Orthonormal bases for higher Hilbert spaces
Giovanni Ferrer, Brett Hungar, David Penneys +1
In our previous article [arxiv:2410.05120], we introduced the notion of a finite dimensional 3-Hilbert space, categorifying Baez's 2-Hilbert spaces. In this article, by further cat…
The many faces of higher Hilbert spaces
Giovanni Ferrer, Lukas Müller, David Penneys +1
Finite-dimensional operator algebras can be viewed as , , or -algebras, leading to different notions for their categories of modules and c…
The Homotopy 3-Type of Abelian C*-Algebras
Gregory Faurot, Giovanni Ferrer
We compute the homotopy groups at each unital abelian C*-algebra in the Morita -category of abelian C*-algebras, C*-algebras with central maps, C*-correspondences, and ad…
Manifestly unitary higher Hilbert spaces
Quan Chen, Giovanni Ferrer, Brett Hungar +2
Higher idempotent completion gives a formal inductive construction of the -category of finite dimensional -vector spaces starting with the complex numbers. We propose a manif…
