SUMMARY:Monoidal Categories (and much more!) - Christina Vasilakopoulou
DTSTART:20111202T140000Z
DTEND:20111202T150000Z
UID:TALK34853@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Guilherme Lima de Carvalho e Silva
DESCRIPTION:The talk will have a little bit of everything: monoidal catego
 ries\, enriched categories (and 2-categories)\, categories of monoids/como
 noids\, categories of modules/comodules… Emphasis will be given at diffe
 rent kind of notions of functors between monoidal categories and interesti
 ng results regarding lax/colax functors and monoidal adjunctions\, 2-cells
  and pasting operations\, “change of base” for enriched categories\, r
 estriction and corestriction of scalars for modules/comodules and applicat
 ions in R-Mod.\n\nRather than sticking to definitions and axioms\, a more 
 relaxed approach will be favoured on these topics\, leading to an understa
 nding of their properties and use in different situations.
