Internalizing decorated bicategories: The globularily generated condition

Abstract

This is the first part of a series of papers studying the problem of existence of double categories for which horizontal bicategory and object category are given. We refer to this problem as the problem of existence of internalizations for decorated bicategories. We establish a formal framework within which the problem of existence of internalizations can be correctly formulated. Further, we introduce the condition of a double category being globularily generated. We prove that the problem of existence of internalizations for a decorated bicategory admits a solution if and only if it admits a globularily generated solution, and we prove that the condition of a double category being globularily generated is precisely the condition of a solution to the problem of existence of internalizations for a decorated bicategory being minimal. The study of the condition of a double category being globularily generated will thus be pivotal in our study of the problem of existence of internalizations.

A model structure for cartesian 2-fibrations

Cartesian 2-fibrations provide a way to understand indexed categories, but their classical ``straightening'' construction requires several layers of weak coherence data. This paper develops a homotopical framework that replaces much of this bookkeeping with a fully strict model. By using marked 2-categories to record the cartesian morphisms and 2-cells, we construct a model structure whose fibrant objects are precisely the cartesian 2-fibrations over a fixed 2-category $\mathcal{C}$. We then show that the marked Grothendieck construction identifies these 2-fibrations, up to weak equivalence, with strict 2-functors from $\mathcal{C}$ into $2\mathrm{Cat}$. As an additional contribution, we construct localizations of 2-categories that simultaneously invert selected morphisms and 2-cells.

A Natural Fuzzy Order on Fuzzy Numbers

This paper introduces a natural fuzzy order on fuzzy numbers that extends the natural orders on real numbers and interval numbers. We investigate its completeness properties and show that the space of uniformly bounded fuzzy numbers is conically complete and conically cocomplete, and that it is complete if and only if the underlying continuous t-norm is the G\"odel t-norm. Moreover, it is proved that this space constitutes a \([0,1]\)-enriched domain if and only if the underlying continuous t-norm satisfies the (S) condition. These results provide a foundation for ordering fuzzy numbers.

Noetherian forms of free non-symmetric operads

In this paper, we study certain categories of labeled finite rooted ordered trees over a fixed set of labels where each label is equipped with an arity: a fixed number of children that the vertex with the given label must have. Equivalently, these are expression trees for operations in a free non-symmetric operad. A morphism between these trees matches a pruning of one tree (a prefix) with an entire subtree of another (a suffix). We characterize such categories, up to isomorphism, in terms of suitable exactness properties. It turns out that these categories exhibit strong algebraic behavior, in the sense that every such category, when appended with a strict initial object, has a particularly nice noetherian form.
