On Categorification

چکیده
We review several known categorification procedures, and introduce a functorial categorification of group extensions with applications to non-abelian group cohomology. Categorification of acyclic models and of topological spaces are briefly mentioned.

A GEOMETRIC CATEGORIFICATION OF TENSOR PRODUCTS OF Uq(sl2)-MODULES
We give a purely geometric categorification of tensor products of finite-dimensional simple Uq(sl2)-modules and R-matrices on them. The work is developed in the framework of category of perverse sheaves and the categorification theorems are understood as consequences of Deligne’s theory of weights.
متن کاملCategorification and Groupoidification of the Heisenberg Algebra
These lectures, prepared for Higher Structures in China III, held in Changchun, Aug 2012, describe a relationship between two forms of categorification of algebras by giving a combinatorial model for Khovanov’s categorification of the Heisenberg algebra in a 2-category of spans of groupoids. This is joint work with Jamie Vicary. The goal here is to describe two notions of “categorifying an alge...

متن کاملThe Categorification of a Symmetric Operad is Independent of Signature
Given a symmetric operad P , and a signature (or generating sequence) Φ for P , we define a notion of the categorification (or weakening) of P with respect to Φ. When P is the symmetric operad whose algebras are commutative monoids, with the standard signature, we recover the notion of symmetric monoidal categories. We then show that this categorification is independent (up to equivalence) of t...
متن کاملHéctor Bland́in and Rafael Díaz March 6 , 2008
Let Cat be the category whose objects are small categories (categories whose collection of objects are sets) and whose morphisms Cat(C,D) from category C to category D are functors F : C → D. Let Set be the category whose objects are sets and given x, y ∈ Ob(Set) morphisms in Set from x to y are maps f : x → y. We define an equivalence relation IsoC on Ob(C) as follows: two objects x and y are ...
