Semi-strict 4-categories as enriched categories

John Bourke, Gabriele Lobbia

We introduce several flavours of semi-strict 4-category as enriched categories. This is done using the framework of enrichment over skew monoidal categories of Gray-categories and…

The symmetric skew monoidal structure of Gray-categories

John Bourke, Gabriele Lobbia

In previous work, we constructed a closed skew monoidal structure on the category of Gray-categories and Gray-functors whose internal hom Psd(A, B) captures pseudomaps and pseudo-t…

Canonical differential calculi via functorial geometrization

Keegan J. Flood, Gabriele Lobbia, Giacomo Tendas

Given a category , we establish sufficient conditions on a faithful isofibration valued in the category of mono…

Quantitative Monoidal Algebra: Axiomatising Distance with String Diagrams

Gabriele Lobbia, Wojciech Różowski, Ralph Sarkis +1

String diagrammatic calculi have become increasingly popular in fields such as quantum theory, circuit theory, probabilistic programming, and machine learning, where they enable re…

Sketches and Classifying Logoi

Ivan Di Liberti, Gabriele Lobbia

Inspired by the theory of classifying topoi for geometric theories, we define rounded sketches and logoi and provide the notion of classifying logos for a rounded sketch. Rounded s…

A finite approach to representable multicategories and related structures

Gabriele Lobbia

It is known that monoidal categories have a finite definition, whereas multicategories have an infinite (albeit finitary) definition. Since monoidal categories correspond to repres…

Some Remarks on the Interchange in Gray-categories

Nicola Di Vittorio, Gabriele Lobbia

We prove a generalised interchange equality for 3-cells in a Gray-category, i.e. we show that it still holds modulo the unique isomorphism given by the Gray-categorical pasting the…

A skew approach to enrichment for Gray-categories

John Bourke, Gabriele Lobbia

It is well known that the category of Gray-categories does not admit a monoidal biclosed structure that models weak higher-dimensional transformations. In this paper, the first of…

KZ-pseudomonads and Kan Injectivity

Ivan Di Liberti, Gabriele Lobbia, Lurdes Sousa

We introduce the notion of Kan injectivity in 2-categories and study its properties. For an adequate 2-category , we show that every set of morphisms ind…

Distributive laws for relative monads

Gabriele Lobbia

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 . In order…
