If you have a question about this talk, please contact Guilherme Lima de Carvalho e Silva.

The talk will have a little bit of everything: monoidal categories, enriched categories (and 2-categories), categories of monoids/comonoids, categories of modules/comodules… Emphasis will be given at different kind of notions of functors between monoidal categories and interesting results regarding lax/colax functors and monoidal adjunctions, 2-cells and pasting operations, “change of base” for enriched categories, restriction and corestriction of scalars for modules/comodules and applications in R-Mod.

Rather than sticking to definitions and axioms, a more relaxed approach will be favoured on these topics, leading to an understanding of their properties and use in different situations.
