On the geometric algebras of the Ising model
N. Johnson, D. Marenduzzo, A. Morozov +2
We revisit the classical transfer matrix solution of the one- and two-dimensional Ising model from the perspective of Clifford and conformal geometric algebras. Building on Kaufman…

Invertibility and parity in symmetric monoidal categories
Nick Gurski, Niles Johnson
We introduce a notion of parity for formal morphisms between invertible objects and use it to prove a corresponding coherence theorem. Parity is conceptually similar to the sign of…

Universal pseudomorphisms, with applications to diagrammatic coherence for braided and symmetric monoidal functors
Nick Gurski, Niles Johnson
This work introduces a general theory of universal pseudomorphisms and develops their connection to diagrammatic coherence. The main results give hypotheses under which pseudomorph…
