The Brauer category and invariant theory

Gustav I. Lehrer, R. B. Zhang (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

A category of Brauer diagrams, analogous to Turaev’s tangle category, is introduced, a presentation of the category is given, and full tensor functors are constructed from this category to the category of tensor representations of the orthogonal group O ( V ) or the symplectic group Sp ( V ) over any field of characteristic zero. The first and second fundamental theorems of invariant theory for these classical groups are generalised to the category theoretic setting. The major outcome is that we obtain presentations...

The category of compactifications and its coreflections

Anthony W. Hager, Brian Wynne (2022)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We define “the category of compactifications”, which is denoted CM, and consider its family of coreflections, denoted corCM. We show that corCM is a complete lattice with bottom the identity and top an interpretation of the Čech–Stone β . A c corCM implies the assignment to each locally compact, noncompact Y a compactification minimum for membership in the “object-range” of c . We describe the minimum proper compactifications of locally compact, noncompact spaces, show that these generate the atoms...

The category of groupoid graded modules

Patrik Lundström (2004)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We introduce the abelian category R-gr of groupoid graded modules and give an answer to the following general question: If U: R-gr → R-mod denotes the functor which associates to any graded left R-module M the underlying ungraded structure U(M), when does either of the following two implications hold: (I) M has property X ⇒ U(M) has property X; (II) U(M) has property X ⇒ M has property X? We treat the cases when X is one of the properties: direct summand, free, finitely generated, finitely presented,...
