Categories of functors between categories with partial morphisms

Hans-Jürgen Vogel (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

It is well-known that the composition of two functors between categories yields a functor again, whenever it exists. The same is true for functors which preserve in a certain sense the structure of symmetric monoidal categories. Considering small symmetric monoidal categories with an additional structure as objects and the structure preserving functors between them as morphisms one obtains different kinds of functor categories, which are even dt-symmetric categories.

Categorification of Hopf algebras of rooted trees

Joachim Kock (2013)

Open Mathematics

We exhibit a monoidal structure on the category of finite sets indexed by P-trees for a finitary polynomial endofunctor P. This structure categorifies the monoid scheme (over Spec ℕ) whose semiring of functions is (a P-version of) the Connes-Kreimer bialgebra H of rooted trees (a Hopf algebra after base change to ℤ and collapsing H 0). The monoidal structure is itself given by a polynomial functor, represented by three easily described set maps; we show that these maps are the same as those occurring...

Categorifications of the polynomial ring

Mikhail Khovanov, Radmila Sazdanovic (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We develop a diagrammatic categorification of the polynomial ring ℤ[x]. Our categorification satisfies a version of Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand reciprocity property with the indecomposable projective modules corresponding to xⁿ and standard modules to (x-1)ⁿ in the Grothendieck ring.
