Higher Lawvere theories

Abstract: We survey Lawvere theories at the level of 8-categories, as an alternative framework for higher algebra (rather than 8-operads). From a pedagogical perspective, they make many key definitions and constructions less technical. They are also better-suited than operads for equivariant homotopy theory and its relatives.Our main result establishes a universal property for the 8-category of Lawvere theories, which completely characterizes the relationship between a Lawvere theory and its 8-category of models. Many f… Show more

“…Moreover, for each semiring category R on this list, the forgetful functor Mod R Ñ SymMon is fully faithful; that is, being an R-module is a property of a symmetric monoidal category, rather than containing extra structure. These properties are as follows: However, we will delay the last result (that Burn-modules are additive categories) until a sequel [5]. Although it is possible to prove using similar techniques to those in this paper (and we invite the reader to do so), the proof is more ad hoc.…”
