abstract

Q-systems are unitary versions of Frobenius algebra objects which appeared in the theory of subfactors. In recent joint work with R. Hern\'andez Palomares and C. Jones, the authors defined a notion of Q-system completion for C*/W* 2-categories, which is a unitary version of a higher idempotent completion in the spirit of Douglas--Reutter and Gaiotto--Johnson-Freyd. In this article, we prove that Q-system completion is a dagger 3-functor on the dagger 3-category of C*/W* 2-categories. We also prove that Q-system completion satisfies a universal property analogous to the universal property satisfied by idempotent completion for 1-categories.

Orthonormal bases for higher Hilbert spaces

math.QA · 2026-08-11 · conditional · novelty 6.0

For finite-dimensional 3-Hilbert spaces, orthonormal bases exist uniquely up to contractible choice, and the Yoneda embedding into the presheaf 3-Hilbert space is an isometric equivalence.
