Title: Semi-direct product of categories and a Schur's lemma for categorical representations (Part II)
Venue and time: PSB Seminar Hall | 03:00 PM (GMT +5:30), Saturday, 23rd April, 2022
Abstract: We develop a theory of twisted actions of categorical groups using a notion of semidirect product of categories. Turning to representations, which are actions that respect vector space structures, we establish an analog of Schur's lemma in this context.
