Free cocompletion of a 2-category under pseudo colimits, lax colimits, and colax colimits

Let $\mathscr K$ be a small 2-category. It follows from $\mathrm{Cat}$-enriched category theory that the free cocompletion of $\mathscr K$ under strict 2-colimits of 2-functors is given by the 2-...

Enriched tensor product of chain complexes

Question (idea): Is there a notion of tensor product of chain complexes in a $\mathcal{V}$-enriched monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$, for $\mathcal{V}$ a linear symmetric monoidal category? Let me ...

Automorphism groups for simple objects in abelian linear categories

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian category that is also $k$-linear, where $k$ is some algebraically closed field. Let $X$ be a simple object in $\mathcal{A}$. What can we say about $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$? I ...

Is there a correction to the failure of geometric morphisms to preserve internal homs?

Given a geometric morphism $$f:\mathscr{F}\to\mathscr{E}$$ where $\mathscr{F},\mathscr{E}$ are toposes, we know that $f^*$ does not preserve internal homs, i.e. $f^*[X,Y]\ncong[f^*X,f^*Y]$. We do have ...

Interpreting a diagram in Borceux-Quinteiro's paper on enriched sheaves

I am somewhat new to working with enriched categories, and have a question about how to interpret Definition 1.2 in Borceux-Quinteiro's paper A theory of enriched sheaves. The authors consider a ...

Large V-categories admitting the construction of V-presheaves

By a result of Foltz, and Freyd and Street, a category $C$ is essentially small (i.e. equivalent to a small category) if and only if both $C$ and $[C^{\text{op}}, \mathrm{Set}]$ are locally small. I ...

Self-enrichment for a closed monoidal bicategory

First, there are two possible generalization of the notion of closed category, vertical and horizontal. I'm interested in the vertical one, something saying, I guess, that a monoidal bicategory $\...

Can every weighted colimit in a $\mathbf{Pos}$-enriched category be rephrased as a conical colimit?

For ordinary category theory, we have the following fact. A weighted colimit of a functor can always be equivalently expressed as a colimit of a different functor. Specifically, the weighted colimit ...

Tensor product of objectwise weak homotopy equivalences of $\mathcal{M}$-spaces

I consider the enriched category $[\mathcal{M}^{op},\mathrm{Top}]$ of enriched functors (I call them $\mathcal{M}$-spaces) from the enriched small category $\mathcal{M}^{op}$ to the enriched category $...

Enriched cofibrant replacement in spectrally enriched categories

If $\mathcal{V}$ is a monoidal model category with all objects cofibrant, Theorem 13.5.2. of Categorical Homotopy Theory will guarantee that the functorial cofibrant replacement of a $\mathcal{V}$-...

Free enriched monoidal categories

Suppose $(\mathcal{V},\otimes,1)$ is a symmetric monoidal category and $\mathbb{C}$ is a $\mathcal{V}$-category. I will deliberately avoid usual powerful assumptions (eg completeness/cocompleteness) ...

Preservation of lax limits in categories of functors and lax natural transformations

Let $f:\mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{D}$ be a functor of 2-categories and let $\operatorname{Fun}(\mathbb{C},\operatorname{Cat})^{\operatorname{lax}}$ denote the 2-category of functors and lax natural ...
