 2-categories and then to fibred bicategories. Fibred 2-categories correspond to 2-functors from a 2-category into 2-Cat. Fibred bicategories correspond to trihomomorphisms…

A concise guide to very basic bicategory theory, from the definition of a bicategory to the coherence theorem.

We introduce the notion of a distributive law between a relative monad and a monad. We call this a relative distributive law and define it in any 2-category $\mathcal{K}$. In order to do that, we introduce the 2-category of relative monads…

The bicategorical point of view provides a natural setting for many concepts in the representation theory of monoidal categories. We show that centers of twisted bimodule categories correspond to categories of 2-dimensional natural…

We build a symmetric monoidal and compact closed bicategory by combining spans and cospans inside a topos. This can be used as a framework in which to study open networks and diagrammatic languages. We illustrate this framework with Coecke…

We consider a variant of the notion of Morita equivalence appropriate to weak* closed algebras of Hilbert space operators, which we call {\em weak Morita equivalence}. We obtain new variants, appropriate to the dual algebra setting, of the…

This document is centered around a main idea: simplicial categories, by which we mean simplicial objects in the category of categories, can be treated as a two-fold categorical structure and their double category theory is homotopically…

With a view on applications in computing, in particular concurrency theory and higher-dimensional rewriting, we develop notions of $n$-fold monoid and comonoid objects in $n$-fold monoidal categories and bicategories. We present a series of…

We study the notion of a bifibration in simplicial sets which generalizes the classical notion of two-sided discrete fibration studied in category theory. If $A$ and $B$ are simplicial sets we equip the category of simplicial sets over…

This paper proves three different coherence theorems for symmetric monoidal bicategories. First, we show that in a free symmetric monoidal bicategory every diagram of 2-cells commutes. Second, we show that this implies that the free…

A weak mixed distributive law (also called weak entwining structure) in a 2-category consists of a monad and a comonad, together with a 2-cell relating them in a way which generalizes a mixed distributive law due to Beck. We show that a…

A compact closed bicategory is a symmetric monoidal bicategory where every object is equipped with a weak dual. The unit and counit satisfy the usual "zig-zag" identities of a compact closed category only up to natural isomorphism, and the…

The centre of a monoidal category is a braided monoidal category. Monoidal categories are monoidal objects (or pseudomonoids) in the monoidal bicategory of categories. This paper provides a universal construction in a braided monoidal…

Bicategories of spans are characterized as cartesian bicategories in which every comonad has an Eilenberg-Moore ob ject and every left adjoint arrow is comonadic.
